Social & Content Manager - Pet & Confectionary

ZURU CREATIVE

Welcome to ZURU Creative - and our mission is to be the best in the world. We don't make ads. We make culture. We fill feeds with ideas that stop thumbs, spark FOMO and build brand worlds people want to live in.

We're growing our team and we need someone who is part editor, part crafter, part storyteller — someone who lives in the timeline and never settles for "good enough."

Anyone can point a camera. You make people feel something.

THE ROLE

What You Are - The Maker & Storyteller. You are ZURU Creative's production powerhouse. Part editor, part crafter and part creator. You bring ideas and stories to life through crafted content, either out in the world or in the studio, with a camera or with AI, polished format or raw and real. You understand the creative brief and you have the skills to deliver on it: frame by frame, cut by cut, post by post.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Production & Craft

• Film and edit content across a range of formats - short-form social, long-form, product, lifestyle, reactive and campaign.

• Shoot on location and in studio - comfortable in both environments, with the flexibility to adapt to any brief.

• Master mixed media and AI formats - utilising generative AI, motion and mixed media to push what content can look and feel like.

• Maintain high craft standards - from framing to colour grade to sound, you care about every detail in every frame.

Creative & Collaboration

• Bring creative concepts to life - working from briefs and scripts provided by Creatives and S&C Managers to execute with vision.

• Contribute your own ideas - your on-the-ground perspective is valuable. If you see a better angle, say it.

• Stay platform-native - you know how content needs to look and feel on TikTok vs Instagram vs YouTube and you create accordingly.

• Manage your own post-production - from raw footage to final cut, you own the edit end to end.

WHAT YOU BRING

Skills & Experience

• 2-4 years worth of strong filming and editing portfolio - work that shows range, craft and a genuine creative point of view.

• Editing suite fluency - Premiere Pro, CapCut, DaVinci or equivalent. You're fast, clean and skilled.

• AI and mixed media experience - actively using generative AI tools to create, enhance and push the boundaries of content.

• Social platform knowledge - you understand what performs, why it performs, and how to make it for each platform.

Mindset & Energy

• Storyteller at heart - every piece of content is a chance to make someone feel something.

• Self-starter energy - you don't wait to be told what to do. You show up, set up and make it happen.

• Adaptable and curious - formats change, tools evolve, briefs surprise you. You love it.

• Collaborative spirit - you make the whole team's work better and you're genuinely fun to be on set with.

WHY ZURU

• Variety | Never The Same Brief Twice: Multiple brands, multiple formats, multiple markets. Your skills will be challenged and developed constantly.

• Scale | Your Work Travels: Content you shoot in Auckland reaches millions of fans across the world. Real reach, real impact, real audiences.

• Culture | Best-In-Class Team: Working with people who are obsessive about craft, culture and pushing what content can be — inside a company that backs bold.

We don't make ads, we make culture. If you're the one who makes it real - we want to hear from you.
