About HYPE Merseyside

HYPE Merseyside is a youth social enterprise dedicated to creating opportunities, supporting young people to reach their potential and strengthening local communities.

Our work spans youth development, sport, cycling, community activities and international opportunities. We are looking for a creative individual who can help us showcase this work and tell the stories of the people involved.

About the Role

We are looking for a creative, enthusiastic and motivated Content Creator to join HYPE Merseyside. This is an opportunity for someone who enjoys being out in the community, meeting people and creating engaging digital content.

The successful candidate will work across our projects, capturing activities, achievements and experiences and turning them into high-quality content for our social media platforms.

This is not a role where you’ll spend all day behind a desk. We want someone who can get involved, identify interesting stories and bring fresh ideas to how we communicate our work.

Key Responsibilities

• Create engaging video content for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and other social media platforms.
• Film and edit Reels, interviews, testimonials and behind-the-scenes content.
• Capture high-quality photographs across HYPE projects, activities and events.
• Develop creative ideas and campaigns to promote our programmes and opportunities.
• Work alongside staff, volunteers and young people to identify stories worth sharing.
• Plan, organise and schedule content to maintain a consistent social media presence.
• Help grow HYPE’s digital audience and increase engagement across our platforms.
• Maintain an organised library of photographs, videos and other digital content.
• Support the promotion of recruitment opportunities, events and campaigns.

About You

We’re looking for someone who is creative, reliable and confident working independently.

You should have experience creating short-form video content and understand what makes an engaging Instagram Reel or TikTok. You’ll need good communication skills, an eye for photography and video, and the ability to turn everyday moments into interesting stories.

Experience using video-editing software and social media scheduling tools would be beneficial. Most importantly, we’re looking for someone who is motivated, organised and passionate about producing quality work.

What We Offer

• A flexible, paid part-time opportunity.
• Approximately two working days per week.
• An initial three-month paid trial.
• Opportunities to work across a wide range of projects and events.
• The chance to develop your portfolio and creative experience.
• A supportive working environment where your ideas and creativity are encouraged.

How to Apply

We want to see your creativity in action.

As part of your application, we’d like you to produce a 30-second promotional video about HYPE Merseyside, using content available on our website and social media channels.

Please send:

1. A short introduction about yourself.
2. Your CV or a summary of your relevant experience.
3. Examples of previous photography, video or social media work.
4. Your 30-second HYPE promotional video.
