About Sourcefin

Sourcefin is one of South Africa’s fastest-growing alternative funders – on a mission to enable the forgotten SMME.

We unlock working capital for small and growing businesses through intelligent, human-centred technology and funding solutions. But beyond funding, we’re passionate about telling the stories of the entrepreneurs building the real economy.

As our brand grows, we want to capture more of these stories in the real world – from deal deliveries to founder moments, client site visits and behind-the-scenes glimpses of businesses in action.

To support this, we’re building a nationwide network of freelance photographers and videographers we can call on when these moments happen.

If you love capturing authentic business stories and can move quickly when opportunities arise – we’d love to hear from you.

What This Role Is

This is not a full-time role.

We’re building a trusted network of freelance photographers and videographers across South Africa who we can contact when:
• a significant deal closes
• we want to capture a client story
• a founder moment needs documenting
• a site visit is taking place
• or a meaningful business milestone occurs

When these opportunities arise, we’ll reach out to someone in the relevant region to capture photos and video on-site.

Assignments are typically short, focused shoots designed to capture authentic moments and high-quality visual assets for our marketing and storytelling.

What You’ll Do

• Travel to client sites or business locations when requested
• Capture professional photos and video footage of entrepreneurs, teams and business environments
• Document deal deliveries, founder stories and business moments
• Film short interview clips or natural interactions where appropriate
• Capture B-roll of business activity, facilities, products and teams
• Deliver clean, organised raw footage and images to our shared folder shortly after the shoot
• Ensure lighting, framing and sound quality meet professional standards
• Represent Sourcefin professionally when interacting with clients and entrepreneurs

What We’re Looking For

• A skilled photographer and/or videographer with a strong portfolio
• Comfortable capturing both still photography and video content
• Experience shooting corporate, documentary-style or brand storytelling content
• Able to work independently on location
• Own professional camera, lenses and audio equipment
• Comfortable working in a variety of environments (factories, offices, warehouses, etc.)
• Able to move quickly when shoots are scheduled on short notice
• Reliable, professional and easy to work with
• Able to deliver footage and images quickly after a shoot

Ideal But Not Essential

• Experience shooting entrepreneur stories or small business environments
• Basic colour grading or light editing skills
• Experience capturing interview-style content
• Drone capability (where legal and appropriate)

What You’ll Need to Apply

Please share:
• Your portfolio (website, Instagram, or reel)
• Your location / province
• Your equipment setup
• Your rate card (per shoot / hourly / half-day / day rate)
• A short note telling us why this opportunity interests you

Why Work With Sourcefin?

• Meaningful storytelling that supports real South African entrepreneurs
• Opportunities to capture authentic business moments
• Flexible freelance assignments
• Potential for ongoing work as our content strategy grows
• A chance to build your portfolio with high-impact business storytelling
