Description
About The Role
We're looking for a Senior Videographer & Editor to lead the creation of video content for Butlin’s across owned, earned and paid channels, including social media, our website, digital advertising and video-on-demand advertising.
You’ll proactively spot content opportunities, originate ideas and turn them into clear creative treatments and storyboards. You’ll also develop briefs from the wider team, planning and directing shoots with our team, guests and talent, and taking projects through editing, feedback and final delivery.
This is a senior, hands-on role requiring strong filming and editing skills. You’ll also create motion graphics and animation that bring our content to life, from animated typography and branded graphics to more developed sequences where the brief requires them.
Working closely with Social, Creative, PR, Brand, Media, Entertainment and Resort teams, you’ll proactively identify opportunities, originate ideas and turn business and audience needs into distinctive video concepts. Though this role predominantly works on the family brand, you'll also work closely with the Videographer for Butlin's Big Weekenders.
