About the Role
We’re looking for a Content Storyteller who can turn raw footage, ideas, and everyday moments into compelling stories.
This is not just a video editing role. We’re looking for someone who understands why a story works — someone who can take a collection of clips and shape them into content that has a clear narrative, emotion, pacing, and purpose.
You should be able to look beyond “cutting clips together” and think: What is the story we’re trying to tell? What should the audience feel? What should they remember?
What You'll Do:
1) Build the Brand's Narrative:
- Understand the brand’s personality, audience, products and ambitions.
- Define what the brand stands for and what it should be known for.
- Identify stories, themes, characters, situations and cultural conversations the brand can own.
- Build an evolving storytelling universe around the brand.
- Think beyond individual posts and develop a long-term social narrative.
2) Think Video:
- Develop concepts specifically for short-form social video.
- Create ideas for Reels, short films, series, recurring formats, product stories, founder stories, BTS and culture-led content.
- Think through the hook, story, visual treatment, pacing and payoff of every video.
- Turn simple products, situations and observations into engaging stories.
- Understand what makes people stop scrolling and keep watching.
- Create content that feels native to Instagram rather than traditional advertising.
3) Create Recurring Content Formats:
- Develop recurring video series and repeatable content formats.
- Create characters, situations and storytelling devices that can evolve over time.
- Build content pillars with a distinct personality.
- Develop formats that can grow over months rather than disappear after one post.
- Help establish a recognisable content language for the brand’s social presence.
4) Translate Ideas Into Shootable Content:
- Visualise the complete video before it is produced.
- Clearly define: What happens? Who is involved? What is the opening shot? What is the hook? What is the mood? What does the camera see? What is the dialogue/VO? How does the story progress? What is the payoff? Why would someone share or remember it?
- Work closely with videographers, editors, creators and production partners to bring concepts to life.
5) Develop Brand's Social Personality
- Shape how the brand behaves and communicates on social media.
- Develop a distinctive tone, attitude and personality through video.
- Stay updated on internet culture, trends, humour and emerging formats.
- Identify when to participate in a trend and when to create something original.
- Ensure trend-led content still feels unmistakably like the brand.
6) Be the Brand’s Story Filter
- Evaluate whether an idea is a story the brand should tell.
- Review concepts based on their contribution to the overall brand narrative, not just potential views.
- Ensure individual pieces of content strengthen the larger brand story.
- Build a social presence that feels consistent, recognisable and culturally relevant.
- Focus on creating content that builds long-term brand equity, not just short-term engagement.
What We're Looking for:
- 5–7 years of experience in video editing, content creation, filmmaking, or storytelling.
- Strong command of editing tools such as Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, or equivalent.
- A strong understanding of storytelling and narrative structure.
- Excellent sense of pacing, rhythm, music, visual composition, and emotional beats.
- Ability to turn unstructured footage into a coherent and engaging story.
- Strong creative instinct — you should be able to explain why an edit works, not just how to make it.
- Understanding of short-form content and what makes audiences stop, watch, engage, and remember.
- Ability to work independently, take ownership, and contribute ideas proactively.
You might be a great fit if you:
- Watch a video and immediately notice why the pacing feels off.
- Can take 20 minutes of random footage and find a 60-second story hidden inside it.
- Think about the audience's emotional journey, not just the timeline.
- Know when a dramatic pause is more powerful than another transition.
- Understand that sometimes the best edit is the clip you choose not to use.
- Have opinions about music, hooks, sequencing, and storytelling — and can back those opinions with reasoning.
- Are equally comfortable creating a story and editing it.
