Content Creator (Videographer / Editor) - Performance

About the roleTIDAL is a brand-led performance marketing agency headquartered in Dubai, working with clients across the UAE, UK and beyond.We’re building an in-house content capability and looking for a Videographer & Editor - someone who can turn up to a shoot, capture everything a campaign needs, and turn it into performance-ready assets themselves.This is not a brand-film role. You won’t be making one polished hero film a month. You’ll be producing volume and variety - multiple hooks, formats and angles from every shoot, built to be tested across paid campaigns.The best-performing creative is the fuel the whole system runs on, and you’ll own producing it end to end.You’ll shoot founder content, lifestyle, product and location work across a range of clients, then edit your footage into the cutdowns and variations our paid teams can run and test. In quieter periods, you’ll also build TIDAL’s own content library.It’s a hands-on, high-output role for someone who is as comfortable behind the camera and in front of a client as they are in the edit.What you’ll doShoot across client accounts - founder and team content, lifestyle, product, location and short-form paid contentEdit your own footage into multiple paid-ready variants, rather than single finished piecesWork from briefs created by our strategy and paid teams, turning campaign requirements into creative assetsProduce reactive, fast-turnaround content when a live campaign needs a specific assetManage your own shoot schedule across multiple retained clientsWork directly with clients on shoots and represent TIDAL professionally on locationBuild TIDAL’s own paid and social content during available timeOrganise and maintain footage and project files so content can be reused and repurposedWhat we’re looking forStrong across both shooting and editing - this role genuinely needs both, not one with a bit of the otherA strong reel or portfolio showing short-form content made for social and paid media - not just wedding videos or polished corporate filmsComfortable working quickly and at volume without letting quality slipAble to self-direct on a shoot and work from a brief without needing a full production crew around youComfortable coming up with hooks, angles and ways to capture multiple pieces of content from a single shootConfident working directly with clients and able to get the best out of people on cameraBased in or able to work from Dubai, with a UAE driving licence or reliable means of travelling between shootsOwns or has access to their own camera and production kit, or can clearly explain what additional equipment you would needNice to haveExperience creating content specifically for Meta and TikTok paid campaignsAn understanding of why creative variety, testing and iteration matter to paid performanceMotion graphics or light VFXExperience working with founders, executives or talent who aren't professional creatorsExperience shooting in fast-moving environments where you need to capture a lot of usable content in a limited amount of timeThe kind of person who will do well hereYou’re probably not someone who wants to spend three weeks perfecting a 60-second brand film.You’d rather shoot 30 pieces of content, find the strongest hooks, cut five different versions, get them live and see what actually works.You’re commercially minded, comfortable with feedback and interested in why a piece of creative performs - not just whether it looks good.You’ll have a lot of autonomy, a lot of variety and plenty of opportunities to work with interesting brands and people. In return, we’ll expect you to take ownership of the whole process - from camera to final export.
