About us The SmartMove2UK is a UK immigration consultancy with offices in Mumbai, Delhi, and Bengaluru. We help individuals, families, students, and professionals move to the UK on work, family, study, and settlement routes.

Conroy Baker Ltd is a London-based UK immigration and business advisory firm, IAA-regulated (formerly OISC). Conroy Baker helps employers with Sponsor Licences, Skilled Worker visas, Global Business Mobility and UK expansion.

The role

We are launching interview-style video series for both brands, in the format of news-explainer and expert-conversation channels. Our founder answers the questions that clients mostly ask. You set up the camera, ask the questions, and turn each recording into a complete YouTube episode plus a set of Reels and Shorts, packaged to each brand's guidelines.

This is a behind-the-camera role. You own the full process: shoot, edit, cut down, package, and publish. Questions, talking points, and video content will be provided; you are responsible for execution - shoot, interview, deliver, edit, package, and publish.

What work you will do (Responsibilities)

1. Shoot

● Set up and conduct batch recording sessions at our Mumbai office: two-camera setup (camera and/or smartphone), wireless lapel mics, lighting, and framing.

● Keep a consistent studio look for each brand so episodes are recognisable.

2. Interview

● Ask the questions and talking points provided by the marketing lead on or off camera and keep the conversation natural and on topic.

● Capture strong opening lines and pick-ups that can be used as hooks for Reels and Shorts.

3.



Edit long-form YouTube episodes (8-15 minutes)

● Multi-camera editing with a hook-first structure and tight pacing for audience retention.

● Audio clean-up, leveling, and background music; colour correction using each brand's colour preset.

● Captions, lower thirds, on-screen text, B-roll, and simple motion graphics using brand templates.

4. Create Reels and Shorts

● Cut 4-6 vertical (9:16) Reels and YouTube Shorts from each episode, with simple and catchy captions and a strong first 3 seconds.

● Adapt cut-downs for LinkedIn (1:1 or 16:9) where needed.

5. Package and publish

● Design thumbnails and draft titles, descriptions, chapters, and end screens.

● Upload and schedule on YouTube Studio; hand Reels to the social media specialist for the posting calendar.

6. Brand templates

● Build and maintain a separate template kit for each brand: intro, lower thirds, caption style, thumbnail layout, and colour preset.

7. Accuracy and approvals

● Follow our review process: every video is checked for accuracy before it is published.

● Use the approved brand names and terminology in captions, titles, and thumbnails, and spell visa route names correctly.

8. Files and performance

● Organise raw footage, project files, and exports on the shared drive with clear naming and backups.

● Review YouTube Studio and Instagram insights monthly (retention, click-through rate, views) and apply what you learn to the next edits.

We are looking for (Qualification and skills)

Must have

● 2-4 years editing YouTube long-form videos and Reels/Shorts (media house, agency, creator team, or in-house brand).





● A portfolio with at least one talking-head, interview, or podcast video of 8 minutes and at least three Reels or Shorts.

● Strong skills in Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, including multi-camera editing, audio clean-up, and colour correction.

● Working knowledge of After Effects to edit motion templates (titles, lower thirds).

● Photoshop or Canva for thumbnails.

● Hands-on shooting experience: DSLR/mirrorless or smartphone, lapel mics, and basic lighting.

● Understanding of what works on YouTube and Instagram: hooks, retention, thumbnails, aspect ratios, and caption safe zones.

● Confident spoken English and comfortable asking questions to senior leadership on camera.

● Strong written English and close attention to spelling and detail.

● Based in Mumbai and able to work from the office.

Good to have

● Experience creating content for UK or international audiences, including British English spelling (e.g. "licence", "organise").

● AI video tools (Descript, OpusClip, Adobe Podcast, HeyGen, or Runway).

● Experience with explainer, news, education, finance, or professional services content.

● Basic motion design: animated text, easy infographics, and step-by-step process visuals.

What we offer

● Ownership of the video output for two established brands serving India, the UK and international markets.

● Direct collaboration with the founder and the digital marketing leadership team.

● Creative input into new formats, series, and channel growth.

● A clear path to Video Lead as the channels and team grow.

● Competitive salary based on experience and portfolio.
