Technical ability is important, but we're equally interested in your creative instincts and attitude. You'll need to be someone who can work autonomously. You won't have another videographer sitting alongside you telling you which lens to use, how to light an interview or how to structure an edit. We therefore want someone who is comfortable making those decisions and taking responsibility for the finished product. At the same time, you'll be part of a collaborative marketing team, working with colleagues across content, campaigns, digital and events. You'll ideally be:

• Creative and full of ideas.
• Technically confident behind a camera.
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership of projects.
• Organised enough to manage several productions simultaneously.
• Confident working with people who aren't accustomed to being on camera.
• Able to turn relatively loose briefs into strong creative concepts.
• Interested in storytelling rather than simply capturing footage.
• Comfortable switching between highly polished productions and quick, authentic social content.
• Curious about new techniques, technology and video formats.

Technical Skills

Essential

We're looking for good practical experience in:

• DSLR/mirrorless or professional video camera operation.
• Lenses, exposure, frame rates and camera settings.
• Composition and visual storytelling.
• Lighting for interviews and other productions.
• Professional audio recording.
• Video editing and post-production.
• Preparing and exporting content for different platforms and formats.
• Smartphone videography using iPhone and/or Android devices.

Experience with DaVinci Resolve and/or Avid Media Composer would be particularly valuable, as these are systems we currently use. You don't necessarily need to have worked with every piece of equipment we own – we're more interested in someone who understands the principles and is enthusiastic about learning.

Desirable

Experience in any of the following would be a bonus:

• Adobe After Effects.
• Colour correction and basic colour grading.
• Drone filming.
• Live events and webinars.
• Motion graphics and animation.
• Blackmagic camera systems.
• ARRI camera systems.
• Multi-camera productions.
• Photography.
• Podcast/video podcast production.
• Social-first vertical video production.
• Sound design and audio post-production.

Professional Equipment – and the Freedom to Use It

This isn't a role where you'll be expected to produce everything using a basic corporate camera kit. You'll have access to a professional production environment including:

• Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6K systems
• ARRI cameras for selected projects
• Professional lenses, lighting and audio equipment
• Mac Studio editing workstations
• Professional editing and post-production software

We want someone who is excited by the opportunity to use high-quality equipment – but who also understands that sometimes the best tool for the job is the smartphone in their pocket. The ability to recognise the difference is important to us.

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role isn't simply measured by how technically perfect a piece of footage is. We want video that gets watched, communicates an idea and makes people feel something or take action. Over time, we'd expect you to become the person within the business who drives our thinking around video – bringing ideas to the marketing team, spotting opportunities and continually improving the quality and effectiveness of the content we produce.

Experience

We're open-minded about exactly where you've gained your experience. You may have worked:

• In-house within a marketing or creative team.
• For a video production company.
• Within a creative or marketing agency.
• As a freelance videographer or filmmaker.
• In television, film or digital content production.

A strong showreel or portfolio demonstrating what you can actually create will be more important to us than a particular qualification or number of years in the industry.

Why This Role Is Different

This is an opportunity to become the go-to video specialist within an ambitious marketing team. You'll have the equipment and technology to create genuinely high-quality work, while having the freedom to experiment with faster and more contemporary approaches to content creation. One day that might mean lighting and shooting a carefully planned production using a cinema camera. The next might mean spotting an opportunity, pulling out an iPhone and creating something that's online that afternoon. We're looking for someone who enjoys both.

Schedule and Salary

• Full-time Role – Monday to Friday
• Salary £30,000-37,000 depending on experience
