ROLE OVERVIEW
- Edit fast, thumb-stopping content for a men's skincare brand building its entire social presence from scratch
- You'll be editing Reels, founder videos, raw footage clips, and D2C-style ad edits — content that needs to feel native to
Instagram, not polished into oblivion
- Starting as a freelancer with a clear path to full time as volume and output scale with the brand
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Edit Reels and short-form video content — fast cuts, solid hooks, captions, sound design, and meme-style formats where relevant
- Work on founder-led content — talking head videos, POV formats, behind-the-scenes edits that feel authentic and retain attention
- Edit raw footage clips from trial participants and influencers into usable brand assets
- Create D2C ad-style video edits optimised for performance — clear hooks, problem-solution structure, strong CTAs
- Add captions, subtitles, and on-screen text that are on-brand and readable across mobile formats
- Make changes on edits within the day — this is a high-frequency content environment with daily output expectations
- Collaborate closely with the content creator and founding team to stay aligned on brief, tone, and format
- Maintain an organised asset library of raw footage, edited files, and versioned cuts
REQUIREMENTS
- 1–3 years of video editing experience, with a portfolio that includes short-form social content
- Fluent in Premiere Pro, Final Cut, CapCut, or equivalent — fast turnaround is non-negotiable
- Strong understanding of what makes a Reel hook, retain, and convert — you watch and study content, not just edit it
- Knows the difference between founder-led, UGC, meme-cut, and ad-style content — and can execute all four
- Comfortable with captions, motion text, and basic colour grading for a clean, consistent look
- Mumbai-based only — in-person availability for shoot days and same-day turnarounds is essential
- Reliable, responsive, and able to manage multiple briefs simultaneously without dropping quality
- Expected to actively use AI video and generation tools — including Kling, Higgsfield, and other relevant platforms — as part of the daily workflow
NICE-TO-HAVES
- Experience editing content for D2C, skincare, beauty, or lifestyle brands
- Familiarity with what works on Instagram specifically — not just generic video editing experience
- Basic motion graphics or After Effects skills for text animations and transitions
- Has edited influencer or creator content before — understands how to work with raw footage
- Graphic design ability (static posts, banners, ad creatives) — strong portfolio could mean taking on both video and design output
WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON AT TOF
- TOF is pre-launch — you'll be editing the content that introduces the brand to the world for the first time
- High creative ownership — you won't be executing someone else's rigid template, you'll help define the edit language of the brand
- Direct collaboration with the founding team and content creator in a rapid, feedback-driven environment
- Note: if your portfolio includes strong static design work — product visuals, packaging edits, PR box creatives, marketplace banners, ad statics — there is potential to take on graphic design output as well To Apply: Send us your Instagram handle and portfolio, and we'll connect over a call. | Contact:
