Videographer & Editor

Hey there

Are you bored of the 'same old-same old'? Are you looking for an exciting change? Maybe something that you didn't think was an option? Maybe you're looking to serve a greater purpose...

Well, you're in luck

We're looking for a videographer/editor who wants to step away from shooting 'bread and butter' content and take a leap into helping us tell the stories of the Construction Industry

TruGrit's Mission is to **'Redefine the Construction Industry'** through Marketing and Leadership Development.

Our **Core Values** are:

- **A**lways Value People
- **B**e Joyful
- **C**lear Communication
- **D**rop the Ego

We aim to helps to elevate companies' online presence by creating shorter form videos for social media platforms like Instagram and LinkedIn as well as longer form videos for websites and company-wide use. You will be a huge part in making a difference in these individual companies, as well as the industry as a whole

Marketing is only half of what we do at TruGrit. We also offer Leadership Development coaching and facilitation to help better communication and culture in the workplace. We're setting out to help solve the workforce problem that is so prevalent in the Construction Industry

If this sounds like something that you want to be a part of, we'd love to hear from you

We should warn you from the get-go... We are a start-up. We're only 2 years old, but are hungry to grow If you're a great fit, you will be someone who gets to grow in responsibility and leadership We want you to see you succeed We want you to use your creative freedom to make kick-ass content We'll offer guidance with our clients, but we won't be hovering over your shoulder telling you what you should and shouldn't do. You're the expert in your field. We'll leave you to do your thing

We see this position as the next exciting step in the growth of TruGrit We think this position might look as follows:
Dylan, one of the owners, frequently visits active jobsites to capture photographs and talk to field personnel. Often, our scope of works includes video and photo. It's hard to capture both forms of content and build relationships with only one person. You would be working closely with Dylan on the jobsite, actively capturing footage, whether that be B-Roll or interviews (talking head). Then, you would head back to your home and begin working your magic
