Job Position(s): TikTok Sports Videographer: Creative, Fast-Paced 9:16 Content

Jack & Jill is hiring a TikTok Sports Videographer based in London to lead social-first video production for a major sports property. This role sits at the intersection of live event capture and short-form post-production workflow, with the primary output being 9:16 content cut for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts. It suits a shooter-editor who is comfortable operating independently at live sports events and turning around broadcast-quality vertical content under tight deadlines.

About the Role

You will be embedded within a tech-enabled media group working across a significant sports content slate, responsible for the full production cycle from camera to upload. A typical day might involve shooting courtside or pitchside, then cutting selects into platform-native edits before the final whistle has cooled. The role carries genuine creative ownership, with the expectation that you bring ideas to the shoot, not just the camera.

Key Responsibilities

• Shoot and self-direct 9:16 vertical video at live sports events, capturing high-energy moments that perform natively on TikTok and short-form video platforms.
• Edit footage end-to-end using industry-standard post-production software, applying motion graphics, sound design, and pacing suited to a global youth audience.
• Develop original content concepts that align with the sports property’s tone while meeting platform-specific formatting and length requirements.
• Manage your own production workflow from pre-shoot planning through to final delivery, hitting turnaround times that match the speed of live sports coverage.
• Monitor trending formats and audio across TikTok and Reels, integrating relevant techniques into the short-form video production pipeline.
• Maintain consistent visual language and brand identity across a high volume of content output without sacrificing production quality.

What You Bring

• A demonstrable reel of TikTok or Reels content shot and edited in 9:16, ideally within sports, entertainment, or live event production.
• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro or CapCut at a professional level, with working knowledge of After Effects for motion graphics.
• Experience operating a camera independently in unpredictable live environments, including low-light and fast-action sports settings.
• A strong sense of edit rhythm and an understanding of what drives engagement on short-form video platforms.
• Ability to manage multiple content turnarounds simultaneously without supervision.

Why This Role

Jack & Jill operates within a growing tech-enabled media group with a genuine sports content slate, which means real access to live properties rather than manufactured social content. The creative remit here is broader than most TikTok videographer roles at this level, with the expectation that you contribute to the editorial direction, not just execute briefs. For a shooter-editor looking to build credits in sports media production, this is a role with visible output and room to grow.
