MIDGROW is looking for a skilled Video Editor with strong technical knowledge of video editing and practical experience working in a digital marketing agency.
The ideal candidate should understand how to edit videos specifically for social media, especially short-form and viral content, and should be able to turn a raw concept or footage into engaging, platform-ready videos.

Edit videos designed for high engagement and audience retention.
Study viral and high-performing videos and understand what makes their editing effective.
Work with content strategists and social media teams to execute creative concepts.
Handle raw footage and convert it into polished final videos.
Create strong hooks, pacing and visual transitions suitable for short-form content.
Add appropriate motion graphics, text animation, sound effects, music and other editing elements.
Maintain brand consistency across different client projects.
Understand and follow creative briefs while also contributing your own editing ideas.
Manage project files, footage, assets and final exports in an organised manner.
Deliver videos according to deadlines and required specifications.
Make revisions based on creative direction and client requirements.

Can identify weak pacing and improve viewer retention.
