Glasgow Film Festival - Multiple roles available!

• Glasgow Film (Glasgow Film Theatre & Glasgow Film Festival)

• VO101961

For the past 20 years that the festival has run we have had an amazing team of volunteers who help with different important roles around the festival making it a success. They’ve gotten a behind-the-scene view of a film festival while building skills in dealing with the public and creating connections. And this year you could be joining them!

There are many different elements to volunteering at Glasgow Film Festival, there’s something for everyone! While there are certain things we expect from all volunteers such as keeping our venues safe and being a friendly face, each volunteer will be assigned a role and team that they will be part of. Below is a snapshot of the teams you can be part of:

Usher: The largest of our festival teams! You would be helping guide our audience in and out of screens and provide information about the festival.
Industry: If you’re passionate about the filmmaking world, help with our industry events and screenings aimed for guests, delegates and filmmakers.
Press: We host a range of different events over the festival which you could help with as well as helping to set up the red carpet.
Pop-Up Events and Red Carpet: We host a range of different events over the festival which you could help with as well as helping to set up the red carpet.
Audience Award and Q&A: If you like being up close and personal with our audience either collecting their voting ballots or assisting with microphones this is for you!
Runner: For those that like a new adventure each time, you could be covering a shift, helping with ad hoc tasks or assisting different teams as needed.

Whether you have volunteered before or this would be your first time, whether you have a curated Letterboxd top 4 or just enjoy helping others, we want you to be part of GFF25. However, we do have some minimum requirements which are:
