Description

‘Screen Education Edinburgh was so important to my life because it made me realise that not only was it possible to have a full-time career in the arts, it was possible for me personally to have the confidence and the skills to go out and get one.’ - SEE Alumni

Who we are: 

Screen Education Edinburgh (SEE) is dedicated to filmmaking for all, delivering high quality learning, training and production programmes that develop skills, knowledge and opportunities for young people, adult learners, schools, communities, and film talent. Through a progressive pathway of increased development of learners of all ages, our programmes increase confidence, wellbeing, attainment, film knowledge and skills, and enable progression towards further and higher education study, and into the film, tv and media workplace. 

Our request: 

Recently, SEE has adopted Salesforce as our CRM solution, recognising its potential to efficiently manage our data and amplify our outreach efforts. However, to fully leverage its capabilities, we need assistance integrating Salesforce with our current systems, including:

  • Microsoft 365 Teams  (Outlook)
  • Mailchimp

We're seeking a dedicated volunteer who can help us:

  • Seamlessly install and configure integrations to ensure smooth communication between Salesforce and our other platforms.
  • Provide expert guidance on optimising Salesforce to support our organisational goals.
  • Enhance processes to boost efficiency and effectiveness.
  • Help identify cost-effective solutions to ensure long-term sustainability.

Who we are looking for:

  • Proficiency in Salesforce administration and integration.
  • Experience integrating Salesforce with various platforms, preferably including those listed above.
  • Strong problem-solving skills and meticulous attention to detail.

At SEE filmmaking isn't just about storytelling—it is a vehicle for instilling confidence, amplifying voices, and breaking down barriers. With Salesforce, we are seeking technical expertise and inviting kindred spirits to join us in making filmmaking accessible to all.

Background: 

Scotland's oldest filmmaking organisation (previously known as Pilton Video), over the past four decades we have specialised in developing people from areas of deprivation and low-income backgrounds, those living with a disability, and those from diverse backgrounds, giving access to the artform, and nurturing new and undiscovered talent. Yearround, we support those passionate about filmmaking in Edinburgh and surrounding areas through low-cost equipment hire, meeting, rehearsal, screening, and small studio space at our multi-purpose learning and production base in North Edinburgh, with our learning, training and production programmes delivered at our base, and through outreach activity across the city and beyond, or through virtual learning.

We have a rich history of producing inclusive drama and documentary films focused on the lives of those from underrepresented communities, with our films screening on TV, online and at film festivals globally, winning numerous BAFTA and festival awards. 

We deliver film productions for public, voluntary, and social enterprise sector clients, including event, corporate, training and information films, with our unique approach involving learners from underrepresented backgrounds being integrated into each production team, further developing their skills, knowledge, and employability.
