Runner

Description

Lionsgate Alternative Television UK is looking to hear from experienced Production Runners to join the team for the studio record of a returning gameshow format for a US broadcaster.

Multiple roles available.

Dates: Various contracts from October – December 2026

We are looking for brilliant, experienced Runners to support the team throughout a busy, high-volume studio record.

Previous professional Runner experience is essential for these roles, ideally within studio entertainment, gameshows, quiz formats or similarly fast-paced productions. Applicants should already be confident working on busy shoots and understand what is required to keep a large studio production running smoothly. Just as importantly, we want people who contribute positively to the team around them. We work hard, but we also believe productions should be run with kindness and respect.

The role may include:

- Supporting the production team throughout rehearsals and studio record days
- Managing crew, talent and contestant movements around the studio
- Completing production runs and collections across London
- Distributing and managing radios, call sheets, schedules and production paperwork
- Supporting studio set-up and maintaining production areas throughout the record
- Coordinating refreshments, lunches and crew welfare requirements
- Assisting with production purchases, petty cash and receipts where required
- Supporting green rooms, production offices and other backstage areas
- Liaising confidently with production, editorial, technical and studio departments
- Responding quickly and calmly to requests during busy record days
- Helping ensure production areas remain organised, stocked and ready throughout the shoot
- Getting stuck in wherever required to support the wider team

We are looking for people who are:

- Experienced and confident
- Friendly, proactive and highly organised
- Reliable and able to think on their feet
- Strong communicators who are comfortable working with a large crew
- Calm and professional in a fast-paced studio environment
- Happy to get stuck in and help across departments when needed

Studio record days may involve early starts and/or late finishes, so applicants must be comfortable with the working patterns associated with studio production.

Recent professional Runner experience is essential. Gameshow or studio entertainment experience would be particularly advantageous.

Lionsgate Alternative Television UK is an inclusive employer. We are committed to sharing job opportunities with creative, diverse talent working in the industry. We particularly welcome applications from underrepresented groups.
