Role & responsibilities

You will be our video editor for client brands and our own channels. That covers short-form video (Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, social media ads) and long-form video (YouTube videos, podcasts, interviews, brand films). You take raw footage and a brief and turn them into something people watch to the end, and you own the edit from the first cut to the final export.

You need to know Premiere Pro and After Effects well, but we hire for judgment. We expect you to know why a video loses viewers at the 4-second mark, which shot should open it, and what to cut, and to be able to explain those calls when someone pushes back.

What you will do:

- Edit Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and social media ads with a strong hook, tight pacing, and subtitles that work with the sound off.
- Edit long-form YouTube videos, podcasts, interviews and brand films so the structure holds from the first minute to the last.
- Use visual storytelling to build the story from raw footage: pick the moments, shape the arc, and cut for clarity and emotion.
- Create motion graphics, text animation, titles and lower thirds in Adobe After Effects.
- Use AI video generation (text-to-video and image-to-video) to create B-roll, shots and motion elements, and blend them with live footage so they look intentional.
- Handle color correction and color grading, sound design, audio editing, music selection and voiceover cleanup.
- Turn one shoot into multiple formats and aspect ratios (16:9, 9:16, 1:1) for Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and LinkedIn.
- Take feedback from the content, design and client teams,



and turn revisions around quickly without losing the idea of the edit.

What we need:

- 1-2 years of professional video editing experience at a digital marketing agency, production house or in-house team, or as a freelancer.
- Strong command of Adobe Premiere Pro and Adobe After Effects. You should be fast in both.
- A transparent sense of storytelling: pacing, structure, rhythm, and how retention works on Reels and Shorts.
- A portfolio or showreel with both short-form and long-form work. We will judge you on this more than on your CV.
- Hands-on experience with AI video tools such as Runway, Kling, Google Veo, Sora, Pika, Luma, Adobe Firefly or HeyGen, and AI tools for captions, voice (ElevenLabs) and upscaling. Good prompting is part of the job. If you built an AI workflow that saves you hours, tell us about it.
- A good eye for typography, colour and composition.
- The ability to run several projects at once and meet deadlines without the quality slipping.

Nice to have

- Photoshop or Illustrator for preparing assets.
- Experience reading YouTube retention graphs and watch-time data and re-editing based on them.
- Experience editing performance ads for Meta (Instagram, Facebook) or YouTube.
- Basic camera and shooting knowledge.

How to apply Send your CV and a portfolio or showreel link with both short-form and long-form work. Add three to five lines on one video you edited: what the raw footage looked like, what story you chose to tell, and the one editing decision that made it work. Applications without a portfolio and that answer will not be read.
