Job Description

Unifrog’s mission

We’re on a mission to level the playing field when it comes to young people finding and applying for their next step after school. We're achieving this by bringing all the available information into one single, impartial, user-friendly platform that helps students to make the best choices and submit the strongest applications. We also empower teachers and counsellors to manage the progression process effectively.

Our outlook is global - we work with schools and universities all over the world, from the US to New Zealand, and from Italy to Hong Kong. We want to make it so that young people can compare every opportunity taught in English, wherever it is in the world, and have all the support they need to make successful applications.

We have a clear social purpose and are hugely ambitious. We already work with over half of UK secondary schools and hundreds of international schools. We are growing rapidly in terms of the number of our customers, in terms of how much they use our platform, and in terms of the breadth of products we offer.

Our team is at the heart of our business and is integral to our success. We work hard to foster a culture of openness, happiness, and innovation, and we commit to helping every individual learn and grow so that they can reach their full potential. We want to hire talented people, whatever their background. If you are excited by our mission and are ready to work hard, please don’t hesitate to apply. We look forward to hearing from you!

We believe in the power of diversity. If you are from an ethnic minority background, we would like to strongly encourage you to apply. In advance of applying, if you have any questions about working at Unifrog, please contact [email protected]

The role and responsibilities

As Head of Video Content, you will lead and manage a team of producer / directors, video editors, and a post-production manager, ensuring the delivery of high-quality, engaging, and impactful video content. You will oversee multiple video projects simultaneously, keeping workflows efficient and production timelines on track.

Unifrog’s video content helps young people make informed decisions about their future. This includes Careers Library profiles featuring professionals discussing their jobs, Subject Library profiles where university students share insights into their studies, and Employer and University profiles offering a glimpse into these organisations. We also produce course videos for online learning as well as internal marketing content.

Collaboration will be central to your work, as you’ll liaise with internal teams—particularly Higher Education, Employer, and Marketing teams—as well as external partners to ensure our content is engaging, informative, and aligned with audience needs.

While primarily a leadership role, this position also requires hands-on expertise in either producing / directing or video editing / post-production (ideally both). Depending on your background, you’ll step in to lead shoots or support edits as needed, providing informed feedback and ensuring high creative and technical standards.

If you require reasonable adjustments or want to discuss any details about the role before applying, please contact [email protected]

Application process

Deadline : 10 : 00AM (GMT) on Friday 21st February 2025.

Stage 2 : Task (2 hours)

For the next stage of the application process, we’ll ask you to provide feedback on a video. We will send you instructions if you are successful in the first application stage. We will be scheduling these tasks after the application deadline.

Stage 3 : Video call interview (1 hour)

Standard Q&A from a panel of three, including questions about your experiences and how these relate to the role, and scenario questions based on common situations you might face (plus time for your questions).

Video call interviews will be held Thursday 6th March 2025.

Your answers are an opportunity to let us know more about your motivations and experience. While we understand that candidates might want to use AI to improve parts of their application, we strongly encourage you to write your answers independently.

Please note, we compare all answers to an AI generated answer. Where we suspect AI has been used to write the majority of the answer, this will be taken into consideration when scoring.

Inclusion and diversity at Unifrog

Within the company we try to foster a culture of innovation and a happy working environment, both because this is the right thing to do, and because we think this results in the most effective team. To this end we believe in open communication, celebrating successes, supporting each other, not being afraid to be wrong or to fail, and promoting good ideas wherever they come from.

As a platform that supports teachers and students from a huge variety of backgrounds it’s important that our team and leadership reflects this diversity. This is something we are actively working towards and prioritising. We want to embed diversity, equity, and inclusion across everything we do, continually evaluating policies and practices to make sure they are inclusive and equitable.

To make sure everyone’s voice is heard and people have the opportunities to learn to be better allies in the workplace, we encourage the team to share what they’re celebrating, facilitate training and group discussions, and seek regular feedback about what more the company could do to help people feel included.

To ensure that our recruitment process is consistent and fair, we anonymise your application and therefore do not see your name, personal, educational or professional background. We also randomise the order of responses so that it’s less likely that a candidate is advantaged or disadvantaged by where their answers appear compared to other candidates.
