Harvey Head of Video at Harvey to develop and direct video content for the Content & Social roadmap. Responsible for concept development, creative direction of shoots, and guiding the editor from briefing through delivery.
Responsibilities
Harvey is hiring a Head of Video to develop and direct video for our Content & Social (C&S) roadmap. You’ll bring original ideas, build recurring formats, and turn briefs into stories that work for our audience and channels. You’ll primarily develop concepts, write, creatively direct shoots, and guide the editor, with accountability for the work from briefing through delivery.
You’ll be one of the first two hires in a dedicated C&S creative pod, alongside a Video Editor & Shooter. The pod sits within HCS for creative leadership, craft, and brand standards, while the C&S roadmap determines its workload and priorities. Broader HCS projects are resourced separately.
You’ll work directly with C&S leads every day, from briefing through final review, translating the message, channel, and timing into a clear creative approach. You’ll partner closely with creative producers to bring your vision to life. You’ll retain overall narrative responsibility, guide the editor’s work, and bring together feedback to deliver finished assets that meet the brief and Harvey’s creative standards.
The Work You Will Support
The initial planning mix for the pod includes:
Supporting 1–3 recurring series each month, including executive content.
Covering 2–3 events per month and shaping the resulting footage into content for our channels.
Creating product videos with Content & Social, Product Marketing, and HCS members, including a steady drumbeat of feature videos, explainers, use cases, and demonstrations beyond launch.
Recurring series will generally have longer planning cycles. Event and product launch work often needs a turnaround of one to two weeks. You’ll agree scope and priorities with C&S, accounting for capture, editing, reviews, and available production support.
For product launches, the pod owns the assets on the C&S roadmap. Larger campaign and demo productions remain with the relevant HCS teams; you’ll coordinate messaging, footage, and delivery handoffs so the work connects.
Creative Concepts and Recurring Formats
Proactively pitch social concepts and recurring formats that serve the C&S roadmap. Build a consistent body of work with a clear audience, purpose, and point of view.
Qualification

Preferred
Experience on an in-house content or social team at a growing technology, SaaS, or B2B company.

A network of freelance editors, writers, and production partners, and an interest in AI and the legal industry.
Please share relevant finished social videos and identify your specific contribution, collaborators, and turnaround time for each. Include an example of a recurring format you developed or improved, explaining the changes and what you learned from audience response. Selected scripts, treatments, interview plans, or paper edits should show how your ideas developed into the final work.
