Working with us

Use your superpowers to WOW our community

Like the characters in The Wizard of Oz or Toy Story, all the best businesses succeed when they have the right people working together. 

Especially when they each bring unique ideas, skills and perspectives to the table. Which is why diversity and inclusion are core parts of our culture and we pride ourselves on our equal split of female and male team makeup.

You might be surprised to learn that despite having a global reach, we’re only a team of just over 20 (but growing). Based in a fun and vibrant co-working space in central Bristol that happens to be opposite an irresistible coffee shop - don’t say we didn’t warn you!

About Sparkol

At Sparkol, we believe there’s a brilliant storyteller in everyone but sometimes you just need a little help unlocking your superpower. We were born out of the simple belief that everyone should be able to share their stories quickly, easily and affordably (without any special skills). 

We started by creating our now-flagship VideoScribe... and didn’t stop there. With our continually growing suite of software and professional services, think of us as the sustainable, ever-growing bamboo.

Say goodbye to glaze-face and hello to wide-eyed!
