Content Creator

Role Overview

We’re looking for a creative, resourceful and endlessly curious Content Creator to join Jungle.
This is a hands-on role for a true self-contained unit. You’ll take ideas from first spark to final edit: ideating, concepting, shooting, producing and editing social-first content that’s built for the feed and made to perform.

You’ll be the person we send to the moment. Whether that’s trackside and behind the scenes at a major sporting event or capturing events at major destinations you’ll know how to shoot it fast, tell the story well and turn it around at speed.

This role is for someone who thinks in hooks, formats and trends, and has the craft to back it up behind the camera and in the edit. You’ll bring a strong creative eye, a producer’s instinct for getting things done, and the confidence to work independently on the ground.

This is an opportunity to make work for some of the biggest brands and moments in culture, and to help shape how Jungle shows up wherever the action is.

• Contribute creative thinking and content examples to pitches and new business

• Advanced editing skills in Premiere Pro, CapCut or DaVinci Resolve, with motion graphics (After Effects) a bonus
• Deep understanding of TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts and emerging platforms, including formats, trends and what drives performance
• Experience producing shoots end to end: planning, shot lists, call sheets, logistics, permissions and talent
• Comfortable shooting at major live events and destinations, often in fast-moving, crowded or access-restricted environments
• Able to turn content around at speed, including same-day and real-time edits from location
• Confident directing talent, creators and contributors, and comfortable stepping in front of camera when needed
• Highly organised and self-sufficient, able to manage multiple projects and deadlines independently
• A showreel or portfolio of social-first content you’ve ideated, shot and edited yourself
• Flexible to travel in the UK and internationally, and to work around event schedules

What Success Looks Like

• Content you create consistently performs, driving strong reach, engagement and watch time
• Jungle can send you to any event or destination and trust you to come back with brilliant content
• Ideas feel fresh, platform-native and culturally relevant, never templated
• Turnaround from capture to publish gets faster without any drop in quality
