Description

Mediorite is a video production company and social enterprise. As part of their social enterprise, Mediorite provides free training to young and diverse people in the skills they need to follow a creative career, empowering them to pursue a career in the film industry. Past projects include training courses in prisons, schools, and colleges.

Mediorite is working to improve pre-production efficiency and editor workload forecasting, addressing issues such as duplicated work, inconsistent handovers, and inaccurate time/budget tracking. To support this, the team has implemented ClickUp and needs to assess whether it genuinely saves time, reduces duplication, and enables clearer planning.

Duties
  • Design a survey that tests Mediorite’s core assumptions:
    • Time spent on pre-production tasks (currently tracked in Clockify) can be reduced by streamlining workflows through ClickUp.
    • Multiple team members working on the same documents leads to delays, incorrect handovers, and inaccurate time/budget tracking.
    • Editor workload forecasting is inconsistent, resulting in periods of overload and downtime.
  • Analyse the survey results alongside data from ClickUp and Clockify to:
    • Identify workflow issues, handover errors, time-tracking inconsistencies, and planning challenges. Rank these issues by urgency and impact.
    • Assess whether ClickUp is improving efficiency, reducing duplicated work, and supporting more accurate workload forecasting.
  • Produce a final report that provides:
    • A clear evaluation of whether ClickUp is solving the identified problems and where it is delivering measurable improvements.
    • Recommendations for how each department should use ClickUp to support smoother workflows and better planning.
    • Practical guidance for training, adoption, and long-term use of ClickUp across the organisation.
1-2 months to finish the project. The organisation would like the researchers to come to the office (if research requires) once or twice per week but will be flexible around these requirements.
