Duties
- Come up with fresh and interesting social-first video ideas that keep our audience engaged, informed and passionate about our brands
- Film multi-camera shoots in our purpose-built studios, across the business and occasionally on location
- Shoot on-the-fly, with a range of cameras (everything from Lumix S5 IIs to drones and iPhones), in a mix of formats
- Edit social and long-form video content in multiple formats for multiple social channels including TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook
- Encourage participation from people across the whole business, creating content that shows who we are as a company and what makes us different
- Deliver precise, elegant product photography for our print materials, online ad campaigns and websites
- Create compelling YouTube thumbnails, promotional graphics and other digital assets to boost engagement and conversions across our social channels
- Manage our YouTube Channels and social media platforms in collaboration as part of a friendly, ambitious team of videographers and social specialists
- Work to brand guidelines, reviewing and adjusting these guidelines as the business evolves
- Produce motion graphics and illustrations to a high standard
- Troubleshoot technical problems quickly and efficiently
- Helping out elsewhere in the business as required (for instance, when we have a sudden surge in sales, everyone in the business helps out in the warehouse).
Requirements

- High-level knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator and Audition)

- A confident communicator who can reassure, support and encourage on-screen talent at all levels of experience
- True understanding and experience of how video works on social platforms and how to leverage that knowledge. This is not a role for a 'traditional' stand-alone Editor. You will be working closely with creators.
