Video is how many of our clients’ customers discover them. As our Videographer you will plan, shoot and edit content for Persmon and for Persmon Marketing clients: social reels, client stories, event coverage and walkthroughs of the websites and systems we build.

  • Plan shoots with the marketing team, including concepts, scripts, shot lists and schedules.

  • Edit short-form vertical video for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and YouTube Shorts, plus longer pieces for YouTube and websites.
  • Record and edit screen walkthroughs and demos of the software we build.
  • Handle colour, sound, captions, music licensing and basic motion graphics.
  • Organise and back up footage, and keep a library of reusable shots for clients.

  • A portfolio or showreel that shows your filming and editing; please include a link with your application.
  • Experience with an editor such as Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or CapCut.
  • Good understanding of lighting, framing and clean audio for interviews.
  • Knows what works on short-form platforms: hooks, pacing and captions.
  • Reliable, comfortable directing people on camera, and able to work to deadlines.
  • Based in or able to travel around Kampala; your own camera kit is a plus, not a requirement.
