Overview

At Metricool you’ll transform ideas into engaging visual stories, bringing energy and style to video content with creativity and strategic freedom. We help professionals and small businesses around the world save time and get better results on social media. You can work 100% remotely in an international and fast-growing company where all team members love to create, collaborate, analyze, and help social media managers make their work easier. Your mission is to create, adapt, and develop impactful visual content for our marketing team through high-quality, brand-aligned editing and smart creative input, ensuring that the brand’s voice and visual identity lead the way.

Responsibilities

• Edit and deliver high-quality, short-form engaging videos (TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts).

• Support senior editors in long-form content production for YouTube, including translation, repurposing, and adaptation.

First Days Plan

• First month: Focus on familiarizing with workflows, tools, and brand style. Start editing short-form content with guidance and collaborate with the content and video team.
• First quarter: Begin managing a steady stream of short-form edits independently and support long-form video adaptations. Start pitching small creative ideas and help evolve the visual storytelling of our short-form strategy.
• Long term: Become a core part of the video team — confidently handling both short-form and long-form edits, balancing content priorities, and contributing to the creative direction of our social video strategy across markets.

  • Strong understanding of storytelling, pacing, and what drives retention especially on YouTube.
