About Wonderbly

Wonderbly creates personalised books and gifts that help people celebrate life's moments in a more meaningful way. From children's stories to keepsake gifts, our products combine creativity, storytelling and personalisation to create something genuinely special.

We're now evolving our creative model to better support the next phase of growth, increasing creative velocity, strengthening video and performance creative capability and building a more effective in house engine across paid, CRM, onsite and brand touchpoints.

The Role

We're looking for a Content Creator to join the Creative team and bring Wonderbly to life through engaging video and social content across our marketing channels.

This is a hands on role for someone who knows how to turn a creative brief into engaging content. You'll work closely with Creative Strategy and the wider Marketing team to understand what we're trying to say, then figure out the most effective and compelling way to tell that story.

You'll be particularly focused on shooting and editing social-first content, with paid social a big part of the role. You'll be behind the camera, in the edit and involved in shaping how ideas come to life, from the first treatment through to the final asset.

With a performance-first mindset, you'll think about the hook, the pacing, the format, the platform and what will make someone want to keep watching. You’ll know how to get the most out of a good idea, coming up with iterations to figure out what resonates most.

You'll work across product, lifestyle, UGC style and concept led content. You'll bring your own creative point of view and ideas, while being comfortable working within a wider creative direction and taking input from different stakeholders.
