About Kimon
Kimon is a UK company with a delivery team in India. We run two things side by side.
Kimon Services is the business that pays the bills. We build and run managed teams for UK clients, handle Employer of Record work, and increasingly wrap AI and automation around client operations.
The Kimon platforms are eight B2B SaaS products, all built in house:
- Kimon Bids, bid and tender management. Live, with paying customers.
- Kimon Recruit, applicant tracking with AI generated skills testing.
- Kimon Projects, project management for SMEs.
- Kimon Time, time tracking and workforce analytics.
- Kimon Comply, compliance management across 14 domains.
- Kimon Desk, AI native helpdesk.
- Kimon Teams, pre built AI agents with enforced human quality control.
- Kimon Send, low cost email marketing on the customer's own Amazon SES.
We are building a short form video engine as our main organic channel. This is the seat that produces the videos.
The role
We publish 100 shorts a week, each 30 to 40 seconds, cut from long-form recordings: founder talks, product walkthroughs, client conversations, webinars and podcasts.
That is roughly 20 finished videos a working day. Nobody hits that number by editing each one from scratch. You hit it by building templates, presets, keyboard-driven workflows and AI tooling, then feeding raw footage through them. If your instinct on reading that number is "I need a system", you are the person we want. If your instinct is "that is impossible", this is not the job.
You will work directly with a Growth Marketer who tells you which hooks, topics, and formats are winning, and with the person recording the source footage. You cut, they publish, the data comes back, you both adjust.
What you'll own
- Footage assembly. Organising hours of raw video, syncing multi-camera angles, and aligning separate audio tracks.
- Pacing and storytelling. Cutting out mistakes, awkward pauses and dead air so every second earns its place. In a 30-second video, there is nowhere to hide.
- Visual enhancements. Text overlays, captions, lower thirds, transitions and basic effects, all on brand and all consistent across 100 videos a week.
- Audio mixing. Cleaning background hiss, balancing voice levels, and mixing in sound effects or music beds.
- Exporting and formatting. Rendering to the exact specs each platform needs: vertical 9:16 for Shorts, Reels and TikTok, plus horizontal and square cuts for YouTube and LinkedIn.
- The production system. Templates, presets, naming conventions, folder structure, asset library, and a delivery pipeline that does not fall over when volume increases.
- AI leverage. Auto transcription, auto captioning, silence removal, auto reframing and batch export. We build with AI, and we expect editing to run the same way.
What success looks like First 30 days
- The production system is built: project templates, caption styles, lower third templates, export presets and a shared asset library.
- First full week of 100 videos delivered on schedule.
First 90 days
- 100 videos a week delivered consistently, on time, with no drop in quality.
- Turnaround from raw footage to published cut inside 48 hours.
- A documented workflow another editor could pick up in a week.
- Rework rate low enough that the Growth Marketer is not sending videos back.
First 12 months
- A short-form library of over 4,000 videos that fed real audience and pipeline growth.
- Best-performing formats identified and turned into reusable templates.
- Enough of the process automated that volume can rise without a second editor.
Who you are
- 3 or more years editing short-form video, with a portfolio of vertical content that has actually been published.
- Rapid and organised about it. You can show us how you get through volume without cutting corners.
- Has access to Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut, plus After Effects or equivalent for motion graphics.
- You understand retention. You know what makes someone stop scrolling in the first two seconds and what makes them leave at second nine.
- Comfortable with English language content in a British register. You need to hear where a sentence ends and where a joke lands, so you can cut on it.
- AI native. You already use AI tools daily to multiply your own output.
- Happy taking direction from data. When the Growth Marketer says a format is dying, you change it without defending it.
Nice to have
- Experience producing content for a B2B or SaaS audience.
- Sound design or music editing beyond the basics.
- Basic motion graphics and animated explainers.
- Thumbnail and still design.
- Scripting from long-form transcripts.
What we offer
- A high-volume seat with real reach. Your work is the front door to the company for most people who meet us.
- Fully remote, working from anywhere in India.
- Direct feedback loop. You will see exactly how each video performed, every week.
- A path to lead the function. We are raising growth funding. Video production scales materially once it lands, and the person who built the system leads the team we build with it.
