  • Write and produce video content across gameplay, cinematic and live-action formats.
  • Create comprehensive pre-production documentation to ensure shoots and productions run smoothly.
  • Act as cinematographer on shoots and capture high-quality in-game footage across titles including RuneScape and Old School RuneScape.
  • Edit video content using Adobe Premiere Pro and create motion graphics in After Effects for stakeholders across the business.
  • Produce marketing content for major events such as RuneFest, including sponsorship, keynote and Golden Gnome Awards assets.
  • Support live-stream productions and workflows, including content produced from the Jagex broadcast studio.
  • Work closely with Creative Services and wider teams to plan, schedule and deliver projects against agreed briefs, deadlines and review gates.
  • Bring current video, social and creative trends into your work, ensuring our content remains engaging, relevant and high quality.
  • Collaborate with freelancers, agencies and internal creative teams where required to deliver ambitious content at scale.

What we're looking for:

  • Strong hands-on expertise with Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects.
  • Proven experience shooting and editing high-quality video alongside creating engaging motion graphics.
  • A well-rounded creative skillset, combining strong ideas and storytelling instincts with the ability to execute them.
  • Confidence working autonomously from a brief and taking ownership of your workload, deadlines and review milestones.
  • Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with experience working across multiple creative and non-creative disciplines.
  • Ability to work in a hybrid pattern, including travelling to our Cambridge HQ when required for shoots, live productions and key milestones.

Bonus skills:
