• Partner with designers, copywriters, and strategists to ensure alignment with brand and campaign objectives.
• Manage multiple projects with fast turnaround times while maintaining strict adherence to brand standards and evolving platform best practices.
• Analyze creative performance and use data, testing, and learnings to continuously improve future ads.

Who You Are

• Bachelor's degree in Media, Film, Communications, or a related field (preferred).
• 2–4 years of video editing experience in fast-paced environments such as agency, DTC, or E-Commerce.
• Advanced skills in editing tools including Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Final Cut Pro, or equivalent platforms.
• Exposure to AI-driven video tools such as Runway ML or similar platforms to enhance creative production and efficiency.
• Strong understanding of content formats and performance dynamics across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Meta.
• Ability to edit with a focus on storytelling and marketing outcomes, including CTR, engagement, conversion, and ROAS.
• Experience in motion graphics, basic animation, sound design, and a strong portfolio demonstrating high-quality, high-performing content.
• Skilled storyteller with a sharp eye for detail and a strong understanding of current creative trends.
• Able to thrive under tight deadlines in a high-growth environment.
• Team-oriented yet independent, with a data-driven mindset and a desire to test, optimize, and improve creative performance.
