Actor/Actress

Content Creator / UGC Actor & Model - Part-Time, Contracted

Especial Agency · Leicester · Part-time, flexible hours · £12.71 per hour

Especial Agency is a Leicester-based social media marketing agency working with a growing portfolio of food, hospitality and lifestyle brands. We're looking for a confident, camera-natural individual to become the recurring on-camera face across our client content - someone our audiences start to recognise and trust.

What you'll be doing

You'll be the face in front of the camera for short-form video content (Instagram Reels, TikTok) across a range of client brands - think food reveals and reactions, "what I'm wearing/using today" style content, product try-ons, and general lifestyle-driven UGC. Some shoots are fully scripted; others just need your natural personality and reactions on camera. You won't be the same character for every brand - you'll be briefed differently depending on which client we're filming for that day.

What we're looking for

• Comfortable and natural on camera - no acting training required, but you should be able to take direction and deliver a line, a reaction, or a review convincingly
• Reliable and punctual - shoots are scheduled around client opening hours and quiet periods, so timekeeping matters
• Flexible availability - our clients range from daytime hospitality venues to late-evening food spots, so shoot times vary week to week rather than following a fixed shift pattern
• Genuinely comfortable trying different products and cuisines on camera
• Based in or able to travel around Leicester

The details

• Part-time, contracted work - paid per shoot/hour, not a fixed salary
• £20–£30 per hour depending on experience and the client brief
• Shoots are typically booked in advance with notice, not last-minute
• This is a self-employed contractor arrangement - you'll invoice for your hours

How to apply

Send us a short video of yourself talking to camera (30–60 seconds is fine - doesn't need to be polished) along with your general availability during the week. If you've created content before, feel free to include a link to your Instagram or TikTok.

Pay: From £12.71 per hour

Expected hours: 10.0 – 20.0 per week

Work Location: In person
