The Role You'll work alongside Directors and Producers to capture scroll-stopping content for Meta, TikTok and beyond. From studio to location shoots, you'll bring technical precision and a sharp understanding of what makes social content convert. This isn't a passive camera operation role. The best Videographers at Hambi bring genuine creative & strategic contribution to every set: thoughtful framing, strong composition, lighting that serves the concepts strategy, and an instinct for what makes content stop a scroll. Technical excellence and performance awareness go hand in hand. If you get a genuine buzz from seeing your footage drive real results for real brands, this role is for you. Requirements - 3+ years' experience as a videographer or camera operator, ideally in a commercial or advertising context - Skilled with Sony FX3/FX6 or similar cinema cameras and professional lighting setups - Strong understanding of short-form video formats and what drives conversion on social platforms - Demonstrable familiarity with Meta and TikTok ad styles, hooks and pacing - Experience shooting in both studio and location environments - Strong communication skills and a collaborative, team-first mindset - Calm under pressure and consistently reliable on set - A showreel or portfolio featuring commercial or branded work is required to be considered for this role Preferred but not essential: - Direct experience shooting content for D2C brands or paid social advertising campaigns - Familiarity with tracking creative performance metrics (hook rate, watch time, CTR) Responsibilities - Operate Sony FX3 or equivalent cameras and professional lighting rigs to a consistently high standard across studio and location environments - Manage audio capture with precision: microphone placement, monitoring levels, and flagging any issues to the Director in real time - Shoot confidently across multiple formats: UGC, VSL, podcast, testimonial, branded content, B-roll and product shoots - Execute the Director's creative vision on set with technical precision - and bring your own creative eye to framing, composition and lighting decisions within that direction - Apply a strong understanding of hooks, pacing, scene variety and platform-specific visual trends to every shot - Maintain accurate footage organisation, file naming conventions and metadata throughout and after every shoot — never leave set without a clean, complete handover ready for post-production - Support the Video Director and Producer during pre-production: contributing to discussions on lighting approach, kit requirements and location setup ahead of shoot day - Develop a detailed shot list before every shoot day — arrive on set with your framing, movement and capture priorities fully planned, ready to execute from the first scene - Stay current with Meta and TikTok creative trends and bring relevant visual references to set - Experiment with new techniques to elevate content quality and performance What Success Looks Like In your first 90 days, you'll have shot across a range of formats, built strong working relationships with the Directors and Producers you support, and have footage actively running in client ad accounts. You'll be tracking how your content performs and using that feedback to sharpen your eye and your technical decisions. Attitude You're driven, hands-on and precise in your craft. You care about the frame — but you care just as much about whether the content converts. You thrive on the energy of a busy shoot schedule, stay composed when things don't go to plan, and bring collaborative energy to every set. You're not here to build your reel — you're here to make content that works. Benefits - - 28 days paid holiday including birthday leave, Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. - Long-service holiday scheme: After 2 years’ service, you’ll receive 1 extra day of annual leave for every year of service. - Flexible and hybrid working (2 days in office). - Regular team socials. - Company Private Health and life insurance schemeCompany pension scheme. - Work abroad for 1 month a year. - Full-time Manchester-based role (1 day studio / 3 days on set per week).
