• Knowledge of how to use video equipment safely and responsibly

• A strong understanding of video editing software is essential. We currently use Capcut, but we are happy to use whichever software the successful candidate is most experienced with.
• Excellent eye for detail
• Ability to work on different projects, work to deadlines and manage your time well
• Excellent communication skills
• Strong organisation skills and an ability to hit the ground running – this is a hands-on role from the get-go. You’ll be producing video content from day one.
• A highly creative and innovative mindset to create compelling, engaging video content of the highest standard that is reflective of The Evergreen Agency’s core mission, vision and values.
• A qualification within the following subjects is preferable however not compulsory: Videography, Video Production, Photography, Film, Television, Communications and Media Studies

Important things to note:

• A candidate with their own starting equipment is preferable, (e.g. camera, tripod, lighting,) but not compulsory. We currently have some equipment available, including a Lumix G7, tripods and a green screen. The company will be happy to invest in the right individual and the equipment they need. We will not discount applicants that do not have their own equipment.
• Your creative portfolio is the most important element of your application – we’re looking for someone to really impress us with a portfolio that demonstrates originality, creativity, passion and flair.
• This is primarily an in-house videographer role.
• You’ll be creating content to promote The Evergreen Agency, which means a genuine passion and interest in ecommerce digital marketing is vital. (You will be marketing to marketers, after all)
• You’ll also regularly work alongside (and film) team members, so you’ll need to be a team player who can make people feel at ease behind the camera.

Years of experience:

You may be a recent University graduate or apprenticeship graduate, or you may have several years commercial experience, we’re much more interested in the person rather than the experience.
