Content Creator – Videography & Photography
Job Description

About us

We’re CHEAT DAZE, a growing dessert brand with big ambitions and new stores opening across the UK. From indulgent product launches to behind-the-scenes moments, we’ve got plenty to show—and we’re looking for someone who can bring it to life.

We’re building a two-person creative team and looking for a hands-on Content Creator with strong videography, photography and editing skills. You’ll work alongside our Graphic Designer \& Social Media Executive to create content that makes people stop scrolling and want to visit.

What you’ll be doing

  • Plan, film and edit videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels, Stories, paid campaigns and other digital channels.
  • Photograph desserts, drinks, stores and people for social media, menus, our website and promotional materials.
  • Capture store openings, product launches and behind-the-scenes footage across our branches.
  • Create natural, phone-shot content alongside polished promotional videos.
  • Be comfortable appearing on camera for product introductions, reactions and presenter-led content, and help colleagues feel confident on camera too.
  • Pitch creative concepts, hooks and trends that suit the Cheat Daze brand.
  • Prepare shot lists and organise shoots with our team and branches.
  • Adapt footage into different formats, lengths and versions for use across campaigns.
  • Work with visiting creators, influencers and foodies when content collaborations are arranged.
  • Maintain an organised library of footage, photographs and finished content.
  • Review content performance with your teammate and use the findings to improve future shoots and edits.

What we’re looking for

  • A strong portfolio of short-form video content and photography.
  • Confidence using cameras, smartphones, lighting and audio equipment.
  • Strong editing skills using tools such as Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or CapCut.
  • An eye for lighting, composition, food presentation and detail.
  • An understanding of what makes TikTok and Instagram content engaging, including strong openings, pacing and storytelling.
  • Confidence both behind and in front of the camera.
  • Someone organised, proactive and able to take a brief from initial idea through to finished content.
  • Willingness to travel to branches and attend occasional evening or weekend launches, with arrangements agreed in advance.

Experience in food, hospitality, retail or consumer brands would be a bonus. Your portfolio matters more to us than a particular qualification.

Why join Cheat Daze?

  • Help shape the visual identity and content of a growing dessert brand.
  • Work alongside a creative teammate and directly with the wider business.
  • Have room to pitch ideas, experiment and develop your skills.
  • See your work used across branch launches, product campaigns and national brand channels.
  • Enjoy a varied role combining shoots, editing, travel and creative planning.
