Short-Form Video Editor | UK hours

Job Description
Our client in the UK is looking for a Short-Form Video Editor to turn raw footage into scroll-stopping short-form content that sounds and feels like the client. You will take long-form footage (typically clips of around two hours) and cut it into punchy, on-brand videos that land UK humour, pacing and hooks first time, so the London team spends its time on ideas rather than rounds of feedback.
Key responsibilities
- Review long-form footage and pull out the strongest moments, reactions and hooks for short-form content.
- Edit high volumes of vertical video for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, to agreed daily or weekly output targets.
- Write and time on-screen captions, text overlays, hooks and calls to action that match the tone and UK audience.
- Apply sound, music, trending audio, pacing and transitions that suit each platform and format.
- Produce multiple variations of a concept (different hooks, CTAs or cuts) for testing.
- Self-check every video against the brief and brand guidelines before submission, cutting down QC and revision cycles.
- Turn feedback around quickly within the same working day where possible.
- Keep footage, project files and exports organised in storage and project management tools.
- Keep across TikTok and Instagram trends, formats and UK culture, and bring ideas to the team.
