Job Description
About Poppins:
Here at Poppins, we create emotive design, brand identities, smart digital products and creative strategy. We’re looking for a hands-on Midweight Social-first Content Creator with strong design skills to join our in-house creative team.
The role:
You’ll create content across a varied mix of clients, from high-end jewellery and automotive to events and beyond, alongside our own agency projects. Your focus will be on filming, editing and bringing social content to life, using your eye for design to incorporate typography, graphics and mixed media.
Working closely with the wider creative team, you’ll contribute ideas and turn briefs into engaging, well-crafted content that feels right for both the brand and the platform.
What you'll do:
- Shoot and edit social-first content, from product films and trend-led videos to event coverage and behind-the-scenes moments.
- Use design, typography, motion and mixed media to elevate content, alongside creating static social assets.
- Contribute ideas, hooks, simple scripts and repeatable formats with support from the creative team.
- Adapt campaign ideas and existing assets into content for Instagram, TikTok and beyond.
- Bring fresh references, relevant trends and new content-making techniques to the team.
- Take content from brief through to delivery, collaborating with creative and account teams, responding to feedback and managing deadlines.
About you:
You love making content and care about the details, from an attention-grabbing opening to a well-timed cut. You’re comfortable moving between polished, premium work and more spontaneous, playful, low-fi social content. Curious, proactive and collaborative, you enjoy developing your craft and taking ownership of your work across varied briefs.
What you'll bring:
- Experience creating social content within an agency, brand or freelance environment.
- A portfolio demonstrating strong self-shot and self-edited video, alongside a good eye for design.
- Confidence filming with mobile devices and camera equipment, with a practical understanding of lighting, framing and sound.
- Strong editing skills using Premiere Pro or equivalent, plus confidence with Photoshop and social tools. After Effects skills are a plus.
- A good grounding in typography, composition and layout, with an interest in mixed media and motion.
- An understanding of social platforms, formats and trends, and how to adapt your approach to different brands.
What we offer:
- Competitive salary
- 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays
- Training support and personal career development
- A flexible working pattern (4 days in our Central London office, 1 from home)
- Monthly wellness allowance
- Company pension scheme
- Community day (annual charity offsite)
- Monday team breakfasts
