We're looking for someone who thinks in formats, not just footage. This isn't a traditional editing role. You're not cutting long-form and trimming it down - you're building content that's native to the platform it lives on. You understand the difference between a TikTok and a Reel, between a story and a post, and you know how to make something feel right for where it's going to land. You'll be working across a range of fast-moving projects - jumping between brands, formats and briefs - and you'll bring the technical skill and creative eye to elevate raw content into something worth stopping for.
What you'll own:
- Editing and delivering social-first content across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and beyond
- Working across multiple client projects simultaneously, managing your time and output without losing quality
- Taking raw footage and assets and shaping them into platform-native edits - not just cuts, but considered pieces
- Staying close to editing trends, formats and platform updates so our content always feels current
- Collaborating with the wider Monty team on briefs, feedback rounds and delivery
Who are Monty?
We're an award-winning social and creative agency making impact and real results happen with the world's biggest brands and boldest changemakers. Our work spans hospitality, entertainment, music, culture, live, charities and NGOs - and everything in between. Everyone here works closely with the brands we represent.
Day rate: £200–£350 (freelance/contract). This role is open to 2–3 days a week on an ongoing basis. If the fit is right, we'll make it work.
What we're looking for:
- Native fluency in CapCut and Premiere Pro - these are your daily tools, not things you're learning on the job
- A sharp eye for what makes content stop the scroll - pacing, sound, captions, transitions, the lot
- Understanding of platform specs and how to optimise edits for each channel
- Someone who can take a brief and run with it, but also knows when to ask the right question
- Organised and reliable - you're juggling multiple streams and nothing slips
Nice to have:
- Photoshop experience for thumbnail and asset creation
- Motion graphics or basic animation skills
- An interest in the creative and strategic side of social, not just the edit
