Video Editor Short-Form UGC & Instagram Reels
Okhla Phase 1, New Delhi (In-person) • Full-time
TMC & Co. is a Delhi-NCR based social media marketing agency. We build Instagram-first content reels, campaigns, and Meta Ads for D2C, fashion, F&B, and lifestyle brands, managing everything from content strategy to shoot to publish to paid performance.
About the Role
We're not looking for a graphic designer who edits on the side we need a proper video editor who specializes in short-form, UGC-style content and can build reels that are genuinely hard to scroll past. Someone who thinks about pacing, hooks, and retention as much as they think about the cut itself.
What You’ll Do
Edit short-form UGC-style reels built to stop the scroll not just clean edits, but genuinely retentive ones
- Build motion graphics and kinetic typography in After Effects to sharpen hooks, callouts, and pacing
- Bring creative thinking to every edit proposing cuts, structure, and transitions rather than just following a brief literally
- Structure hooks in the first 12 seconds and edit for watch-time and retention, not just aesthetics
- Style dynamic captions/subtitles that boost readability and retention, not just default templates
- Turn one piece of raw footage into multiple edit variations different hooks, lengths, or cuts for testing what performs best
- Sync trending audio and adapt editing style across multiple client accounts, each with its own brand tone
- Work from raw shoot footage, voiceovers, and scripts provided by the content team
- Keep project files, versions, and exports organized for fast handoffs and quick turnarounds
- Collaborate with the content/strategy team on what’s actually performing and iterate edits based on that, not just gut feel
- Stay current on reel/UGC trends, transitions, and formats what’s working this week may not work next week
What We’re Looking For
- Software: Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects for motion graphics both required, not optional; CapCut is a plus
- Strong, demonstrable experience editing short-form UGC-style content specifically not general video editing, and not graphic design
- A sharp creative eye someone who looks at raw footage and finds the hook, the joke, the moment, not just cuts on the beat
- Comfortable delivering on tight turnarounds without letting quality slip client review cycles run fast
- Takes feedback well and iterates quickly revisions are a normal part of the process, not a setback
- Organized and deadline-driven juggling multiple client projects at once without losing track of versions
- 6 months2 years of experience
Good to Have
- Color grading experience
- Sound design and audio-to-cut syncing sensibility
- Prior experience editing UGC content for D2C or lifestyle brands specifically
