Detailed Description From Employer:

We’re looking for a seasoned and imaginative London-based Creative Video Producer who thrives in a fast-paced, digital-first environment.

You’ll be working alongside design creatives, story editors, and producers to concept, plan, and execute high-quality live action content that resonates with digital audiences. Our deliverables range from short-form live-action work, social-style videos, and interviews to original conceptual features, AR captures, and VFX projects — from initial concept through delivery. The ideal candidate will have a robust background in all methods of production and post and is accustomed to delivering at a very high level of quality. They will be both a creative storyteller and a strategic executor with a vast portfolio of vendor and director partners, comfortable collaborating with designers, writers, and video editors, as well as managing budgets and timelines. They’ll work cross-functionally with creative, editorial, and post / VFX teams to bring bold ideas to life. This role requires a flexibility to provide a level of participation outside of regular office hours to accommodate frequent collaboration with the wider team in APAC and the US.
