I am very happy to recommend Sam James, who worked as a Floor Runner on a recent Channel 4 docudrama I produced.
Sam did an excellent job of looking after our cast and supporting artists, making sure everyone was comfortable, informed, and in the right place at the right time. He is organised, reliable, and hardworking, and his calm, composed energy kept things running smoothly on set.
He works brilliantly with the team, always goes above and beyond his role, and approaches every task with a positive, can-do attitude. These qualities make him especially well-suited for a Runner position, where being proactive, adaptable, and supportive is essential. On top of that, Sam’s warm personality and great sense of humour made him an asset to have on set and he was well liked by cast and crew alike.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Sam for future roles — any production team would be lucky to have him.
