We're hiring! Vacancy for a filmmaker

Are you an experienced shooter-editor looking for your next role? Do you want to work with leading brands across a range of industries? Do you want to travel around the UK filming a variety of content?

If the answer to these questions is yes, this could be the ideal next step in your career.

We want you to match our passion for capturing incredible stories and bring your creative spark to the edits.    

We're proudly based on the south coast, near Portsmouth, and we work out of a studio complete with editing and animation suites. This is where you’ll be based so living within a reasonable commutable distance is a must. Our salaries are competitive for the area and will be based on your experience, starting from £25k+. 

We are one of Hampshire’s premium video production agencies and create over 1,000 videos a year for a range of industries including manufacturing, healthcare, education, charities and television.

• FCPX, AE, Premiere Pro and Photoshop are our preferred tools
• Understanding of codecs, compression, frame rates, hertz etc
• Willing to undergo a background check (we often work with young and vulnerable people)
• This is a full time role and you'll have to be prepared for the odd long day and early start!

In return, you’ll get:

• A competitive salary starting at £25k+
• 28 days holiday per year
• TOIL following out of hours filming

There are numerous perks and benefits to being part of the Millstream team:

• Training for work-related skills (After Effects, drone licence, first aid)
