Job description

About Lawhive:

We’re on a mission to make sure everyone has access to the law.
Lawhive is an online platform for consumers and small businesses to get legal help for a fraction of the cost of a law firm. Our platform combines regulated human lawyers collaborating alongside the world’s first AI lawyer, specifically built for consumer legal work.
Equal access to the law is one of the biggest and most pressing unsolved problems in society today. We’re passionate about leveling the playing field and believe access to the law should be a basic utility in society.
Our AI lawyer Lawrence is built on top of our own fine tuned LLM and recently passed the UK’s bar exam equivalent.
We’re backed by some of the top US and UK VC funds including Google Ventures, Balderton Capital and TQ Ventures. We recently secured a $40M Series A funding round to facilitate international expansion and to grow our team, representing one of the five largest Series A rounds in Europe for 2024.

About the Role:

As a core part of our newly established Growth squad, our Creative Lead will be responsible for bringing our mission, technology and business to life through the creation of captivating digital content, with a focus on short-form video production and design. You’ll own the entire content creation process end-to-end, from ideation and scripting, to production and delivery. Your work will span product walk-throughs, customer success stories, user testimonials, and social content that drives engagement with our B2B and B2C audiences across channels, particularly LinkedIn.

If you're energised by the 0-1 building, love experimenting with new formats and motion design techniques, and take pride in your craft, this role will give you the ownership and creative freedom to make a meaningful impact.

What You’ll Do:

• Own and oversee the entire content lifecycle, from ideation to script writing to production and delivery
• Create short-form video content, including interviews and customer success stories, highlighting features and the real-world impact of our platform
• Design and produce engaging visual content for use across socials, notably LinkedIn
• Collaborate with Product to storyboard and deliver video walkthroughs, demos, and customer journeys
• Work alongside Marketing and Product teams to refine visual content strategy and adapt to audience trends
• Ensure consistency in tone, style, and brand guidelines across all visual assets
• Use performance data to iterate on design, optimising for audience engagement
• Stay ahead of visual design trends, integrating innovative motion and graphic design techniques

Requirements:

• 3-5+ years’ experience in video production, content creation, and graphic design
• Strong portfolio showcasing social content, short video projects and motion graphics
• Proficiency in industry standard design tools (e.g., Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, Final Cut, Canva)
• Passion for distilling complex concepts (like AI legal tools) into simple, compelling visual stories
• Knowledge of social media content design best practices
• Experience collaborating with Product/Tech teams to create digital experiences is highly desirable
• Excellent attention to detail and a drive to innovate
• Self-starter with strong communication and time management skills

✈️ 33 days’ annual leave (25 + bank holidays) plus your birthday off

💰 Pension contribution via Nest
