Job description

Founded 24 years ago, Theirworld has grown to become a leading global children’s charity committed to the best start in life for children and young people by ending the education crisis and unleashing the potential of the next generation.

If you care about issues like climate change, gender equality, inclusion, helping refugees and ensuring the voices of young people are represented at all levels of decision-making, then education is the key to unlocking big change in these areas. If you want to make change happen, join us!

We believe in unlocking big change from a supportive and inclusive environment. This is why we now have an innovative 4-day-working-week which sees all employees working Monday to Thursday with the office closed on most Fridays.

This is in addition to hybrid working, with staff only expected to be in the office for three days over a two-week period.

Other benefits include:

• Regular in-house training
• Travel
• Central London location: 5 mins from Liverpool St Station and Shoreditch High Street
• Highly competitive salaries, plus more
• Cycle to work scheme
• Home office expense allowance
• Life Insurance
• Season ticket loan scheme

About the role

Theirworld is seeking a Studio Assistant to support the smooth running of our in-house Creative Studio.

Our Creative Studio produces high-quality visual content that supports the charity’s campaigning, advocacy, fundraising and project work — including video, infographics, digital and social media assets, brand materials, marketing collateral and research reports.

The Studio Assistant will provide day-to-day support on studio operations and assist with projects, asset management and creative production. This is a hands-on role ideal for someone at the beginning of their creative career — but with scope for growth into project coordination and production for the right candidate.

Reporting to our Director of Communications, you will work closely with our Studio Manager and colleagues across the ten-strong Marketing and Communications team, as well as internal teams, external designers, editors and other creative suppliers.

Main responsibilities

The Studio Assistant will support activities, including but not limited to:

Studio Support and Coordination

• Assist with the flow of creative briefs through the studio, ensuring timelines, priorities and deliverables are tracked
• Support the Studio Manager with project trackers, approvals, and stakeholder updates
• Liaise with internal teams to gather information and assets for creative projects.

Content and Production Support

• Assist with preparing and formatting assets for use across digital and print platforms.
• Support production of digital assets (social media graphics, simple video edits, branded templates)
• Ensure all materials meet brand standards

Freelancer and Supplier Support

• Help with briefs, contracts, and timelines for freelancers and suppliers
• Maintain contact lists and support communications with creative partners

Studio Operations

• Assist with our digital asset libraries, file naming conventions and archiving
• Track usage rights and maintain version control across projects

Experience, skills and character

• Determined, enthusiastic and proactive “can do” attitude
• Strong organisational skills and ability to juggle multiple projects
• Interest or experience in creative production workflows (design, video, animation, or content creation)
• Excellent communication skills and a collaborative working style.
• Confident with digital tools (MS Office essential; any experience with design software, project management tools like Monday.com, or creative production platforms is an advantage)
• A problem-solving mindset with the ability to take initiative
• At least one year of experience in creative, design, marketing, communications, or project coordination (in-house or agency) is desirable — but passion and aptitude are equally valued

Starting at £27,000+ based on qualifications and experience.
