Videographer

Hey! We’re Kukoon and we’re pleased to meet you! We're going to start by talking about our exciting new Videographer position, but if you'd like to know more about the company then just reach out and we’ll fill you in!

The role

Kukoon is a popular instore and online homeware brand that caters to the trend conscious customer. We’re known for a diverse range of rugs and we pride ourselves on staying ahead of homeware trends, providing customers with the latest styles and designs at affordable prices. This is an exciting time to join this forward thinking, progressive brand. Passionate about creating compelling visual content that showcases the product and the brand in the best possible light. We are seeking a talented and creative videographer to join our team and help us elevate the brand through captivating visual content.

As our Videographer, you'll be responsible for shooting, editing and optimising product, social and brand videos. Along with our marketing team you will be involved in developing ideas to grow our social following and build our brand presence in the Irish and UK markets. Shooting product videos for use on our website and other online sales channels will also be a key part of this job.

What else will I be doing…

• Managing your time effectively to produce video content to achieve KPIs and meet targets
• Working with the marketing/brand/ecomm team to storyboard ideas, report back on performance and plan for upcoming campaigns (yes you’ll have to go to meetings!)
• Video production: Plan and execute video shoots for our social media channels, product launches, marketing campaigns and lifestyle shoots
• Ensure proper lighting and audio setup for all shoots to achieve optimal video quality
• Developing a robust reporting process to reflect your performance against KPIs and goals. (KPIs will be around quantity of videos, video engagement, growth of social as a sales channel, product videos on time and on spec!)
• Maintain and organise video equipment and keep it in excellent working condition
• Maintaining and challenging standards across all channels in keeping with our brand direction

What we're looking for in you

• Demonstrable videographer experience, shooting engaging social videos, brand videos and product videos
• Proven track record of producing videos that achieve results and meet specifications
• Experience with Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop and post-production techniques
• Experience with motion graphics and 2D animation and a strong understanding of video editing techniques, colour grading and audio mixing
• Creative thinking and the ability to translate concepts into visually appealing videos
• Brand Consistency: Ensure that all video content aligns with the brands style and voice
• A good sense of humour, if you're the kind of person who thinks that puns and dad jokes are a form of art, then you're already halfway there . Loving home interiors is a definite plus!
• But it's not all fun and games (although it mostly is). You'll need to have the analytical skills of a data scientist to know what's working and what's not, and be as flexible as a yoga instructor (because plans change!)
• We're looking for someone who's not afraid to take risks, push boundaries, and bring a little bit of sass to our brand.
• Rugs are heavy! Good physical fitness and a can-do attitude is a must.
• Driving licence essential
• So, if you're ready to take on the challenge of bringing 2D, inanimate objects to life then send us your CV and let's see if you're Kukoon material.

This role is based in our Newry offices. We like to look lovingly at each other across the office floor and throw paper aeroplanes so unfortunately no remote working is available!

What do we offer in return?

We have a high-performance culture which is balanced evenly with work and play:

• 4 day working week, 6 months per year! Have every Friday off between April and September without using any Annual Leave!
• Highly competitive salary
• 28 days annual leave that increases with length of service up to 38 days!
• Joining one of the UK’s top online Home & Decor companies, with ambitious growth targets and significant international expansion plans.
• Experience in a fast paced digital-first company that thrives on continually improving
• Electric Car onsite charging
• Enhanced Maternity Pay
• Basically giving rugs away for free with a huge employee discount!
• Great working culture that values people who work hard, achieve results and like to have a bit of craic doing it.
• Perfect for someone who thrives in a company championing work/life balance
