About us
We're CHEAT DAZE, a growing dessert brand with big ambitions and new stores opening across the UK. From indulgent product launches to behind-the-scenes moments, we've got plenty to show—and we're looking for someone who can bring it to life. We're building a two-person creative team and looking for a hands-on Content Creator with strong videography, photography and editing skills. You'll work alongside our Graphic Designer & Social Media Executive to create content that makes people stop scrolling and want to visit.
What you'll be doing
Plan, film and edit videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels, Stories, paid campaigns and other digital channels. Photograph desserts, drinks, stores and people for social media, menus, our website and promotional materials. Capture store openings, product launches and behind-the-scenes footage across our branches. Create natural, phone-shot content alongside polished promotional videos. Be comfortable appearing on camera for product introductions, reactions and presenter-led content, and help colleagues feel confident on camera too. Pitch creative concepts, hooks and trends that suit the Cheat Daze brand. Prepare shot lists and organise shoots with our team and branches. Adapt footage into different formats, lengths and versions for use across campaigns. Work with visiting creators, influencers and foodies when content collaborations are arranged. Maintain an organised library of footage, photographs and finished content. Review content performance with your teammate and use the findings to improve future shoots and edits.
What we're looking for
A strong portfolio of short-form video content and photography. Confidence using cameras, smartphones, lighting and audio equipment. Strong editing skills using tools such as Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or CapCut. An eye for lighting, composition, food presentation and detail. An understanding of what makes TikTok and Instagram content engaging, including strong openings, pacing and storytelling. Confidence both behind and in front of the camera. Someone organised, proactive and able to take a brief from initial idea through to finished content. Willingness to travel to branches and attend occasional evening or weekend launches, with arrangements agreed in advance. Experience in food, hospitality, retail or consumer brands would be a bonus. Your portfolio matters more to us than a particular qualification.
Why join Cheat Daze?
Help shape the visual identity and content of a growing dessert brand. Work alongside a creative teammate and directly with the wider business. Have room to pitch ideas, experiment and develop your skills. See your work used across branch launches, product campaigns and national brand channels. Enjoy a varied role combining shoots, editing, travel and creative planning.
Pay: £29,000.00-£35,000.00 per year
