- Turn around edits quickly while maintaining a high standard of quality.
- Create basic motion graphics, including end cards, lower thirds, text animations, and simple animated elements.
- Apply colour grading and audio mixing where required to elevate the final edit.
- Collaborate with the creative team to ensure edits align with brand tone and platform best practice.
- Manage multiple projects and deadlines across a 3-day working week.
- Organise and prioritise workload independently within a fast-paced, high-volume workflow.
- Occasionally work on longer-form video content where required.
Requirements
- Proven experience editing video content for social media platforms, particularly Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
- A strong portfolio demonstrating high-quality short-form social video editing.
- Experience working across varied content styles, from corporate and talking-head content to lifestyle, interiors, and visually driven brand content.
- Ability to work quickly and efficiently while maintaining high standards.
- Basic motion graphics skills, including lower thirds, end cards, and simple animated elements.
- Working knowledge of colour grading and audio mixing.
- Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or DaVinci Resolve is required.
- After Effects experience is advantageous.
- Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines independently.
- Ability to work reliably during agreed UK working hours, with flexibility of up to one hour either side.
- Flexibility to work different 3-day schedules depending on upcoming content requirements.
- Previous experience working in a fast-paced agency or high-volume content environment is advantageous.
- CapCut-only editors will not be considered.
