Vertical Short Form Video Editor + Creative PA

What You’ll Own Short-Form Vertical Editing (The Core of the Job) This is what you’ll spend most of your time doing. Cut vertical short-form content for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts with fast, same-session turnaround. For every concept, you’ll produce multiple versions - alternate hooks, different opening seconds, variant pacing, A/B cuts - so we can test what lands on each platform. You’ll work directly with the creative lead to develop a shared editing language and style, then execute against it at volume. Expected pace: multiple finished cuts per day, refined in real time as feedback comes in. You should already have strong instincts for what makes vertical content work - pacing, hook structure, captioning, sound design, retention curves - and be eager to sharpen them in a brand environment. Photo Editing & Capture Edit product and lifestyle photos using established looks - applying presets, copy/paste masking, and consistency editing across image sets. Capture supplementary product shots (multiple angles, details) when needed. Assist with lighting setup for photo work. Creative Documentation & Database Build and maintain the systems that keep the creative process repeatable. Document lighting setups, camera settings, edit project structures, and audio configurations. Create reference sheets and templates so the team can pull established looks and edit styles quickly. On-Set Production Assistance When shoots happen, be a reliable second set of hands. Operate cameras and audio equipment, run the audio interface, troubleshoot issues, and help keep the studios clean and ready. This is a smaller part of the role than the editing work, but you should be comfortable on set when you’re needed there. Scheduling & Coordination Keep the creative calendar updated and serve as the liaison between the Creative Lead and other departments. Coordinate product availability for shoots and keep things moving between spaces as needed. You’ll Excel If You Live in Vertical Short-Form You watch a lot of TikTok, Reels, and Shorts - and you watch them like an editor. You can articulate why a hook works, where a cut should land, when to add a caption, and how to keep someone past the three-second drop-off. You stay current on what’s working on each platform and bring those instincts to every cut. You Edit Fast and Iterate Without Ego Same-session turnaround is the norm, not the exception. You take direction well, refine in real time, and don’t get precious about cuts. You can produce ten variants of a reel without losing energy on the eleventh. You don’t need a lot of oversight to produce good work - you just need clear direction. You’re Technically Proficient Premiere Pro and/or DaVinci Resolve at a level where you’re not fighting the tool. CapCut familiarity is a plus. Lightroom or Photoshop for photo work. You know these tools well enough to work efficiently and teach yourself what you don’t know yet. You Build Systems, Not Just Files You’re organized in a way that benefits the whole team - building documentation, project templates, and reference sheets. You think about how to make your work reusable and findable, especially when cutting many versions of the same content. You’re Production-Fluent (Enough) You don’t need to be a DP, but cameras, audio interfaces, and lighting rigs shouldn’t intimidate you. When you’re on set, troubleshoot and don’t wait to be told what to do next. You’re a Strong Communicator You surface problems early, coordinate proactively, and keep people informed without being asked. Small teams move fast - good communication is what makes that work. You’re a Gear Person You don’t need to be a professional musician, but genuine familiarity with guitar and pedals will make this job more natural and more fun. We speak fluent gear here.
