About the Role
Can you spot the story behind a moment and turn it into video content that makes people stop, watch and act? Join the University of East London's award-winning, high-energy marketing team and help prospective students see what life at UEL could mean for them.

At UEL, we're on a mission to transform lives through education, supporting our vibrant and diverse student community and building a future-facing institution rooted in innovation and inclusion. Our External Relations Directorate brings together specialist teams across communications, marketing, student recruitment and digital, all working together to drive our Vision 2028 forward.

Our dynamic, award-winning External Relations Directorate is a creative, fast-paced environment where no two days are the same. You'll create fresh, audience-led content across social, web, email, campaigns and print, with video at the heart of how we bring the UEL brand and student experience to life.

Here's what you'll be doing:
- Planning, filming and editing original video content for social media, campaigns and the UEL website.
- Finding and shaping authentic stories about our students, courses and university life - always clear about the audience, the purpose and the action the story should inspire.
- Writing clear, engaging copy for social posts, webpages, campaign advertising, case studies and emails.
- Creating and managing content plans and marketing materials, including prospectuses and printed collateral, from brief through to delivery.
- Working with student ambassadors, colleagues, agencies and other creatives, and using performance insight to make content even stronger.

This is a hands-on role for someone who can take a piece of content from idea to final edit. You'll combine strong videography and editorial instincts with a real understanding of why a story matters, who it is for and how it supports student recruitment. You'll manage several projects at once while keeping every piece of work purposeful, accessible and on brand.

We offer a genuinely competitive salary, dependent on experience, and a range of excellent benefits within an outstanding work environment and inclusive culture.
