Job description

Are you someone who feels most at home behind the camera?

Whitewater Brewing Co. is looking for a Content Creator to help bring our brands to life through high-quality photography and video. This role is all about creating: capturing moments, telling visual stories, and producing content that fuels our marketing across multiple platforms.

You’ll play a key role in how our brands show up every day, from social feeds and websites to campaigns and print. If you’re someone who loves the process of shooting, editing, and building a consistent stream of content, this role is for you.

A day in the life:

As our Content Creator, your focus will be creating content that keeps our marketing engine running.

You’ll plan and execute product and lifestyle shoots, capture photo and video content, and edit assets for use across social, web, email, and print. You’ll work closely with the Director of Marketing & Brand and our Brand Identity Designer to bring campaigns and brand direction to life.

You’ll partner with our Marketing & Social Media Coordinator, who supports scheduling/publishing, community management, and engagement. This allows you to stay focused on what you do best: creating strong, on‑brand content consistently.

What You’ll Own

• Plan and execute product, lifestyle, and campaign photo/video shoots
• Capture and edit content for social media, websites, email, and print
• Build and maintain a consistent pipeline of high‑quality visual content
• Bring each brand direction to life through strong composition, lighting, and storytelling
• Collaborate on shot lists, concepts, and creative direction
• Maintain and evolve the visual identity across multiple brands
• Stay current with content trends, formats, and platform best practices

About this team:

Our marketing team is a lean, mean (just kidding, we're really kind) marketing machine. We’re a collaborative group that moves quickly and cares deeply about the work. We support multiple brands, which means variety, creativity, and a steady flow of projects.

We value:

• Clear thinking over chaos
• Strong execution over overcomplication
• Teamwork, trust, and open communication

We do our best work when we’re focused, aligned, and having a bit of fun along the way.

Must Haves:

• 2–4 years experience in a content creation role (photo/video focused)
• A strong portfolio showcasing product and/or lifestyle photography and videography (required)
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Lightroom, Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Illustrator)
• Strong understanding of lighting, composition, and visual storytelling
• Experience creating content for Instagram, Reels, TikTok, Pinterest, and web platforms
• Ability to shoot and edit independently
• Strong organization and time management skills in a fast‑paced environment
• A collaborative mindset and attention to detail

Nice to Haves:

• Experience working with consumer brands (beverage, hospitality, lifestyle, or retail)
• Familiarity with motion graphics or After Effects
• Experience shooting in both studio and outdoor environments
• Passion for craft beverages, food, or outdoor lifestyle brands
• Competitive salary ($55,000 – $70,000 based on experience & portfolio strength)
• Flexible hybrid work environment
• Employee discounts on food and merchandise
• Opportunities to attend festivals, events, and brand experiences
• A couple times each year, we close the business to spend time together as a team (think beach days, ski hills, and off‑site resets)
• A supportive, flexible approach to personal and sick time - we trust our team and encourage people to take care of themselves and their families when needed

How to Apply

Please apply on LinkedIn or send your resume and a link to your portfolio to [e-mail].

We’d also love to see:

• A piece of content you’re proud of
• A quick note on how you approach shooting and creating content

Applications without a portfolio will not be considered.
