Job description

As our Senior Social Media Content Creator, you'll lead the creation of mobile-first video content that brings the British Heart Foundation's (BHF) mission to life across our social platforms.

In this hands-on, production-focused role, you'll ideate, film, and edit social-first videos and Reels using mobile devices, crafting content that resonates with our audiences on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, and Facebook. You'll also design engaging visual assets, carousels, and graphics to support a wide range of campaigns.

You’ll spend a lot of time out in the field, capturing real moments and authentic voices. Whether it’s a patient sharing their story, a nurse on the front line, or a researcher making breakthroughs, you'll turn these moments into compelling digital content that connects with people and builds community.

You’ll be at the heart of the action, working closely with teams across the BHF and the wider community to spotlight our work and mission. Your content will stop the scroll, start conversations, and inspire people to get involved.

What You'll Do

1. Produce standout video content for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, and Facebook
2. Film, edit, and deliver high-quality mobile-first videos with quick turnarounds
3. Design visual assets using Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator)
4. Curate and repurpose content to tell fresh, engaging stories
5. Ensure all content meets brand, tone, and inclusivity standards
6. Travel across the UK for live events, conferences, and on-location shoots

About You

You're an experienced social media videographer with a strong portfolio of impactful, end-to-end content. You're confident managing the full production process, from planning and storyboarding to filming, editing, and publishing. You know how to create content that cuts through the noise and connects with audiences.

You're flexible, hands-on, and comfortable working independently in the field. Whether interviewing patients and professionals on camera or editing footage into a polished final product, you bring creativity, empathy, and precision to every stage of production. You also thrive in a collaborative environment, working closely with colleagues to ensure content meets the needs of our audiences.

What You'll Bring

• Proven experience creating social-first video content for a major brand or organization
• Strong mobile videography, editing, and storytelling skills
• Advanced Adobe Creative Suite skills (InDesign, Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator)
• A confident, engaging presence and excellent interview skills
• Deep knowledge of social trends, inclusive content, and platform best practices
• Excellent organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and priorities
