  • Attention to detail and ability to provide constructive feedback
  • Ability to work independently and as part of a team

Your location:

Benefits:

  • Gain evidence of your scriptreading – we track your reading and reviews so you have evidence of your abilities

Application process

Join our community of script readers and help us discover the next great storyteller! We’d love to have a diverse range of readers to truly reflect audiences

Once you sign up as a volunteer, we will suggest a window or period of time that would be suitable for you to volunteer. We can discuss the length of volunteer and ways of working and naturally you can stop at any point.

To apply, please complete the form on our page. We don’t ask for a CV but do ask for your experience in reading and rating stories and your motivation. All levels of experience are welcome as we can help you develop.

We will be carrying out video interviews the weeks of 9th and 30th October (no interviews 16-29 October).

Next steps for ScriptReader.studio

It’s been a while since our last update on ScriptReader.studio but that’s because we’ve been doing a huge amount of work behind the scenes.

Thanks to our early Beta testers we’ve made some changes to how things run and improved how we can analyse results. We’ve also had an important vote of confidence from a major organisation that we can’t disclose here but has made us very excited.
