Reporting to the Creative Director, this role sits at the intersection of brand and production, pairing strong storytelling instincts with production speed and a willingness to test and iterate.

• A strong understanding of brand marketing principles, what drives consumer purchase behavior, and how to translate that into compelling, customer-centric video content.
• You’re well-versed with Adobe Premiere (or similar), and basic familiarity with After Effects or CapCut a plus.
• You possess strong storytelling instincts for punchy hooks and clear CTAs that improve video engagement metrics such as hook rates and video view retention rates.

• Experience creating videos for Facebook, Instagram Reels, TikTok, or YouTube/Shorts with measurable business impact.
