About Shaka Social
Shaka Social is where creativity meets performance. We’re a results-obsessed social media agency that blends big ideas with data-driven results. Based in Glasgow, we partner with leading brands to create social content that doesn’t just look good, it performs.
We’re a team of ambitious creatives, strategists, and performance specialists who genuinely love what we do. From storytelling to paid media, everything we make is designed to move the needles that matter for our clients.
Role Overview
We’re looking for a Videographer & Editor to join our growing creative team.
You’ll be responsible for both filming and editing video content that spans high-end brand shoots and fast-turnaround social content.
Your work will range from producing premium storytelling videos for clients like Whyte & Mackay to creating engaging short-form edits for campaigns across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube for clients, such as Skyscanner.
You’ll collaborate closely with our content, paid, and strategy teams to bring bold, social-first ideas to life.
Key Responsibilities
Filming & Production
- Plan, film, and produce short-form and longer-form content using professional camera, lighting, and audio equipment.
- Confidently direct and capture a variety of content styles; from polished commercial shoots to fast-paced, reactive social clips.
- Take ownership of your shoots, managing on-set logistics and maintaining high creative standards.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.

Collaboration
- Work closely with both the paid advertising and organic content teams to ensure that video content aligns with campaign goals.
- Bring creative input to ideation sessions and contribute fresh ideas to briefs.
- Understand the nuances of social-first storytelling and how to make content stand out in fast-scrolling feeds.
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience filming and editing professional-grade video content.
- Strong proficiency with professional grade cameras.
- Strong proficiency in DaVinci Resolve (bonus points for knowledge of other software).
- A creative eye for framing, lighting, and storytelling.
