Filmmaker (Full Time)

Who We Are

We are all about impact. Impact on people,culture,brands and the world around us.

That’s what gets us up every day. Working with governments and brands to make a real impact. To tell stories that matter. To design experiences that move people. To solve challenges that shape the future.

Whether it’s uncovering a brand’s deeper purpose, rethinking the way a message connects with its audience, or building ideas that spark conversations, when people work with Wherefore they get a team of Impact Makers. If the work does not create a meaningful impact, then it’s not Wherefore.

What We Do

We may be a creative company, but we are not in the business of churning out content. We are in the business of making impact happen.

We obsess over the human experience. What people care about. What drives them and what brings them together. We turn those insights into creative solutions that go beyond execution, bridging strategy and craft to deliver results that last.

Our work spans:‍

- Branding and Design
- Film and Photography
- Social Media Strategy
- Campaigns and Storytelling
- Experiential and Interactive

Every project is different. The outcome is always the same: work that makes an impact.

Culture

Working at Wherefore means joining a team that believes in doing more than good work. We want work that matters. Work that challenges, connects, and inspires.

It is a way of life here. We push each other to think deeper, to execute smarter, and to always ask why. We value being intentional, resourceful, and collaborative. We respect life outside of work because the best ideas come when people are energised, not burnt out.

At our core, we are not looking for money-hungry creatives. We are looking for motivated Impact Makers who want to create impact through their craft.
