From a bold idea to revolutionising dog food, Years has grown into a fast‑scaling business dedicated to helping dogs live longer, healthier lives.

In just 3 years, we've built a great start up business, serving thousands of happy customers, all while striving to achieve our mission.

Our goal? To give dog owners a better, fresher, and healthier way to feed their pets. We provide human cut, personalised meals designed to support each dog's unique needs, delivered straight to their door - no preservatives, no compromises, just real nutrition.

You can find our customers across the UK, with future ambitions to scale internationally and continue transforming how people care for their dogs. 🚀

Your Mission

As a Video Editor you will be at the forefront of our paid advertising strategy, editing high‑performing short‑form ads that drive customer engagement and conversions.

Each day is jam‑packed and fast paced, so efficiency is key for producing large amounts of high‑quality ads every week.
