Job description

2 days per week | London (On-site)

We are looking for a creative, social-first videographer to join our team on a part-time or freelance basis. This role is ideal for someone who lives and breathes short-form content, understands current social trends, and can bring a founder’s personality and story to life through engaging video.

You will work 2 days per week on-site, following our founder to capture behind-the-scenes moments, product insights, team culture, and day-in-the-life content. If you’re comfortable shooting, directing lightly, and editing high-performing videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts — we’d love to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

• Film founder-led, on-the-go content in our office and at external locations (2 days per week).
• Capture a variety of formats: talking-heads, behind-the-scenes, product demos, lifestyle content, vlogs, and spontaneous social moments.
• Edit fast, polished, high-retention videos optimised for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts.
• Develop content outlines and creative concepts with our marketing team.
• Maintain a consistent brand voice, visual style, and pace across all videos.
• Advise on what is “trending” and help shape our social-first video strategy.
• Organise footage, manage simple lighting/audio setups, and ensure smooth workflows.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience creating short-form video for TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts.
• A strong understanding of social trends, pacing, hooks, storytelling, and retention techniques.
• Skilled in both videography and editing (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or CapCut).
• Comfortable filming content in dynamic settings and capturing natural, in-the-moment footage.
• Ability to direct lightly and make the founder feel natural on camera.
• Portfolio of social-first video work (this is a must).

Nice to Have

• Experience filming fitness, wellness, lifestyle, or tech content.
• Experience working with founders, creators, or influencers.
• Ability to propose fresh, creative concepts that feel native to social platforms.

Benefits

• Weekly Thursday lunch club and daily free barista coffees (in office)
• All. The. Fun. Regular awesome socials.
