The role and responsibilities

As Head of Video Content, you will lead and manage a team of producer/directors, video editors, and a post-production manager, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, engaging, and impactful video content. You will oversee multiple video projects simultaneously, keeping workflows efficient and production timelines on track.

Unifrog’s video content helps young people make informed decisions about their future. This includes Careers Library profiles featuring professionals discussing their jobs, Subject Library profiles where university students share insights into their studies, and Employer and University profiles offering a glimpse into these organisations. We also produce course videos for online learning as well as internal marketing content.

Collaboration will be central to your work, as you’ll liaise with internal teams—particularly Higher Education, Employer, and Marketing teams—as well as external partners to ensure our content is engaging, informative, and aligned with audience needs. 

While primarily a leadership role, this position also requires hands-on expertise in either producing/directing or video editing/post-production (ideally both). Depending on your background, you’ll step in to lead shoots or support edits as needed, providing informed feedback and ensuring high creative and technical standards.

Leadership and management 

• Proven line management experience, with the ability to inspire and motivate a team.

• Strong decision-making skills to navigate complex situations and competing priorities.

• Ability to communicate effectively, providing clear instructions, constructive feedback, and regular performance evaluations.

• Highly organised and forward-thinking, with the ability to schedule shoots and/or edits efficiently.

• Strong project management skills to oversee multiple projects, ensuring deadlines and lead times are met.

• Ability to evaluate existing workflows and implement improvements to enhance productivity and content quality.

Creative and editorial excellence

• A clear vision for creating impactful video content that resonates with audiences, particularly young people.

• Awareness of video trends and audience expectations, ensuring the team produces cutting-edge content.

• Strong editorial judgment and an eye for detail to maintain high production standards.

• Creative problem-solving skills to find innovative solutions in fast-paced production environments.

Communication and collaboration

• Strong professional communication skills to engage with internal teams and external partners effectively.

• A collaborative approach to work closely with Higher Education, Employer, and Marketing teams to align video content with strategic goals.

Technical expertise 

• In-depth knowledge of video production processes, from pre-production to post-production.

• Expertise in either filming/producing/directing or video editing and post-production (ideally both), with the ability to guide and mentor the team.

For producing and directing:

• Ability to schedule and organise shoots effectively, ensuring smooth production workflows.

• Skilled in operating professional cameras, such as the A7S, and adept at handling lighting and sound equipment.

• Capability to direct shoots effectively, working collaboratively with stakeholders who may not be familiar with video production requirements.

For video editing and post-production:

• Ability to manage and coordinate the team’s editing schedule, ensuring deadlines are met and final outputs meet high standards.

• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Premiere and a basic understanding of the creation of motion graphics animations.

• A keen understanding of storytelling and pacing to create engaging, audience-focused edits.

• Capability to handle sound design, colour grading, and other elements required for technical and creative excellence.

• Ability to integrate constructive feedback efficiently, ensuring quality and consistency across all deliverables.

This role is perfect for someone who’s passionate, motivated, and thrives in a dynamic environment. You’ll enjoy balancing multiple responsibilities while ensuring creative output aligns with Unifrog’s mission and objectives. If you bring a strong technical foundation, leadership experience, and a knack for creative innovation, we’d be excited to hear from you.

We also randomise the order of responses so that it’s less likely that a candidate is advantaged or disadvantaged by where their answers appear compared to other candidates. 

The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity raises money solely to support The Royal Marsden, a world-leading cancer centre. We ensure our nurses, doctors and research teams can provide the very best care and develop life-saving treatments, which are used across the UK and around the world.

From funding state-of-the-art equipment and ground-breaking research, to creating the very best patient environments, we will never stop looking for ways to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.

We are a very ambitious organisation which has gone through transformational growth over the past five years. Alongside funding an existing programme of world-leading research, treatment and care, the Charity completed its largest capital appeal to date, successfully raising £70 million to build the Oak Cancer Centre at the hospital’s Sutton site, which opened in summer 2023.

We have exceeded our fundraising targets, over the past three years, raising over £90m against a target of £83m and making over £82m in funding available to The Royal Marsden. However, with one in two of us expected to develop some form of cancer, it is essential that we go even further in our fundraising efforts to support the essential work of The Royal Marsden. Therefore, we have recently launched our most ambitious strategy yet, that will see us raising at least £215m over the 5-year period.

The Charity is committed to raising £150 million, through a major fundraising appeal, for a new major development project in Chelsea, which will launch in 2025/26. There is also an extensive portfolio of engaging projects outside of the capital appeals, that help to support all aspects of the hospital’s work to improve the lives of cancer patients.

Working for us offers you a challenging and rewarding career, as well as the chance to really improve the lives of those living with cancer. The Community Fundraising team stewards some of our most dedicated supporters, who organise events and bring their networks together to raise up to six figure sums. We build long lasting relationships with individuals as well as community groups, schools and corporate organisations to raise millions for Charity every year.

This role will play an important part in the engagement of community supporters, identifying new prospects and effectively stewarding existing supporters. You will be a high performing fundraiser with experience of delivering income growth through effective relationship management. You will be ambitious and proactive and relish the opportunity to support the Charity to achieve its ambitious goals.

• Academic and social research – We fund novel and innovative research projects at world-leading institutions that are working towards breakthroughs in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of advanced prostate cancer, and better quality of life outcomes for patients. We ensure that our research is targeted to address patient need and research gaps to maximise our impact and reach better treatments for patients sooner.

• Patient information and empowerment – We acknowledge that research alone is not enough to achieve our vision. We involve, educate, and empower people affected by prostate cancer to enable them to play a more active role in driving forward changes in research, treatment and care.

• Influencing – We seek to ensure greater equity of treatment and parity of care, and are working towards a world where no man is left behind, where prostate cancer is caught early and can be cured. 

Our vision for the future is clear: to be an integral part of creating one of the healthiest ecosystems for any disease type. An ecosystem that is connected, collaborative, equitable, and effective. Over the next 3 years we are setting ambitious targets to double our research funding, accelerate twelve biotech ventures, engage at least 100,000 people in influencing change, initiate three novel projects to enhance equity, and grow our income to more than £7 million.

About Prostate Cancer Research 

Prostate Cancer Research (PCR) is a research and information provision charity that is dedicated to improving and saving the lives of people with prostate cancer. Patients are central to everything we do and drive our work. Our work covers four key areas:

• Academic and social research – We fund novel and innovative research projects at world-leading institutions that are working towards breakthroughs in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of advanced prostate cancer, and better quality of life outcomes for patients. We ensure that our research is targeted to address patient need and research gaps to maximise our impact and reach better treatments for patients sooner.

• Translational research – We set up Proven Connect, the translational research arm of PCR, to focus on ensuring more promising treatments get from lab to patient through bridging the gap between industry, investors, health providers and patients.

• Patient information and empowerment – We acknowledge that research alone is not enough to achieve our vision. We involve, educate, and empower people affected by prostate cancer to enable them to play a more active role in driving forward changes in research, treatment and care.

• Influencing – We seek to ensure greater equity of treatment and parity of care, and are working towards a world where no man is left behind, where prostate cancer is caught early and can be cured. 

Our vision for the future is clear: to be an integral part of creating one of the healthiest ecosystems for any disease type. An ecosystem that is connected, collaborative, equitable, and effective. Over the next 3 years we are setting ambitious targets to double our research funding, accelerate twelve biotech ventures, engage at least 100,000 people in influencing change, initiate three novel projects to enhance equity, and grow our income to more than £7 million.
