Job description

We’re looking for a talented and creatively driven in-house Videographer & Editor to join The Podcast Guys®. This is a hands-on role at the heart of a fast-evolving industry, where podcasts and video podcasts are continuously redefining how stories are told and experienced. You’ll play a key part in shaping that evolution-crafting compelling visual content that brings branded podcasts to life across YouTube, social platforms, live events, and beyond.

With a current 40/60 split between shooting and post-production, this role offers a strong focus on editing while still giving you the opportunity to influence how content is captured.

From polished video podcasts and audio-first podcasts for platforms like Spotify and Apple Podcasts, to fast-turnaround social clips and live event coverage, you’ll be responsible for delivering content that is engaging, agile, and aligned with brand goals.
