Job description

We're looking for a Dubai-based Founder Content Creator & Videographer to become the visual storyteller behind a growing personal brand. This isn't a marketing coordinator or editor-only role - you'll be embedded with the founder, filming and editing content end-to-end, directing shoots, and helping shape a brand's story across social media.

Think less "social media manager," more founder-embedded storyteller.

What You'll Do



• Film and edit short-form content end-to-end (no handoffs - you own the full process)
• Direct the founder during shoots to get the best, most authentic footage
• Develop hooks, story angles, and recurring series ideas - spotting a story in an ordinary business day
• Publish across Instagram Reels/Stories, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts, adapting content per platform
• Track performance (watch time, completion, saves, shares) and iterate based on what's working
• Maintain organized raw footage, project files, and a running content/idea board

Skills

What You Need

• Based in Dubai/UAE already (remote applicants will not be considered)
• Strong command of English
• A portfolio of at least 3 strong short-form pieces where your own contribution (filming and/or editing) is clearly explained
• Proven end-to-end skills - you can both film and edit, not just one or the other
• Proficiency in CapCut (Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro is a bonus)
• Fast, independent, reliable, and open to feedback
• A driver's license and own mobility in Dubai is a strong plus

Nice to Have

• Experience creating content for founders, entrepreneurs, or personal brands
• Background in real estate, hospitality, lifestyle, or event content
• An eye for documentary-style or behind-the-scenes storytelling
• German language skills (not required, but a plus for our DACH-market audience)

What This Role Is Not



• Not a classic marketing manager or performance marketer role
• Not a social media manager who mainly manages calendars, posts, and reports
• Not a graphic designer or Canva specialist
• Not a cameraman who only films on exact instruction
• Not an editor who waits for finished raw footage

Work Rhythm

• One prepared content/shoot block per week, plus selective coverage of relevant meetings and events
• You bring hooks, themes, and series ideas to each session - not the other way around
• First cuts delivered within 24–48 hours, with a short, consolidated feedback round
• Target output: consistent weekly short-form content, expanding to Stories, TikTok/Shorts adaptation, and select LinkedIn founder moments

• A 30–60 second intro video: Why are you the right person for this role?
• Your current location and visa status
