Working Days: Monday to Friday, 5 Days Per Week

Total Hours: 25 Hours Per Week

ABOUT THE ROLE

AP Media is a growing digital marketing and content production agency working with businesses across various industries.

We are looking for a talented, creative and highly motivated Video Editor to join our growing team.

This role focuses on editing high-quality, engaging short-form video content for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and other digital platforms.

We are not looking for someone who simply cuts footage, follows instructions or relies on pre-made video templates.

We want a creative thinker who understands social media trends, has a strong eye for detail and can bring fresh ideas, original editing techniques and creative concepts to the table.

You will work with raw footage supplied by AP Media and transform it into professional, engaging videos designed to capture attention, strengthen brand identity and maximise audience engagement.

All videos must be edited manually from scratch. We do not use TikTok templates, CapCut templates or pre-made video editing templates for client projects.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

1. VIDEO EDITING & POST-PRODUCTION

- Edit high-quality Instagram Reels, ---------- videos and Facebook content
- Transform raw footage into engaging, professionally edited videos
- Create attention-grabbing hooks within the first few seconds
- Manually create cuts, transitions, effects, animations and motion graphics

- No pre-made video editing templates
- No simply replacing footage in an existing template
- All transitions, cuts, effects and storytelling sequences must be created and customised by the editor
- Every video should be tailored to the client's brand, audience and objectives
- Editors must demonstrate genuine editing ability rather than relying on automated template-based workflows

AI tools may be used to assist with creative effects, enhancements and production efficiency, but they must not replace original editing and creative decision-making.

We want editors who create content, not editors who simply fill in templates.

3. CREATIVE IDEAS & CONTENT INNOVATION

- Research viral hooks and storytelling formats
- Recommend content concepts relevant to each client's industry
- Stay updated with platform changes and short-form video best practices
- Share creative references and examples with the AP Media team
- Recommend improvements to existing video content based on audience engagement trends

6. QUALITY CONTROL & DELIVERY
