JOB OVERVIEW

We’re a London-based creative agency looking for a freelance video editor to support regular short-form editing (reels, TikToks, shorts), with occasional long-form projects.

You’ll be editing across multiple clients in lifestyle, fitness, ecommerce, and social media, so we need someone who’s comfortable switching between styles and following briefs closely.

ROLE FORMAT
- Paid per reel, with rates depending on experience
- Freelance/contract to start, paid per reel (rates based on experience)
- Goal is to bring the right person on full-time - in which case we'd need 10AM-2PM UK time availability for core overlap

RESPONSIBILITIES
- Edit short-form video content regularly, with occasional long-form edits when needed
- Work across multiple client styles while keeping pacing, structure, and polish consistent
- Apply colour correction / grading to maintain a clean, consistent look
- Add subtle motion design when it supports the edit (text, simple transitions, emphasis)
- Work confidently in Premiere Pro and After Effects
- Follow briefs closely and deliver assets on time
- Manage revisions, versions, and exports without hand-holding

REQUIREMENTS
- Proficient in Premiere Pro and After Effects
- Strong understanding of spoken and written English (briefs, feedback, and context matter)
- High attention to detail (captions, timing, audio levels, formatting, safe zones, exports)
- Reliable turnaround and communication
- Portfolio showing relevant short-form work


HOW TO APPLY?
Please send a portfolio of recent work (short-form preferred)
