Job description

Social network you want to login/join with:

We’re a creative and advertising agency for hungry food & drink brands. Established in 2015, we're now the creative and media lead on category-leading UK brands. We create Ideas That Stick.

We’re a growing team with diverse skill sets that come together to make something a little special. Our major focus is helping brands make the most of themselves, and we do this by coming up with the big ideas and delivering them too. Simply put, we plan, produce, and run creative campaigns worth talking about. We’ve found that delivering creative and media under one roof makes things easier and more effective for everybody involved!

Current Clients Include:

• TREK Bars

ABOUT THE ROLE

As Junior Content Creator, you’ll be hands-on from day one — planning, shooting, and editing your own content for a range of food brands and campaigns.

You’ll be supported by the Head of Creative and our Midweight Content Creator, and provided continued training on how to improve your creative output across lighting and camera work. This role is still, though, highly independent. You'll be expected to manage your own timetable and shoots, think creatively on your feet, and deliver polished social content ready for publication on the brand's social channels.

It’s a fantastic opportunity for someone who’s hungry to develop their craft, loves storytelling through video, and thrives in a fast-paced creative environment.
