  • Optimise content for each platform (formats, lengths, hooks, subtitles, pacing)
  • Stay on top of social trends, sounds, and formats, particularly in the parenting space
  • Collaborate with editorial, social and marketing teams to align content with brand and audience
  • Maintain and organise video assets and footage
