Want to be part of a collaborative Brisbane team that values craft, balance, and great work without the burnout, all while wrapping up at 1 pm on Fridays? Looking for a role where you can lead on set, shape the edit, and grow your career with real ownership in a supportive and innovative environment? Then look no further, your dream job awaits A Bit About Us Narrative Hub is a content-first creative marketing agency, specialising in high-quality content creation and results-driven social media marketing. We help brands connect with their audiences through engaging organic content, strategic paid ads, and compelling storytelling. We are a team of creatives, storytellers, and strategists who take pride in delivering content that not only looks great but also achieves real business outcomes. Collaboration is at the heart of what we do, and we foster an environment where creativity, strategy, and passion come together to produce meaningful work. A Bit About You You live for shoot days and know how to turn real people and real places into stories that resonate. Interviews, b roll, events and doco style pieces are familiar ground, and you’re just as comfortable working across property, construction and hospitality. A visual thinker who stays calm under pressure, you plan with the brief in mind and capture footage that actually cuts together creatively, whether it’s for a retainer client or a hero brand piece. Leadership and organisation won’t be beyond you either. You lead solo shoots and small crews with quiet confidence, make clear calls on locations and gear, direct talent with care and keep the day moving. Back at base you ingest and manage media with precision so anyone can step in without hunting for files. Between jobs, you can put the project manager hat on and organise work, plan shoots and communicate with the client. Three or more years would be ideal, but of course in this game, the proof is in the pudding. Your showreel should say more about you than a ChatGPT’d cover letter ever could. You communicate clearly, look after the kit and ship on time. Creative, strategic and adaptable, you care about the craft and the result in equal measure. You’re the ultimate team player and adopt the attitude of “Your job isn’t done until THE job is done.” The Role This is a hands on lead shooter role that blends creativity with strategy across retainers and one off projects. You will help plan shoots, then run on set production for interviews, b roll, events and doco style brand pieces across property, construction, hospitality and a variety of other industries. In a try hybrid shooter role, you will be just as comfortable capturing still photography, from headshots, events, brand content, property/construction and in any of the other industries we play in. You’ll understand flash photography, lighting and how to direct talent for photos as well as video. The edit suite is where you bring it all together. Colour grading, audio treatment and simple effects are second nature, and you move easily from sharp short form reels, narrative pieces and a variety of other pieces of content with ease. When it’s time for internal content, you know how to keep it fun without losing polish. Collaboration is close with the Managing Director, our Social Media Manager, the Senior Video Editor and the wider social team so every piece feels true to the brief, on brand and on time. Ideally 3+ years of experience as a videographer, with a proven ability of seeing jobs through end to end. Creativity is a must. You’ll be brimming with ideas, but more importantly, ways in which to execute them. Strong technical knowledge. Colour science, camera settings, lighting set ups, audio capture, colour grading, audio treatment and general editing are all required. Photography - Ability to tell stories through still photos, capture moments, use flash photography, bracketing and direct talent for maximum effect. Post Production - Ability to create scroll stopping reels, emotive narratives, high energy event recaps, creative construction updates & property videos as well as assist with our internal content. Composure & positive attitude - Shoot days are fun but sometimes hectic, so a cool head on your shoulders and solution focussed attitude is necessary. Organisation & Time Management - Sometimes you will have a perfectly laid out production plan, other times we will need you to plan shoots from start to finish and liaise with clients. Also ensuring you always have the right gear and are well prepared for shoot days come with the territory. Drone operations - While an RePL is advantageous, at a minimum you should have the necessary drone operation skills and be able to carry out shoots safely. Why Join the Team? Mentorship & Networking - Frequent mentoring both internally and externally as well as regular networking opportunities. Career Progression & Growth - As Narrative Hub continues to grow, so do the opportunities for you to expand your skills, take on more responsibility, and evolve within the team. Balanced & Collaborative Work Environment – No burnouts, just smart, strategic, and impactful work, plus we wrap up at 1pm on Fridays. Diverse & Engaging Clients - Work on a mix of retainers and one-off creative projects. A Supportive & Talented Team - Collaborate with storytellers, videographers, and strategists to produce standout content. Keen to take the next step?
