Job Opportunities

Video Lead

Location: London (Hybrid)

Reporting to: Head of Content - JamPot Productions

Role Overview

JamPot is building something distinctive in the podcast and digital content space - and we need someone to lead the visual storytelling behind it. We’re looking for a Video Lead who brings not just deep production expertise, but a genuine creative point of view: someone who can set the visual bar, push it higher, and inspire a team to do the same.

This is a role for a leader who is as comfortable shaping the creative direction of a new show as they are overseeing a complex multi-project production schedule. You will own end-to-end video production across JamPot’s slate – from in-studio shoots to short-form social edits – and be responsible for the creative standards and workflows that underpin everything we make. You will also be a hands-on contributor, delivering long-form and short-form edits yourself as part of the team.

Key Accountabilities

Creative Direction & Visual Identity

  • Define and champion a distinctive visual language across JamPot’s slate of shows, ensuring each production has a coherent, high-quality identity

  • Actively raise the creative bar - proactively bringing ideas, references and creative ambition to new and existing shows

  • Lead creative direction on visual treatment, motion graphics, editing style and on-screen aesthetic across both long-form and short-form content

  • Collaborate with the wider content and marketing teams on campaign assets, launch materials and promotional content

  • Develop and maintain scalable visual systems: templates, graphics packages and show-specific design standards

  • Stay ahead of trends in video, social and podcast content, bringing relevant creative insight into the team

  • Work with brands to deliver creative, premium and effective video campaigns that sit across

    multiple platforms.

Video Production Management

  • Oversee the full video production cycle across the JamPot slate, from inception through to final delivery

  • Manage multiple projects simultaneously, ensuring delivery on time, within scope and to the highest standard

  • Deliver long-form and short-form edits directly, with a strong understanding of the distinct craft requirements of each format

  • Supervise post-production workflows including editing, colour correction, sound, motion graphics and final export

  • Troubleshoot production and post-production challenges, implementing efficient solutions in a fast-paced environment

  • Oversee asset management, file organisation and final delivery processes

  • Build and maintain strong relationships with external freelancers, studios and suppliers

Team Leadership & Development:

  • Lead, manage and grow a team of video editors, videographers and audio engineers

  • Provide clear creative direction and constructive feedback that helps the team develop and elevate their work

  • Assign projects, manage workloads and identify capacity pinch points in collaboration with the production manager

  • Drive team growth through hiring, onboarding, training and ongoing professional development

  • Foster a creative culture that values craft, collaboration and continuous improvement

Production Planning & Shoot Management:

  • Oversee shoot logistics including crew coordination, equipment planning and production timelines

  • Manage productions from pre-production through to wrap, ensuring safe, efficient and premium-quality execution

  • Maintain production equipment inventories and oversee studio workflow standards

  • Anticipate production challenges and put contingencies in place proactively

Skills and Experience

We’re looking for someone with:

  • Proven experience leading video productions from concept to delivery, ideally in a content production, podcast or broadcast environment

  • A portfolio demonstrating strong creative range across both long-form and short-form formats, with evidence of visual identity development

  • Experience managing and developing creative teams in a fast-paced production environment

  • Expert-level proficiency across the Adobe suite (particularly Premiere Pro and After Effects) and DaVinci Resolve

  • Strong knowledge of production equipment, lighting, audio and studio workflows

  • Hands-on experience delivering long-form edits (e.g. podcast episodes,documentary-style content) and short-form edits for social and digital platforms

  • Demonstrable experience working with on-screen talent and managing external suppliers and freelancers

  • Experience integrating AI tools into production workflows to improve efficiency without compromising quality

  • Experience working in video podcasts, digital media or broadcast is highly desirable

  • Genuine passion for podcasts, social content and the evolving media landscape

Personal Attributes

  • A strong, distinctive creative vision – with the confidence to push ideas and the judgment to know when to hold firm and when to flex

  • Committed to craft and quality, with a genuine attention to detail across every aspect of production

  • A collaborative leader who builds trust internally and externally, and brings people along rather than directing from a distance

  • Exceptionally organised, with strong ownership of projects and the ability to manage competing priorities calmly

  • Solutions-focused and composed under pressure, with a track record of delivering in fast-moving environments

  • A natural communicator and team builder, able to give feedback that motivates and develops

  • Enthusiastic about the medium – someone who cares about what audiences experience, not just what gets delivered
