Video Editor

  • Sep 17 2026

We are looking for a creatively driven Video Editor (1 - 2 years of Experience) who understands luxury beauty storytelling, premium visual language, short-form content, and performance-focused editing.

The ideal candidate should be able to create content that feels elevated, modern, social-first, and conversion-aware -  across Instagram reels, ads, product launches, founder-led content, influencer collaborations, and UGC.

Responsibilities

  • Edit elevated short-form videos for Instagram Reels, Meta ads, YouTube Shorts, product launches, campaigns, founder-led content, and website/social assets.

  • Create premium beauty content with strong pacing, refined transitions, clean typography, and a luxury visual language.

  • Edit product-focused videos including texture shots, swatches, application videos, before/after formats, wear tests, shade comparisons, and product benefit explainers.

  • Work on influencer collaborations, UGC edits, customer testimonials, founder videos, campaign videos, and brand films.

  • Convert raw content into multiple formats: reels, stories, ads, teaser videos, product education videos, launch countdowns, and performance creatives.

  • Add motion graphics, captions, subtitles, typography, animation, product callouts, and trend-led editing elements while maintaining brand elegance.

  • Understand hooks, retention, scroll-stopping openings, and platform-first editing for Instagram and Meta ads.

  • Repurpose long-form content into short, sharp, engaging clips.

  • Work closely with the founder/marketing team to bring product stories, shade education, brand philosophy, and campaign ideas to life.

  • Leverage AI-powered tools to speed up workflows, enhance visuals, create references, support ideation, generate backgrounds, and improve content production.

  • Stay updated on beauty, fashion, skincare, luxury, UGC, creator, and social media video trends.

  • Maintain organised video files, raw footage, edited versions, templates, subtitles, music references, and brand assets.

Requirements

  • Strong command over Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut, VN, DaVinci Resolve, or similar fast-paced editing applications.

  • Sharp eye for beauty aesthetics, luxury pacing, visual storytelling, product details, and social-first content.

  • Strong understanding of Instagram Reels, stories, short-form video trends, UGC formats, creator-style content, and ad creatives.

  • Ability to edit both polished brand films and raw, relatable, high-converting UGC-style videos.

  • Experience working with beauty, fashion, skincare, wellness, lifestyle, luxury, or D2C brands preferred.

  • Good understanding of typography, captions, motion graphics, transitions, sound design, colour correction, and visual rhythm.

  • Familiarity with AI-assisted editing workflows and tools such as Runway, Adobe Firefly, ChatGPT, Canva AI, CapCut AI, or similar tools.

  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, founder-led beauty brand environment.

  • Beauty enthusiast with a strong eye for trends, textures, colours, product application, skin/lip close-ups, and premium aesthetics.

  • Strong portfolio showcasing reels, ads, UGC edits, product videos, launch videos, or campaign content.

  • Basic knowledge of 3D editing using Blender, 3ds Max, Cinema 4D, or similar software is a plus.

Added Advantage

  • Experience editing performance marketing creatives for Meta and Google ads.

  • Ability to create multiple versions of the same video for A/B testing.

  • Understanding of hooks, retention, watch time, CTA placement, and conversion-led editing.

  • Experience with beauty product close-ups, texture videos, shade swatches, lip/skin application videos, and founder-led storytelling.

  • Ability to create premium-looking content even from simple phone-shot footage.

  • Basic shooting knowledge is a strong plus - lighting, framing, phone camera setup, product angles, and audio.

  • Ability to work with influencer/UGC content and make it feel on-brand without over-polishing it.

What We’re Looking For

We are looking for someone who understands that beauty video content must do more than look pretty.

It should:

  • stop the scroll,

  • hold attention,

  • explain the product clearly,

  • feel premium,

  • build trust,

  • and help convert viewers into customers.

The right person should be equally comfortable editing a polished launch film and a quick founder-led reel shot on a phone - because both matter for a growing beauty brand.
