Who we are looking for
This is for you if
There is no qualification for this and no minimum age. We want somebody who already makes content and puts it out, who can look at a room full of people and see the three things worth filming, and who would rather be told plainly that a clip did not land than be left guessing. You will be among paying guests at somebody else's event, so the trait that matters most is being easy to have there.
- You make content and you publish it. We would rather see thirty seconds you posted than read a word about yourself, and it does not matter what it was about.
- You can write. Not beautifully, quickly and with a point. The first line is half of every piece you will make here.
- You can get to a venue near Birmingham for a full day and start early. There is no version of this done from a laptop at home.
The work itself
What you will actually do
This is the whole job from the first event. There is no trial period on something artificial, because an event happens once and either you got it or nobody did. You arrive with a written brief naming what we need and who it is for, you are told which part of the room is yours, and somebody senior looks at your first hour of footage on the day rather than a fortnight later.
- Turn up with a written brief and work out, before the doors open, what the three things worth saying about this room are
- Collect the evidence for them on a phone: reactions, arguments at the break, a face changing when a number lands, the quiet bits
- Write down the lines people say, because half of a good piece is an overheard sentence used over a shot of something else
- Write the hook and the caption for every piece, in the brand's voice and not your own
- Turn one day into eight short pieces, a set of stories and a fortnight of captions, then hand it over labelled so somebody can find it in a month
What you take away
What you will learn
These transfer to any brand, agency or events company you work for afterwards. Content creation at live events is a specific craft that almost nobody is taught, because the people holding cameras at events were trained for broadcast and brochures. A handful of event days teaches it faster than a year of making content nobody measures.
- How to walk into a room and find the story in it, which is the difference between content and footage and the reason most event film goes unwatched
- How to write a first line that makes somebody who was not going to care, care, in about a second and a half, and how to tell quickly which of yours are bad
- How to get a month of content out of a day, which is the skill that keeps a creator being called back rather than booked once
Tools you will use
- Your own phone, which is the point
- A notes app, used all day, for the lines people say
- CapCut or Premiere for the cut
- A written content brief for every event
- The numbers back, on everything you write
The detail
What the job is really like
Read this bit first: you have to be in the room
Every other internship on this site is remote and open worldwide. This one is the opposite, and there is no soft version of that. A live event happens once, in one place, on one day, and the content from it either exists because somebody was standing there or it does not exist at all.
So the first question is not whether you can edit. It is whether you can get to a venue near Birmingham for a full day, starting early, a couple of days a month. If the answer is no, one of our remote roles is a better fit and nobody will think less of you for saying so.
The job is the story, not the footage
There is already a professional crew at these events with real cameras and real lighting, and the film they hand over is genuinely good. It is also unusable on social, and the reason is not the picture quality. It is that nobody in the room was thinking about what the content was going to say.
Content is an argument. A clip travels because it makes a point somebody wants to pass on, or answers a question they were already carrying around, or shows them a version of themselves. Footage is raw material for that and nothing more. A content creator walks into a room already holding three or four things worth saying, and spends the day collecting the evidence for them.
That is why this is a content role and not a camera role. You will hold a phone all day, but the part we are hiring for is the part that happens before you press record and after you stop: deciding what this room is actually about, and finding the thirty seconds that prove it.
What you are looking for all day
The speaker is on stage saying the thing the event exists to say, and that is the least useful footage in the building. Everyone films it. Nobody watches it.
What you are looking for is the reaction to it. Someone writing so fast they miss the next sentence. A face changing when a number lands. The argument two people have at the coffee break because one of them disagrees. A room going quiet. The person who came alone and now cannot get out of a conversation. Those are stories, and a story is the only thing that gets shared.
You are also listening. Half of what makes a good piece of content at an event is a sentence you overheard, used as the caption over a shot of something else entirely. You will get into the habit of writing lines down during the day, because you will not remember them by the evening and the good ones never come back.
Writing the words
Every piece you make goes out with words on it and words under it, and you write both. A strong thirty seconds with a weak first line gets scrolled past, and this is where most people who are good with a camera fall down.
The first line has a specific job: make somebody who was not going to care, care, in about a second and a half. It is not a summary and it is not a title. It is closer to the first line of a joke, in that it sets up something the rest has to pay off. You will write a lot of them, most will be bad, and you will get quick at telling which is which because the numbers come back within a day.
Captions do the other half of the work. They carry the point the clip only implies, they give somebody a reason to comment, and on a business audience they are often what actually gets read. You will write in the brand’s voice rather than your own, which is a switch worth learning early because it is the skill that makes a writer employable anywhere.
