Content Specialist
You're a video-first creative who gets the Internet. You turn cultural moments, sharp insights, and clear messages into bold, scroll-stopping content that earns attention and changes behavior, at the ballot box, in the boardroom, or beyond. You can shoot it, cut it, and stand behind it in the room.

This role isn't for everyone. On purpose.
We'd rather you rule yourself in or out now than three rounds deep. Here's the truth about the seat.
You'll thrive here if…
- Making something bold and fast that people actually share is what gets you out of bed
- You have sharp timing, strong taste, and the guts to do something different
- You reach for any tool, software, or AI to make the idea better
- You'd rather own the quality bar than wait to be told what good looks like
- Politics, culture, and the Internet are things you follow, not just work on
This role isn't for you if…
- You'd rather follow trends than shape them
- You need tight supervision and a slow, single-track brief
- You think of yourself as a designer who occasionally shoots video, not a video maker first
- You go quiet when a client pushes back instead of defending the work
Don't take our word for it
About Topham Guerin
Topham Guerin is a global influence and strategic communications agency. We bring politics, creativity and digital together to shift what audiences think and do, for governments, campaigns and brands around the world.
We're not a PR firm, an ad agency or a management consultancy. We're built for one thing: influence. We combine strategic clarity, bold creativity and digital firepower to shift opinion and drive behaviour change, and our campaigns cut through when it matters most: at the ballot box, in the boardroom, and beyond.
We were born digital and built for results. Politics taught us how to unlock the potential of digital and craft content that wins, and we bring those same skills to every client we work with. Our vision is to leave a mark on the world with brilliant creativity. Our mission is simpler: work that gets results.
We're deliberately small and senior, and we hire for fit as much as for craft. Anything is possible when you combine bold thinking and a winning team.
What we do
- Campaign strategy
- Creative content
- Media and distribution
- Web design and build
What we believe
- Fortune favours the bold
- Outcomes beat awards
- Different works
- Work is play
- Best can be better
