PerfectTed is one of the world's fastest-growing matcha brands, building a category-defining consumer business with a clear ambition to become a unicorn.
We started in 2021 and are now one of the most recognisable matcha brands in the world and the UK's fastest-growing retail brand, stocked by major retailers, sold direct-to-consumer, and loved by a fast-growing global community.
This is a rare chance to join a brand at the inflection point, early enough to shape its identity from the inside, and at a scale where your work will be seen by millions.
PerfectTed is looking for a Film-maker, Videographer & Editor (or two people working as a creative duo) to join our new in-house creative hub and become the engine behind PerfectTed's video world across both the brand and our founders' personal brands.
You’ll turn everyday moments into content people genuinely want to watch. From filming founders on the road, at retail launches, events and in the office, to creating viral short-form content and developing ambitious long-form YouTube series, you’ll help define how one of the UK's fastest-growing challenger brands tells its story.
Whether you’re an all-round filmmaker who loves shooting and editing, or a specialist who works best as part of a filmmaker/editor partnership, we’d love to hear what setup brings out your best work.
Key Responsibilities
- Film founders and the wider team during launches, travel, retail visits, events and day-to-day moments, ensuring nothing worth capturing gets missed
- Travel with founders as required to capture key business moments and content opportunities
- Shoot high-quality footage across a variety of environments, from fast-paced events to behind-the-scenes office moments
Edit Content That People Actually Want to Watch
- Edit short-form content for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn that is story-led, platform-native and highly engaging
- Create content that feels authentic rather than overly polished or corporate
- Deliver fast, high-quality edits under tight deadlines
Build Our YouTube Presence
- Own long-form YouTube production from concept through to publishing
- Develop original episodic content and new series ideas alongside the wider team
- Help establish PerfectTed as one of the most entertaining founder-led brands online
- Bring fresh ideas for formats, storylines and cultural moments
- Work collaboratively with marketing, design and social teams to bring ideas to life
- Organise, catalogue and archive footage so content can be easily found and repurposed
- Maintain efficient editing and file management workflows
Be There When It Matters
- Be available for occasional evening and weekend shoots when launches, events or major opportunities require it
- Travel with founders when needed to capture important moments across the business
Requirements
Must-Haves
- A portfolio showcasing high-quality filmmaking, videography and editing work from concept through to final delivery
- Strong experience creating both short-form and long-form content
- Excellent editorial judgement and storytelling instincts
- Fast, high-quality editing using industry-standard software
- Comfortable filming in fast-moving, unpredictable environments
- Genuine flexibility to travel with founders and work occasional evenings or weekends around key business moments
- AI-first mentality – you’re already building AI into every part of your workflow. From concept generation and storyboarding to planning, filming, editing, caption writing, scheduling, publishing and performance analysis, AI helps you create better work, faster. You’re naturally curious, stay on top of emerging AI tools, and are always looking for ways to improve creative output and efficiency.
Nice-to-Haves (but not necessary)
- Experience working with founders, creators or personal brands
- Experience producing YouTube series or documentary-style content
- Motion graphics or animation skills
- Photography experience
The Ideal Candidate Is
- Obsessed with storytelling and knows how to find a great narrative in everyday moments
- Comfortable with an unpredictable schedule and excited by the pace of a founder-led business
- Happy to travel with founders at short notice and capture content wherever the story takes you
- Calm under pressure and thrives in fast-moving environments
- Naturally creative, proactive and full of ideas
- Excited by the opportunity to help build one of the UK's most recognisable challenger brands
- Competitive salary + EMI options scheme (real equity upside in one of the UK's fastest-growing brands)
- A stunning Shoreditch office at the Tea Building, shared with inspiring, high-performing people
- The opportunity to build the visual identity of one of the UK's fastest-growing consumer brands, with your work seen by millions
- A front-row seat as we build the world's biggest matcha brand
TLDR
PerfectTed is building an in-house creative hub and we’re looking for a filmmaker who can capture the moments that matter and turn them into content people actually want to watch. From documenting our founders’ journey to creating viral short-form and ambitious YouTube series, you’ll help shape the visual identity of one of the UK's fastest-growing consumer brands. This is a demanding, fast-paced role, so expect travel with founders and occasional evening and weekend shoots rather than a standard 9-to-5. If you love storytelling, move fast with a camera, and want your work seen by millions, this is your role.
