About the role
Somerce is a TikTok Shop Agency working with 70+ global brands across beauty, FMCG and wellness. We’re hiring a Content Editor to support with video edit and delivery. This is a hands-on creative role for someone who lives in the edit suite and is just as comfortable behind a camera.
What you’ll do
•
Edit short-form social content (TikTok, Reels, Shorts)
•
Produce UGC-style and direct-response adverts for paid social, built to convert, not just to look good
•
Turn footage from live commerce sessions, studio shoots and events into polished, platform-ready videos.
•
Handle the editing process from footage selection and assembly through to sound, colour correction, captions, light motion graphics and final delivery.
•
Repurpose long-form footage (keynotes, lives, podcasts) into a steady stream of short-form clips
•
Keep a consistent posting cadence against a content calendar
•
Stay ahead of platform formats and trends and bring ideas to the table, not just execute briefs
