Job description

Real customers. Real results. Your job is to capture the story.

We're building a proof machine.

Every week, Australians are switching to Smart Energy, installing smarter energy solutions and changing how they power their homes.

Those stories are happening all over the country. Your job is to go and get them.

You'll travel interstate, visiting customer homes, filming installations, interviewing homeowners and capturing the real-world impact of our solar, battery and home electrification solutions.

We're looking for a skilled Videographer & Photographer who can independently shoot, light, record, photograph and edit professional-quality content.

We're after someone who knows their way around professional camera equipment and can turn real customer experiences into compelling brand stories, photography and advertising.

It's a brand-new role with creative ownership, interstate travel and the opportunity to build our in-house production capability.

What You’ll Actually Do

Customer Stories & Production

• Local and interstate travel to customer homes and installation sites to capture professional video and photography.
• Film installations, completed systems, customer testimonials and before-and-after transformations.
• Interview homeowners and turn their experiences into authentic, compelling stories.
• Independently manage shoots using professional cameras, lighting and audio equipment.

Brand & Marketing Content

• Produce high-quality photography, brand films, case studies, advertisements and short-form videos.
• Shoot and edit content for our website, Meta, YouTube, and other marketing channels.
• Work with our marketing team to create visual content that builds trust, generates leads and drives results.
• Capture our people, offices, events and culture for recruitment and brand storytelling.

Production Management

• Own shoots from planning and travel coordination through to filming, editing and delivery.
• Manage equipment, locations, customer interviews and production schedules.
• Maintain an organised library of footage, photography and creative assets.

Who This Role Suits

• You're a shooter first. You understand professional cameras, lenses, lighting, composition and audio, and can deliver polished video and photography.
• You're a natural storyteller. You can make everyday customers comfortable on camera and capture genuine, engaging stories.
• You're independent. You can plan and execute a professional shoot from start to finish without a production crew.
• You love being on the road. You're excited to travel, visit customers and capture content on location.
• You're commercially minded. You understand how great creative builds brands and drives results.

What We’re Looking For

• 2+ years' professional experience in videography, photography or commercial video production.
• Strong technical skills operating professional cameras, lenses, lighting and audio equipment.
• Proven ability to shoot both professional video and high-quality still photography.
• Advanced editing skills in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro, plus Lightroom or Photoshop.
• Experience producing interviews, testimonials, brand videos or commercial content.
• Confidence independently planning, filming, editing and delivering complete productions.
• Strong creative instincts, attention to detail and organisational skills.
• A current Australian driver's licence and willingness to travel interstate, including overnight stays

A professional video showreel and photography portfolio are essential. Personal social media accounts alone are not sufficient.

Why Smart Energy?

• Join a growing Australian home electrification business with real customer stories worth telling.
• Interstate travel capturing customers, projects and installations.
• Take creative ownership of a brand-new in-house production role.
• Work across brand films, customer stories, photography and performance advertising.
• See the direct impact your work has on our brand and business growth.
• Hybrid working arrangement, based in Sydney or Byron Bay.
• Be part of an ambitious marketing team with plenty of room to grow.

Plus the perks

• Annual Bali incentive trips for high performers, huge Christmas parties in Sydney or Byron Bay, Friday drinks, pub lunches, regular sweepstakes and a strong team culture.
