You'll be confident taking projects from initial ideation through to shooting and editing, with a strong understanding of how to create content that feels native to social while still delivering against a brand's creative vision.

• Develop original creative concepts and ideas in response to client briefs.
• Shoot, film and edit engaging video and photo content.

• Work across established brands, adapting creative to different audiences, tones of voice and brand guidelines.
• Identify cultural moments and emerging trends, translating them into relevant brand opportunities.
• Collaborate with creative, strategy, social and account teams.
• Take projects from initial concept through to final delivery.
• Confidently contribute to brainstorms and present creative ideas.

Skills & Tools

• Strong experience creating content for recognised brands, ideally within an agency or production environment.
• Experience working with big-name brands and/or FMCG clients would be highly desirable.
• A strong portfolio showcasing polished, high-quality branded content.
• Confident shooting and editing video independently.
• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Final Cut Pro and/or CapCut.
• Working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator.
• Comfortable using cameras, lighting and audio equipment.
• Strong understanding of TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and wider social trends.

What We're Looking For

• Proven experience as a Content Creator within a creative agency, production studio or established brand.
• Someone whose work goes beyond basic UGC, with a strong creative eye and understanding of brand storytelling.
• Experience working with recognisable brands, ideally across FMCG, lifestyle, beauty, food and drink or consumer brands.
• A strong understanding of social-first creative and what makes content resonate with audiences.
• Someone who can independently ideate, shoot and edit to a high standard.
• Culturally switched on, proactive and confident bringing fresh ideas to the table.
• Comfortable working across multiple clients and managing deadlines in a busy agency environment.