One day, a month of content
The value in this role is not the day, it is what the day becomes. Handled properly a single event is eight short pieces, a set of stories, a carousel and a fortnight of captions. Handled badly it is one clip and an apology.
The difference is a plan you brought with you. You will arrive with a written brief naming who the content is for and what it needs to say, and you will work backwards from that: these are the pieces I need, so these are the shots and the lines that make them. Filming without that is how people come home with four hours of nothing.
You will also learn what almost nobody teaches, which is how to find more in material that looks used up. Companies nearly always have less than they think, and the person who can get a month out of what everyone else got a day out of is the person who keeps getting called.
Working a room you are a guest in
These are paying guests at somebody else’s event and the day belongs to them. You move between things rather than during them, you never block a view, and you never make a person self conscious about being filmed.
Being easy to have in the room is not a soft skill here. Event teams are cautious about who they let near their guests, and the reason most of them will not hire a content creator is a bad experience with one who behaved like the event was a shoot. Get this right and you will be asked back for every event they run.
If there are three of you working, each has a different remit rather than the same one. One on the room, one on the people, one on the detail. Three angles on the same hour beats three people crowding the same shot, and it is more enjoyable than working alone.
What you leave with
Paid, published content from real events, with the numbers attached. Most people building a portfolio in this field are doing favours for friends and guessing whether any of it worked. You will have days you were booked and paid for, and a figure next to every piece.
You will also have the habits that make you employable at any events company, agency or brand: arriving with a plan, writing the line that makes a clip land, working a live room without disturbing it, and handing over files another person can actually use. The Agency has built 300+ AI systems for businesses whose customers are watching, so the feedback here is a number rather than an opinion.
Where the events are
Near Birmingham, at a hotel and conference venue in the West Midlands. They are not studios. The day usually starts before most people are awake and finishes when the room empties, so this works best for somebody in or around Birmingham, Solihull, Coventry or Wolverhampton, or anywhere with a direct line into the city.
You do not have to live next to the venue. You have to get there for the start and stay for the whole thing. Tell us the town you would travel from and we will be straight with you about whether the day works from there, because three hours each way for a single day does not, and we would rather say so than waste your morning.
How to apply
Use the form on this page and pick this role. Link one thing you have made. It does not need to be an event, it does not need to be for a brand, and it certainly does not need to be polished.
Then write a paragraph telling us what you would film at a business event that a professional crew would miss, and why. That paragraph is the part we read most closely, because it is the whole job in one answer. Name the town you would travel from as well, so we know which events to call you for.
Applying
Six fields, then it is with us
No CV template, no covering letter, no application theatre. A person reads every one.
Questions people ask about the Event Content Creator Intern role
Is this remote?
No. This role is worked in the room, at the venue, on the day, and there is no remote version of it. Our other internships are fully remote and open worldwide, so if that is what you were after, look at AI agent builder, AI automation developer, AI SEO and content, AI sales, AI operations, client success or graphic design instead.
How much do content creator jobs at events in Birmingham pay?
Paid content creator jobs at our Birmingham events pay around 150 pounds for the day, agreed with you before you commit to an event. It is paid per day rather than as a salary, because the events are a couple of days a month and neither of us gains from you sitting around between them.
Where are the events?
At a hotel and conference venue near Birmingham, in the West Midlands. You need to get there for a full day and start early, so it suits somebody in or around Birmingham, Solihull, Coventry or Wolverhampton, or anywhere with a direct line into the city. We are not asking you to move.
Is this a writing job or a filming job?
Both, and the writing is the half people underestimate. You film on a phone all day, then write the hook and the caption for every piece that comes out of it. If you only want to hold a camera, our sister brand GOSO runs an event videographer role that is the camera half of the same room.
How many days a month is this?
A couple, sometimes fewer, known well in advance. It is deliberately not full time. It suits somebody at college, somebody freelancing, or somebody with weekday work who wants real paid days and published work with numbers on it.
Do I need a proper camera, or a big following?
Neither. A phone gets angles a rig cannot and does not make the person in front of it self conscious, so we would rather you did not bring a rig. Your own following tells us almost nothing, because growing your own account and making content for a brand are genuinely different skills and we are hiring for the second.
Is there a job at the end?
Not a salaried one, and we will not pretend otherwise. There is a place on the roster we call for the rest of the year, and the paid, published, measured work that comes with it. People who are good at the first event get called for every one after it.
Think you would be good at this?
We would rather see one real thing you made than a perfect CV. Send it over with a paragraph about what broke and how you worked it out.
