  • Edit quickly and efficiently, producing high volumes of content when needed
  • 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

Desirable:

  • Basic motion graphics or animation skills
