Flexible Social Media Videographer — Real Estate Brand Storytelling

Job Position(s): Flexible Social Media Videographer — Real Estate Brand Storytelling

Rentlife is hiring a Flexible Social Media Videographer for real estate brand storytelling, based in Birmingham, England. This is a shoot-and-edit role sitting within a small content production workflow, with output focused on short-form vertical video for Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. It suits a self-shooting editor who is comfortable working independently on location and understands how social media video production differs from traditional broadcast formats.

About the Role

The position sits at the intersection of property marketing and social video production, with Rentlife building out its content library across Birmingham’s rental market. A typical day involves travelling to residential locations to film on-site, then turning around edited short-form content with a quick turnaround post-production workflow. The work is structured around flexible hours, billed at an hourly or project rate depending on the assignment.

Key Responsibilities

• Film on-location at rental properties across Birmingham, capturing footage that serves both property showcase and brand narrative functions.
• Edit short-form social video production content optimised for vertical formats including Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
• Develop visual storytelling approaches that distinguish Rentlife’s content from generic property listing footage.
• Support landlord-facing marketing by producing video assets that communicate rental appeal to prospective tenants.
• Manage your own shoot schedule, equipment, and post-production workflow from brief through to delivery.
• Contribute to the overall content strategy as the brand grows, with scope to shape the visual language of the channel.

What You Bring

• Demonstrated experience in short-form social video production, with a portfolio showing self-shot and edited work.
• Proficiency in a current non-linear editing system, such as Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or CapCut for mobile-first workflows.
• Working knowledge of shooting for vertical frame ratios and platform-specific pacing conventions.
• Ability to work independently on location without a crew, handling camera operation, audio, and basic lighting setups.
• Existing credits in brand content, real estate video, or comparable commercial production are an advantage.

Why This Role

Rentlife is a growing property brand with a genuine need to build its content presence from the ground up, which means the person coming into this Flexible Social Media Videographer role will have real influence over what gets made. The flexible structure suits someone building a freelance client base alongside other production commitments. Mentorship is available as part of the engagement, making this a reasonable portfolio-building opportunity for someone earlier in their commercial video career.
