Picture taken from the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Windmill. - Benjamin LaveryMaverick have always had a deep love for working with new people and helping everyone to tapping into their talents. Since we opened in 1995 we've made talented and motivated people the lifeblood of Maverick and in return we've provided a great supportive environment for ambitious and creative people to get unique opportunities and develop their careers. As Maverick's work develops further into exciting new places, particularly in the games industry, we have lots of openings for us to start bringing more new people with the knowledge, fresh thinking, creativity and skills that can help us grow and become the World’s best video games trailer makers - which is our company Mission.
This month we're launching a scheme called the Maverick New Talent Programme and are seeking out Candidates to apply. It involves us giving people a unique hands-on learning experience across a range of areas of our business - particularly New Business / Marketing, Creative/Production and Media Technologies and in return give their ideas, energy, enthusiasm, hard work and input onto both our client and internal projects - oh and they also get paid £17,000 p.a. pro rata while on the Programme.
The Programme will consist of a series of between one and three 3 month “Modules” that Candidates move through - each designed to give the Candidate the opportunity to develop new skills demonstrate their particular talents and enthusiasms. While the Programme does not guarantee employment to all that get accepted on it, Maverick will make available as many job opportunities as possible to Candidates and if there are no immediate openings it will certainly build future relationships for both parties.
We're looking for the best applicants - individuals who are self-starting, ambitious, confident and who have already achieved stand-out within a related creative/media/business/techology area and who show potential for management, leadership, great creative skills and more. So if you think you have these kinds of skills, (particularly in the areas of creative, media production, project management, sales and games generally), and if you have the energy and determination to step up, work hard and "make it happen" then we'd be interested in hearing from you.
We've already taken our first Candidate, Rebecca Gower, who is working on her first Placement and will be posting a piece later this month outlining her experiences.
The deadline for applications for our Quarter 1 Programme is 6th Jan 2011 with Interviews planned for w/c 17th Jan.
To apply email Will Jeffery, Managing Director with Subject Header "I'm a Maverick's New Talent Programme Applicant" will.jeffery@maverickmedia.co.uk together with your CV and covering letter outlining your talents and achievements together with your thoughts on how you see your career could develop through being on the New Talent Programme.
Beer o' clock in the Maverick office and Intern Gemma brings us all Hummingbird Bakery cupcakes along with the booze delivery. Definitely a way to go far in the industry. Red Velvet and Red Wine nice end o' week combo!
It is National Baking Week so @MaverickTeam felt absolutely compelled to roll in flour, churn butter, crack some eggs and provide our clients with a grand old sugar rush AND an exciting competition!!
We baked tasty cakes and cookies (Mmmmmm...!) on which we placed ten famous video game quotations.
The fastest person to identify the ten games and email the correct answers after will win some Champagne for their team!
The cakes are on the way!
