Team PB have more opportunities for the right people. (Open to Ex Armed Forces based in the UK only)

As more productions start gearing up this year, more quality Military Technical Advisers are required on the team.

Team PB does not take anyone, and you will need to read a simple set of instructions before applying.

Most importantly, you must have worked on set as a supporting artist on at least three features and three TV productions. Six jobs in total. A list of some of the main extra agencies to join are at the bottom of this page.

Open to former members of HM forces only. (Proof of service required).

1. Must have good availability and can react to fastball call outs.

2. Willing to travel worldwide and for prolonged periods. Some overseas productions can last from eight weeks to six months.

4. The ability to communicate at all levels and be respectful to others. The firm but fair approach.

5. Good work ethics. Trust and respect towards the production crew and the company providing you work opportunities.

6. The ability to read simple instructions and act on them without supervision, but also the ability to work unaided.

7. DBS check required.
