ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Social Video Creator / Editor who can turn raw footage, livestreams and half-formed ideas into videos and carousels people actually want to watch. You know what works on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube Shorts; you can spot the good moment in a long recording, find an angle, write a strong hook and edit the piece yourself. You enjoy fostering a community on social media and potentially might even be open to playing a role in front of the camera, too. You’ll work across several clients including eBay, with plenty of room to also help shape new formats and pitches. There’s a few exciting things in the pipeline.

This role is part of our Creative team that consists of Concept & Social Creatives, Art Directors, Copywriters, Graphic and Motion Designers as well as Social Media Managers who in one way or another, you will work collaboratively with. You’ll report to the Creative Directors.

WHAT YOU’LL DO:

Find the story and make the content

• Turn raw footage, livestreams and loose briefs into finished social videos, from selecting the strongest moments and finding the angle to writing the hook and editing the final cut.
• Edit videos yourself for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, shaping the pacing, captions, sound and visuals for each platform.
• Create social-first carousels and other assets, working with designers and motion specialists when a piece needs their expertise.

Bring ideas to the table

• Spot trends, audience conversations and moments worth turning into content, then develop ideas and formats that make sense for each client.
• Help shape content for ongoing accounts, campaigns and pitches, and move quickly when an unplanned opportunity comes up.
• Write sharp German copy, from on-screen text and scripts to captions and community replies.

• Help keep conversations with the community going and use what you learn from the audience to make the next piece stronger.
• If you’re comfortable with it, occasionally step in front of the camera yourself.

WHAT YOU BRING:

• A portfolio of social videos you’ve conceived and edited yourself. We care more about the work than the number of years on your CV.
• Strong hands-on editing skills in Premiere Pro or a comparable professional tool beyond capcut templates. You know how to use pacing, sound, subtitles and graphics to make a video work
