- Conduct quick interviews, vox pops, testimonials, and on-ground content captures
- Identify interesting real-world moments and transform them into compelling short-form stories
- Adapt relevant social media trends while ensuring content remains authentic and aligned with the brand
- Edit footage into polished, platform-appropriate short-form videos with strong pacing, hooks, transitions, captions, sound, and visual storytelling
- Work collaboratively with the internal brand team on ideation, feedback, approvals, and content refinement
- Manage multiple shoot requirements and production timelines efficiently
- Be available for both planned shoots and occasional short-notice production requirements
- Handle different shoot formats, including full-day testimonial shoots and shorter event or on-ground captures
- Maintain consistent production quality across a high-volume monthly content pipeline

- Ensure final videos are optimised for the required platforms, aspect ratios, durations, and specifications

content creation, filmmaking, social media content, or a related field
- Strong portfolio or showreel demonstrating short-form video and social-first content
- Proven ability to independently take a video project from ideation to shooting, editing, and final delivery
- Solid understanding of Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and current short-form content formats
- Excellent visual storytelling, editing, pacing, composition, and creative judgement

- Strong ability to work with non-performers, including employees, customers, commuters, and other real people on camera
- Own professional camera, audio, lighting, and production equipment suitable for lightweight and fast-moving shoots
- Ability to work efficiently during both full-day productions and short 2-3 hour event or on-ground shoots
- Strong editing skills using professional video-editing tools such as Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or equivalent
- Social-media-native mindset with an understanding of hooks, retention, trends, and audience engagement
