Cape Town, South Africa Engage Video Group Full time

**About Engage Video Group**

Engage Video Group is a technology-driven social media video business combining data and creativity to create content people really care about. We have worked with global corporations such as Unilever and NESTLÉ to produce the most engaging, shareable content for some of the world’s largest brands, and have built and own the largest food and recipe social media platform in Africa, Foodies of SA.

**Our Purpose**
We believe the advertising industry has a problem: people hate ads. This is why ad-centric content is polluting our social feeds and leading to customer mistrust. By tapping into audience data and testing our content against this audience in real-time, we’re able to create optimised content around topics customers really care about, in the format they love to watch.

**Our Culture**
You’ve probably picked up that we’re pretty passionate about what we do. While we operate globally and have grown fast, we’re a startup at heart, driving real change in the industry through a group of A-players and creatives who are continuously looking to do things differently. Because we prioritise team care over ego, we also happen to have a lot of fun in what we do, too.

**Where You Fit In**
We need great people to help us achieve our goals. If you are exceptional at what you do and passionate about the advertising space and the power it has to make a massive impact on the world, we would love to hear from you.

**About the Team**
In the Production Department and across the business, we have a healthy respect for data. This department is responsible for making our data-driven ideas come to life in beautiful moving pictures. Our production team continuously builds amazing relationships with our shoot teams in SA and builds new relationships with global teams as we expand.
