Junior Video Editor

THE ROLE

You're a fast, instinctive editor who lives on TikTok, Reels, YouTube and wherever short-form video is actually being watched.

You know what makes a cut work, why certain pacing lands, how a sound design choice can make or break a scene, and how to match the energy of a platform without defaulting to formula.

You'll cut across the full range of Growthcurve's video output: UGC and influencer ads, brand films, competition teasers and hype videos, episodic content, vlog episodes and original campaign work.

You'll work closely with our Creatives, Producers, Art Directors and Growth team to turn raw footage into assets that perform.

This is a role for someone who is serious about a career in editing: hungry to learn, obsessed with craft and excited about how the discipline is evolving with AI.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Edit across the full range of Growthcurve's video output: UGC and influencer ads (fast turnaround, multiple variations), performance video for paid social, brand films and campaign hero content, competition, teaser and hype videos, original and episodic brand content, and long-form content for the Growthcurve vlog.
• Edit for platform: TikTok, Reels, Stories, YouTube Shorts and YouTube long-form, with genuine fluency in how pacing, aspect ratio, captions, hooks and sound design differ across each.
• Add titles, motion graphics, transitions and effects that elevate content without distracting from it.
• Produce multiple cuts and variations of every asset: different durations, aspect ratios, hooks, endings and creative variants for testing.
• Colour-grade, sound-mix and finish work to a high standard across every delivery.
• Manage your own time effectively across concurrent projects with tight turnaround demands.
• Integrate AI tools into your workflow to speed up repetitive tasks without sacrificing polish (transcription, auto-captioning, rough assembly, background removal, voice cloning where appropriate).
• Keep files organised: clean project structures, proper labelling, good archive hygiene.
• Contribute creatively in kick-off sessions and reviews, bringing ideas about pacing, structure and sound that make the work better.

WHO YOU ARE

• 1-3 years of editing experience with a strong showreel demonstrating social-first work across short-form video.
• Proficient in Premiere Pro, CapCut and (ideally) DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut, fluent in the tool you prefer.
• Basic to intermediate After Effects or motion design skills, confident adding titles, simple animation and effects.
• Deeply online: you understand what makes content work on TikTok, Reels and YouTube because you watch a lot of it and you notice how edits are built.
• A strong instinct for pacing, rhythm and sound design, you understand that great editing is as much about sound and timing as it is about visuals.
• Genuinely curious about AI video tools: you've experimented with what's out there and you're actively working them into your process.
• Exceptionally organised: clean project files, clear communication, no dropped deliverables.
• A positive, collaborative attitude with the maturity to take notes constructively and iterate fast.
• Hungry to learn and ready to grow your craft alongside senior creatives producing work for world-class brands.

BONUS POINTS

• Hands-on experience with performance video specifically, particularly for paid social and UGC ads at volume.
• Motion graphics ability beyond the basics.
• Sound design or music editing capability.
• Basic colour grading skills in Resolve or Lumetri.
• A personal project, YouTube channel or social account where you've developed your editing style.
