Short-Form Video Editor / Social Media Content Editor

About the Role

We are looking for a fast, social-first video editor to support our growing social media content team.

You will edit short-form videos for platforms such as TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn. This includes talking-head videos, event snippets, founder-led content, campaign cutdowns, testimonials, and other social-first formats.

You should be comfortable working with quick turnarounds, platform-native editing styles, subtitles, text overlays, music, sound effects, and simple motion graphics.

This role is best suited for someone who understands that social media editing is not just about making videos look nice — it is about holding attention, improving clarity, and helping content perform.

Responsibilities

• Edit short-form videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn.
• Create multiple cutdowns from raw footage.
• Add subtitles, hooks, text overlays, sound effects, music, transitions, and simple graphics.
• Adapt videos into different aspect ratios and formats.
• Work from briefs provided by the social media team.
• Suggest improvements to pacing, hooks, structure, and visual flow.
• Manage revisions efficiently.
• Maintain organised project files and footage folders.
• Support simple thumbnail or cover frame creation where needed.

Requirements

• Fresh grads are welcomed, as long as have strong portfolio.
• Strong understanding of TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and social video pacing.
• Proficient in CapCut, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or similar editing tools.
• Able to edit quickly without sacrificing clarity.
• Good sense of rhythm, captions, hooks, and viewer retention.
• Comfortable working in a lean, fast-moving team.
• Portfolio of short-form social videos required.
