Role Overview
You will be the creative force behind our brand’s visual storytelling, producing short-form video content that captures attention and drives engagement on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook.

Your work directly supports the marketing team’s goal of building a strong local following and turning viewers into loyal customers.
Key Responsibilities
- Plan, film, and edit engaging short-form videos tailored to TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook, and other social channels.
- Lead TikTok production from concept to delivery, including brainstorming hooks, writing quick scripts, arranging shoots, and directing on-camera talent.
- Spot emerging trends and local cultural moments, then translate them into original video ideas that resonate with our audience.
- Own the entire post-production workflow: cutting footage, colour grading, cleaning up audio, adding subtitles and effects, and exporting in the right format for each platform.
- Collaborate with the Social Media Manager and marketing colleagues to ensure every video aligns with brand voice, campaign goals, and visual standards.
- Recommend the best video formats, shooting styles, and creative angles based on the platform, campaign objective, and target viewer.
- Create supporting graphic design assets such as social media posts, video thumbnails, promotional banners, and campaign visuals.
- Keep all video files, project assets, and design resources organised so the team can easily find and reuse content.
Requirements & Qualifications
- Hands-on experience shooting, editing, and finishing video projects independently, with a portfolio that shows your range.
- Strong command of editing tools such as Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve.
- Working knowledge of graphic design software like Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, or equivalent programs.
- A solid grasp of TikTok culture, short-form video trends, and what engages local audiences on social media.
- Keen awareness of current market topics and the ability to turn everyday observations into fresh, original content.
- A sharp eye for composition, colour, motion, and overall visual polish.
- Comfortable working solo on production tasks while also collaborating smoothly with marketing and social media teams.
- Reliable time management and a track record of meeting tight production deadlines.
- Access to your own professional video equipment is an added advantage.
- A portfolio or samples of your previous video and design work is required for consideration.
