Job Description
Turn what our tutors know into videos students actually want to watch.
n
You will own your project
end to end
:
pre-production, shooting, and editing
. Most days you're filming educational content and pieces to camera, in and on location, then cutting the result into something students actually finish watching.
n
This is a genuinely broad role. You'll
script and plan
,
direct talent
on the day,
operate the camera
, and
edit the final cut
yourself. The Production Coordinator will help handle logistics and scheduling, so you can stay focused on the creative.
n
You're measured first on
whether the work serves and engages the student audience
. Reach and brand outcomes are what follow when that standard is met, not the other way around.
Who we are
n
Contour was founded in **** by students who saw that the quality of your education was basically a lottery. Teachers stretched thin by the system, learning materials that varied from school to school, and support that stopped the moment you left the classroom.
n
We began with 5 students in a room. Today 15,000+ students have trusted Contour as their academic partners, and we've grown to 500+ team members across 10 campuses in Australia. In **** we ranked #8 on the AFR Fast 100 of fastest-growing companies.
n
We've produced hundreds of 99+ ATARs, tutored the world-record UCAT scorer, and placed 850+ students into medical and dental schools across Australia.
n
Contour is made up of three brands:
n
n
Contour Education
→ academic performance in high school
n




Contour MedPrep
→ entry into medical and dental schools
n
Contour TestPrep
→ entry into selective and scholarship schools
n
n
Contour is built by students, for students.
What You Will Do
n
You own video across all three stages of production: pre-production, shooting, and editing.
n
n
Pre-production:
Draft and refine scripts, pitch content ideas, organise talent (with booking support from the Production Coordinator), and plan shot lists and run sheets ahead of each shoot.
n
Directing:
Direct talent and presenters on the day, guide pacing, framing and tone, and make confident calls on the floor to keep the shoot on track.
n
Shooting:
Film on campus and on location, set up and operate camera, lighting and audio gear, and capture clean footage, plus supporting stills and b-roll, to brief.
n
Editing:
Cut in Adobe Premiere Pro to Contour's brand standard, add captions, graphics and colour, manage and archive media, and repurpose long-form pieces into social-first cuts.
n
Collaboration and craft:
Take creative direction from the Video Production Lead, work to briefs and a publishing schedule in Notion,



and stay across current platform trends and specs.
n
What You Will Bring
n
n
A portfolio of content you've both filmed and edited.
n
Confident with DSLR / mirrorless cameras, plus lighting and audio setup.
n
Proficient in Adobe Premiere Pro, with a robust eye for pacing and a clean finish.
n
More than comfortable directing talent and running a piece-to-camera shoot.
n
A sense for what makes content engaging for a student audience.
n
Comfortable writing or co-writing scripts from a brief, without needing everything templated.
n
Speed and nimbleness: quality work, turned around quickly, even when priorities shift.
n
An ownership mentality: you treat your content as yours end to end.
n
Comfort using AI tools to speed up scripting, ideation and edit workflows.
n
A driver's licence and access to a vehicle, to travel to shoots across Contour's campuses.
n
n
Motion graphics or After Effects skills, and your own gear, are a bonus, not a requirement.
Why You Will Love It
n
n
Full ownership:
Every piece is yours end to end, from the idea to the final cut.
n
Reach:
Your work is what thousands of students actually watch and learn from.
n
Craft:
Work alongside the Video Production Lead and the design team, and keep sharpening your camera, directing and editing chops.
n
Reward:
Competitive salary ( + super), plus hybrid flexibility where the shoot allows, EAP access, and lifestyle perks.
