We have an exciting opportunity for a talented Digital TV Producer to join our expanding company in our Marble Arch office, (currently working remotely), working with the Superdrug team.
Background to the account
The River Group are excited to announce a brand new addition to our Superdrug content family -Superdrug TV. A weekly YouTube show packed full of beauty, health and relationship advice plus top tier celebrities and influencers.
Hosted by TV and radio host Daisy Maskell, it's a fast-paced, magazine style show showcasing the people, products and events of the week. From the newest skincare drops to behind the scenes on celebrity shoots, it's exclusive and exciting.
For Superdrug and The River Group 2020 has, against the backdrop of a challenging retail landscape, been their most collaborative yet and one that has seen great results and ROI for the brand. Marking the 18th anniversary of the partnership, 2020 has also been the year that River won Superdrug's Marketing Agency of the year and that River aided Superdrug in the monumental achievement of reaching one million Instagram followers.
The launch of Superdrug TV is a testament to the talent of the team involved and the growth of the agency. The pilot episode aired on 17th November - https://l.superdrug.tv/river-pilot - and from the beginning of January, the episodes will be airing weekly.
