Project & Studio Coordinator

Salary Band: Band 1 - Entry level (£23-25k)

Job Overview:

We’re a digital agency delivering campaigns that turn heads across web, motion and social.

We run lean and move fast. Every time you chase an invoice, wrangle a schedule, or keep a small account ticking, you give our senior team the headspace to deliver the high-impact creative work we’re known for.

You’ll see every corner of the business — client accounts, project lifecycles, studio culture — and build the foundations for a future in project management, account management, or beyond.

It’s an entry point into the industry with variety baked in.

Important: You must drive and be within a 45 minute commute of Padiham (BB12 8BN) as the role is hybrid on a 2 day per week office schedule.

**IMPORTANT - HUMAN FILTER**

We unfortunately get lots of automated applications, so we're looking for the human touch.

This means we will not accept applications that are not accompanied with a separate email to work@tone.co.uk. The spammers won't read this far :)

In your email, tell us 3 things:

1. The last time you picked up a new skill. What was it (can be ballet, badminton, business or boules) and why did you decide to learn it?

2. Tell us about your most enjoyable relationship at work with a colleague or client. What did you do to nurture that and how did it help the business (or education place if you're a graduate?)

3. Are you logic brain or creative brain? No right or wrong answer, if you're logic tell us about the last time you grabbed a system or process by the scruff of the neck - home or work - and improved it. If creative, tell us about the most creative thing you've completed in the past 6 months.
