Job Description

This Opportunity in One Sentence

If you're a natural storyteller with a camera in your hand and know how to make people feel something in under 15 seconds -- this is the job you've been waiting for

This Opportunity in One Minute

We're looking for a video-first content creator who's obsessed with storytelling, rhythm, emotion, and the ever-shifting tides of social media.

You'll create high-quality, short-form video content for TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube -- helping to shape the voice and visual presence of our portfolio of start-ups.

This role is perfect for someone who's already creating content on their own, but wants the chance to go bigger, faster, and be part of something ambitious. You'll have creative freedom, tight feedback loops, and the chance to help build brands from scratch.

About The Role

You'll be hands-on with every part of the content process -- scripting, filming, editing, sound, storytelling, and publishing.

Your content might promote a brand, build an audience, share a founder's journey, or test a new idea. The common thread? It makes people feel something.

We don't want churned-out corporate fluff. We want bold, well-paced, emotional, story-first content that people can't stop watching.

We'll send more details after you apply. For now, here's a bit about us...

Who We Are

We are Memories Not Dreams - a privately owned investment company based in Christchurch. We have a record of building multiple 10million+ startups from scratch across the last fifteen years.

At the moment our key investments are in Careers, Digital Marketing, Mergers / Acquisitions, M&A Brokerage and Property.

We work fast, work smart and fail quickly to make big things happen with small teams of people, who are quickly rewarded if they can achieve success for us. (It's worth noting that in the past, people who have started in roles like this one have gone on to be shareholders of multi-million companies).

Who You Are

You're a creative machine. You think in scenes, sequences, and stories. You notice pacing, transitions, and lighting -- and have a gut instinct for what makes a video work.

You understand the difference between platform-native and repurposed. You know why TikTok content doesn't belong on LinkedIn, and how to tell a story that grabs people from second 1.

You might come from an agency, a personal brand, or your own side hustle -- either way, you've shipped real content and want to go bigger.

Bonus if you're confident using tools like CapCut, Final Cut, Adobe Premiere, Notion or Descript -- but mindset matters more than software.

If you've got a reel or short video you're proud of -- send it through. We'd love to see your work.
