Head of Content Production

About us

Dyson is a global technology enterprise. We solve the problems others choose to ignore, with surprising new inventions that defy convention and simply work better. Our technology is unique and complex, so it’s up to us to explain it clearly. Working in-house, directly with engineers and the broader business, we create inspirational communications that showcase our technology.

The global marketing team are responsible for taking our amazing technology to market and within this sit our content production teams. Our mission is to bring Dyson technology to life, to provide the imagery, films, content, experiences and service that explain our machines, their benefits and the problems they solve for our Owners. We create stories and journeys that help Owners discover, choose, purchase, learn about and solve issues they may have with our machines. 

We prioritise our campus culture and do not offer a regular hybrid working setup to maintain Dyson's spirit of collaboration, creativity, and inventiveness in our dynamic workspaces.
