About the role

We’re looking for a creative and confident Video Content Creator & Presenter to join our team in Billericay and help develop Darwin Recruitment’s video content and online presence.

We want to do more with video, particularly interview and podcast-style content that gives people a better insight into our business, the people who work here and the clients we work with.

You’ll take the lead in hosting and presenting interviews with our recruitment consultants, clients and industry contacts, finding out more about their experiences, how Darwin helped solve thier problems, the work they do and the stories behind their success.

Alongside this, you’ll be responsible for filming, editing and producing content for our social media channels and website. You’ll have plenty of scope to bring your own ideas to the table and help decide what our content looks like.

It’s a varied role where you’ll be involved in everything from coming up with ideas and arranging interviews to getting behind the camera, presenting and editing the finished videos.

What you’ll be doing

• Hosting and presenting interviews with our consultants, clients and industry contacts.

• Coming up with ideas for new video content, including interviews, podcasts and social media features.

• Filming and producing video content, taking projects from the initial idea through to the finished product.

• Editing videos for LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube and our website.

• Creating shorter clips and reels from longer interviews to share across social media.

• Helping plan our content calendar and develop a consistent approach to video and social media.

What we’re looking for

Ideally, you’ll have experience creating video content, from filming and editing through to producing content for social media.

We’re also looking for someone who:

• Is confident and comfortable presenting in front of a camera.

• Has a natural ability to talk to people and get the best out of an interview.

• Has experience using video editing software and filming equipment.

• Understands what works across platforms such as LinkedIn, Instagram and YouTube.

• Enjoys coming up with ideas and isn’t afraid to try something different.

• Can work independently, manage their time and take responsibility for their own projects.

• Has a good eye for detail and takes pride in the content they produce.

You don’t necessarily need to have worked in recruitment before. We’re more interested in your creativity, experience and ability to produce good content.
