Represent the editorial team to the actors at rehearsal, answering any character voice or story points
Act as first point of contact for urgent, production critical queries from the studio or EFP floor

About you

Significant practical experience in serial drama script work, or transferable skills at an equivalent level
A good understanding of serial drama, its inherent heavy workload and high-volume quick turnaround
Strong dramatic instincts with exceptional language and communication skills
Enthusiasm for, and understanding of, Fair City
Ambition for increasing the role of Fair City within Irish culture
Team instincts, with an imaginative approach to problem solving
A good standard of education and background in language and literature is desirable

Closing date for receipt of applications is: Thursday 18th June 2026.

Cuirfear fáilte roimh iarratais ó dhaoine go bhfuil dearcadh dearfach acu i leith na Gaeilge. Applications are welcome from people who have a positive outlook to Irish.
