Fathercraft
We want to change the perceptions of male caring and fatherhood and support more partners to get involved because it creates value for everyone.
Supporting men to be equal and active parents from the start is key for gender equality. Research from Sweden suggests that every additional month of paternity leave taken by fathers increases the mother’s lifetime earnings by 6.7% (Johansson, 2010).
80% of the gender pay gap is attributed to the motherhood penalty (World Economic Forum, 2022)
The gender pay gap more than doubles for women over 40 (ONS, 2022)
Yet despite increasing willingness and interest in taking an active parenting role, in 2022, dads spent, on average, just 55 minutes per day with their children (ONS, 2023).
This is largely due to the fact that one in three working dads don’t feel comfortable talking to their employer about family commitments and/or are not adequately supported to be the best dads and partners they can be.
We have developed an affordable, comprehensive online platform called "Father's Ed" that provides guidance, support, wellbeing services and a community for new or expectant fathers. This includes peer support between dads, science-based online, digital well-being courses covering a range of strange and anxiety triggers, e. g. financial well-being, loneliness, insomnia, etc.). We are also working on providing mental health services for new fathers through partnerships.

Volunteer Role Description (remote, unpaid)
Craft stories that change perceptions. One frame at a time.
About Fathercraft UK
At Fathercraft UK, we believe dads matter - right from day one. Through Father’s Ed, our flagship learning platform, and a range of digital tools and content, we empower expectant and new fathers to take an active, confident role in family life. Our mission is simple but transformative: to shift the narrative on male caregiving and create a world where every father is supported to parent out loud.
⸻
The Opportunity
We’re looking for a volunteer Video Editor with experience using Pictory to help us transform written and spoken content into engaging short-form videos for social platforms and our e-learning ecosystem.
You’ll take the lead in crafting high-impact visual narratives—turning blog articles, scripts, and voiceovers into snackable, scroll-stopping videos that educate, inspire, and provoke thought. This is a fully remote, part-time opportunity ideal for someone who wants to build their portfolio while contributing to a purpose-driven cause.
⸻
What You’ll Do • Use Pictory’s Script-to-Video and Article-to-Video workflows to create engaging short videos. • Add visuals, music, voiceovers, and text overlays using Pictory’s built-in editing tools. • Edit and optimise videos for key platforms: Instagram Reels, LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts. • Repurpose long-form content into multiple short-form outputs, matched to platform-specific specs. • Collaborate with our content and social teams to ensure narrative clarity and brand consistency. • Ensure all assets are optimised for mobile-first consumption and accessibility.
⸻
You Should Have • Hands-on experience using Pictory, particularly Script-to-Video, Article-to-Video, and Text-to-Video features. • A solid understanding of pacing, visual storytelling, and sound design. • Familiarity with video optimisation for social media platforms (duration, dimensions, captions, etc.). • A strong creative instinct with attention to tone, rhythm, and emotional impact. • Ability to follow a brief while suggesting creative enhancements. • Experience with voiceovers, stock visuals, or subtitle editing is a plus.
⸻
What You’ll Gain • Experience working with a live audience and a fast-growing mission-led brand. • A portfolio of purpose-driven video content featured across multiple platforms. • The chance to make a meaningful impact through visual storytelling. • Full credit and recognition for your work across our channels. • Remote flexibility and creative autonomy.
