Lead Motion Content Creator
About Kendra Scott We are a fashion-lifestyle brand of big dreams, colorful confidence, and inspired design. Founded on Family, Fashion and Philanthropy, we believe that our employees and customers are the heart and soul of our brand, and that giving back is the truest form of success. Fashion meets innovation in the design of our two state-of-the-art facilities based in the heart of Austin, Texas, and overflows into the design of our growing retail environment across the country. Position Overview Kendra Scott is investing in building elevated, social-first motion content in-house — and this role will help lead that evolution. We are seeking a Lead Motion Content Creator who understands that culture lives in video. This is not a traditional videographer role focused solely on long-form storytelling. This is a social-first, concept-to-execution position for a highly creative, fast-moving content creator who can capture product and people with energy, polish, and cultural relevance. Reporting into Creative with a dotted line to Social Leadership, this role will both respond to strategic briefs and proactively contribute ideas — working in close partnership with Creative and Social teams to bring brand moments to life at speed. This is a collaborative role. You will help shape ideas, not operate independently of direction.
