Freelance Video Editor

We're looking for a versatile Video Editor who can turn raw footage into scroll-stopping content and bring motion and animation to life. You'll edit across formats — from fast-paced reels to polished product launches — use AI tools to work faster and smarter, adapt ready-made templates when they speed things up, and handle light graphic design when a project needs it. A strong feel for pacing, hooks and what makes content feel native to the platform is essential.
What You Will Be Working On
Short-form reels and social video, built to perform on Instagram
Product launch videos for new brand and product onboarding
Explainer and educational videos on health and supplement topics
Podcast editing — full episodes plus short, punchy clips cut for social
Promotional and campaign videos across the content calendar
Motion graphics and 2D animation — animated text, transitions, and simple brand/character animation
Editing and customising ready-made templates (Envato/Motion Array and similar) for both video and graphics, adapting them to our brand
Light graphic design support — thumbnails, on-screen graphics, lower-thirds and simple static assets
What We Expect
Strong editing across a range of styles — short-form, talking head, explainer, product and podcast
Proficiency in After Effects for motion graphics and 2D animation
Proficiency in Illustrator for vector graphics and design assets (Photoshop a plus)
Comfortable sourcing, editing and customising templates from Envato, Motion Array or similar — reworking them to fit our brand rather than using them off the shelf
Comfortable building AI tools into your workflow — AI-assisted editing, transcription and captioning, generative audio/video, upscaling — with a critical eye on quality and brand fit
Proficiency in Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut for editing
A genuine feel for what performs on Instagram Reels — strong hooks, tight pacing, native-feeling edits
Podcast and audio editing — cleaning up audio, balancing levels, cutting for clarity and repurposing into clips
The ability to work to a brief while bringing your own creative thinking
Reliable, organised and consistent with output
Nice to Have
Experience with health, wellness or lifestyle content
A showreel or portfolio of your own edits and animation work
Sound design and colour grading
Familiarity with generative AI tools such as Runway, Descript, ElevenLabs or similar
