916 Studios is a premium creative production company producing social-first content for brands, creators, agencies, and public companies. Our clients range from fast-scaling consumer brands to publicly listed companies, with projects including work for Google, Oracle and TikTok.

THE ROLE:

We're looking for a multi-disciplinary Video Creator / Creative Editor who doesn't wait to be told that something 'could be better'. Video Creators produce high-performance content for social media, website and beyond, blending strategy, editing, motion, sound, and narrative into media that drives results, (not just views).

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

• Edit premium short & long-form content for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, and X
• Own projects end-to-end, from brief to final delivery
• Act as your own creative director, i.e. source, create, or generate every asset if needed, including: graphics, motion, sound, etc, to cohesively serve the story
• Build engaging hooks, retention and pacing
• Adapt creative styles intelligently to different brands and audiences

• 5+ years of professional editing experience
• A portfolio of social-first content that proves viewer-retention with links to work currently live on social media
• Advanced Premiere Pro + working After Effects so that you can build from scratch, (not reliant on templates)
• A strong sense of storytelling, with the ability to independently select and organise footage into a coherent, engaging narrative even without a provided script
• The ability to work efficiently under pressure and at speed without compromising quality
• Strong sense for design, photo editing, and branding
• A strong sound design, colour grading, and audio mixing ability
• A deep understanding of hooks, pacing, retention, and platform-native editing
• Clean workflow habits: methodical, organised, no missed deadlines and excellent communication.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:

• You consistently deliver high-quality edits with meticulous attention to detail
• Your first cuts are robust and require minimal revision (if any!)
• You actively look for ways to improve content without being asked
• You anticipate roadblocks and resolve issues independently before escalating
• You meet deadlines consistently and flag potential delays early
• You bring fresh ideas, formats, and techniques to every project

WHY JOIN US:

• 100% remote, flexible working
• Full creative ownership from day one without micromanagement
• International brands and creator campaigns
• Performance bonuses + genuine path to a core creative role
• Up-skilling with AI workflows and content systems
