Film, edit and post hyperlocal video content for your town (TikTok, Instagram)
Beacon (from Brickworks Media Lab) is a new creator-led media brand with video and newsletter channels. We focus on positive, lifestyle content that builds pride in place and brings people together.
We're authentically local. Our editors are rooted in the places we're based, with content that connects directly with the audiences around them, in the formats they love, on the platforms they're already on.
You'll be the video eyes and ears of Wolverhampton, pitching, filming, editing and posting content that's genuinely of the place, on the platforms your audience already uses: TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.
You'll work alongside your local Newsletter Editor and the central team so video and newsletter tell the same story of the town, just in different formats.
We are looking for part time video editors in Wolverhampton, Caerphilly and Merthyr Tydfil.
Pitch and create content for your local town. Come up with ideas, script them, film them, edit them and post.
You'll see the whole process through across Instagram and TikTok for now optimising content for each platform as you go.
You'll be responsible for content scheduling and optimising, helping us grow our channels to be the most trusted and used in town.
Work with us on paid content across our channels and your own.
Support our wider creator network as directed by the Creators Lead, for example on shoots or with content ideas.
Build relationships with local businesses to find great video stories, and spot partnership opportunities our commercial team can turn into paid video collaborations.
Respond to comments and act as the face and voice of our brand for your town on social platforms.
We're looking for people who are incredibly online with a real feel for what works on video, whether that's from a student channel, your own content, or years of knowing good TikTok when you see it.
You should have a strong sense of what performs well on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.
Filming and editing experience is essential, but we'll also provide training, and you should have the confidence to talk to camera.
You're a self starter who's always got an idea for the next video and is willing to put in the work to bring it to life.
One day you're filming the best pizza in your place, the next you're interviewing a local legend or helping direct one of your creators.
You're not afraid to get out there and speak to people, immersing yourself in the local community.
You don't have to start with all the knowledge about your place, but you should be willing to become an expert in it: the local legends, the sports teams, the businesses, even the dialect.
