JOB OVERVIEW

We are seeking a Lead Video Editor to serve as the creative backbone of our agency. You will be responsible for executing our proprietary playbook and currently trending video formats, designed specifically to convert on TikTok Shop and Instagram (eventually Instagram Shop). You are not just making social media posts; you are creating high-end digital commercials that drive affiliate revenue. Part with growth potential to full time.

[RESPONSIBILITIES]

The "Garde" Playbook: Edit high-converting, vertical videos (9:16) designed specifically for the TikTok Shop and Instagram algorithms.

Advanced Typography: Seamlessly integrate sophisticated, magazine-quality text overlays to elevate standard affiliate content.

Color Grading & Pacing: Apply professional color grading to raw product and lifestyle footage to achieve a "Vogue meets journal" aesthetic, while maintaining the fast hook-pacing required for social commerce.

Creative Direction: Help set the visual standard for the agency. When we scale and hire junior editors, your work will be the gold standard they follow.

[RESPONSIBILITIES]

Social Commerce Architecture: Edit high-converting, vertical videos (9:16) for the TikTok Shop Affiliate ecosystem. You must know how to balance a "Native" algorithmic feel with a high-conversion, "shopper" hook.

The "Garde" Playbook: Apply professional color grading and cinematic framing to raw product/lifestyle footage to achieve a luxurious, "Vogue meets journal" aesthetic.

Advanced Typography: Seamlessly integrate sophisticated, magazine-quality text overlays using our brand fonts (Playfair Display, Butler) to elevate standard affiliate content.

Creative Direction: Help set the visual standard for the agency. When we scale and hire junior editors, your work will be the gold standard they follow.

[REQUIREMENTS]

The Software: You must be an expert in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or After Effects. (While these are for TikTok/IG, this role requires desktop-level precision, layering, and grading that mobile apps cannot provide).

The Platform DNA: You deeply understand what works on TikTok Shop and Instagram right now, but you know how to elevate those trends visually so they look expensive.

The Eye: You understand the power of white space, cinematic pacing, and sophisticated design. "Busy," "cheesy," or overly aggressive edits will not work here.

Experience: A proven track record of editing for premium brands, luxury markets, or high-performing e-commerce/affiliate accounts.

[HOW TO APPLY]

Start your application with the word "GARDE" so I know you possess strong attention to detail.

Send a link to your portfolio. I only want to see your best vertical (9:16) work for TikTok or Instagram. Show me 3 examples of cinematic, high-end, or editorial video.

Answer this: How do you balance the need for a fast, attention-grabbing TikTok "hook" with a high-end, luxurious visual aesthetic?
