ABOUT THE ROLE

This role is still, though, highly independent. You'll be expected to manage your own timetable and shoots, think creatively on your feet, and deliver polished social content ready for publication on the brand's social channels.
It’s a fantastic opportunity for someone who’s hungry to develop their craft, loves storytelling through video, and thrives in a fast-paced creative environment.
