Working closely with the Head of Creative, Art Director and Creative Content Producer, you will translate approved creative direction and shot lists into elevated footage with a refined luxury sensibility.

You will need to operate confidently as a solo shooter or as part of a small crew, adapt quickly to live restaurant environments and understand how to capture for vertical-first social formats without compromising production quality.

• Work efficiently within restricted pre-service access windows.

• Direct contributors and light-touch talent where required.
• Respond confidently to changing conditions without losing the priority shots.

Brand and Creative Delivery

• Adapt the shooting approach to each brand's visual language.
• Balance bold, expressive and energetic capture with more refined, cinematic styles.
• Work closely with the Head of Creative and Art Director to maintain visual consistency.
• Capture sufficient coverage and variation for different platforms and campaign formats.
• Support the development of repeatable brand-specific lighting and camera approaches.

Footage Management and Handover

• Back up and organise footage securely after each shoot.
• Maintain clear folder structures, file naming and camera-card records.
• Supply complete, technically consistent rushes to the assigned editor.
• Provide shot notes, technical information and priority-take guidance where helpful.
• Flag missing coverage or technical issues promptly.

What You'll Bring

• Four or more years' experience in a hands-on videography or cinematography role.
• Expert knowledge of professional camera systems and lighting.
• Strong experience filming food, drinks, interiors, lifestyle and people.
• Confidence working independently or with a minimal crew.
• Strong handheld and gimbal-operating skills.
• An excellent understanding of composition, movement, exposure and colour.
• Experience directing contributors naturally and efficiently.
• The ability to work quickly in busy, operational environments.
• Strong organisational standards for footage management and handover.

Nice to Have

• Experience filming luxury hospitality, food, fashion or lifestyle brands.
• Photography skills and the ability to capture supporting stills when briefed.
• Experience with basic location-sound recording.
• Experience working with food stylists and specialist lighting setups.
• Drone experience or an appropriate licence.
