About the Role

You will be embedded in a compositing team working directly alongside Compositing Leads, Supervisors, and Producers to shape the approach for each shot from brief through to delivery.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain comp setups in Nuke to integrate live-action plates with 2D and 3D rendered elements to a feature film standard.
• Work with Compositing Leads and VFX Supervisors to establish the technical and creative approach for each shot before work begins.
• Track shot progress against production schedules and flag any technical or timeline risks to the production team early.
• Communicate clearly with Production on the status of your shots, ensuring the wider post-production workflow stays on track.
• Maintain consistency across your shots in terms of colour, grain, motion blur, and depth integration to support a coherent final image.
• Contribute to internal shot reviews, taking on notes from supervisors and iterating quickly within the VFX pipeline.

What You Bring

• Demonstrable experience as a compositor on high-end feature film or episodic television productions, with credits to support it.
• Strong proficiency in Nuke as your primary compositing tool, with a solid understanding of node-based workflows.
• Experience working within a structured VFX pipeline, including familiarity with render passes, AOVs, and plate management.
• The ability to balance technical problem-solving with meeting the creative brief on a shot-by-shot basis.
• Based in or able to work from the Greater London area, as this is an on-site position.
