• Brand consistency: Maintain brand consistency, including our visual style, music licensing compliance, and on-brand graphics and lower thirds, while adapting tone for different platforms and audience segments.
• Trend awareness: Stay current on shortform trends, sounds, and editing styles to proactively suggest formats that drive engagement and follower growth.

• Comfort with quick turnarounds: Steady output of finished videos, including 60-90 second cuts delivered within 24-48 hours of receiving footage.
• Strong collaboration orientation: Ability to communicate clearly and responsively with the social media team, particularly when deadlines are tight or footage arrives close to a posting date.
• Attention to detail: Consistent, accurate execution across captions, graphics, and music licensing compliance.
• Remote-ready: Dependable setup for editing and delivering video from wherever they work.
• AI forward: Familiarity with AI tools such as Perplexity Computer is a plus.
