Job Summary
Firstly this role is not about making sh*tty corporate vids. Nobody wants that
Were looking for someone who wants to make two-minute tear-jerkers perfectly timed gags and scroll-stopping clips that capture attention reflect Tracksuits distinct brand voice (unexplainable joy) across every social channel and helps us build the biggest and most engaged marketing and brand audience in the world.
If you dream in match cuts know your clip theory from your session times held a camera before you held a spoon and get a genuine dopamine hit from the moment the J-cut slaps youll thrive here. Were looking for a bold deep-in-the-edit storyteller who can take a wide range of footage and turn it into short sharp stories with a high level of craft and at a pace that protects (not stifles) creative momentum.
Unlike companies that expect high-bar creative output with little support at Tracksuit youll get:
- A creative collective of fellow off-piste thinkers (not AI slop addicts) to lol with.
- A diverse whole video diet of raw footage B-roll UCG clips vox pops podcast recordings animation renders and other composite visual story assets about the worlds biggest consumer brands to edit into YouTube gold.
- Real budgets so you can actually get the plugins presets and gear you need to make cool sh*t and focus more on hooks animations and story arcs than price.
- Full creative control in the edit (structure music pacing the lot) and freedom to express your video gift to the world. And get paid for it!
What youll do:
- Edit video that feels made for the platform it lives on not repurposed for it. Native to TikTok native to LinkedIn always unmistakably Tracksuit.
- Turn raw footage into content that stops the scroll whether thats a glitchy iPhone clip cut in an afternoon or a proper shoot youve briefed an external partner to nail with a high craft vibe.
- Keep the cut-downs coming every week and bring your own ideas to the table not just your timeline. You are on the creative team yo!
- Edit across a broad content mix: podcast clips webinar countdowns event vox pops in-house creator content and brand film pieces.
- Edit short-form video for organic and paid social (TikTok Instagram YouTube LinkedIn) and adapt content for our owned channels (website email etc.).
- Collaborate with the wider marketing team to execute video content aligned with campaign goals and brand standards. Help form the idea not just edit someone elses.
- Juggle multiple projects without dropping the ball. You know when good enough beats perfect and shipped.
- Organise archive and maintain video and photo assets for efficient reuse and access.
- You own the edit end to end: structure animation music pacing. If it looks and feels right its your call.
What were looking for:
- You have a strong understanding of editing technique video production and post-production across all modern editing tools and platforms.
- You know your sh*t. Youre fluent in the lingo. You can tell us what the heck a long-GOP is and can describe the difference between a 3 cam 1080p XF-AVC-S 10-bit and a 2 individual WAV.
- You deeply understand platform fundamentals: retention clip theory session times watch times and what works on which platform (YouTube TikTok Instagram LinkedIn).
- You know how to hook an audience in the first few seconds.
- You have hands-on thumbnail design ability or strong art direction taste and the ability to brief and collaborate with design.
- Youre comfortable writing titles descriptions occasional voiceover scripts and captions whatever it takes to make the edit sing like Susan Boyle.
- Youre open-minded about AI and modern editing tools that make the craft better not tools for producing sloppy volume.
- Youre highly curious about internet culture emerging trends and evolving platform behaviours balanced with strong editorial judgement and attention to detail. You follow trends but you dont jump on the bandwagon unless its right for the brand.
- You love the craft. You find your creative flow state deep in the edit suite and you live for high velocity and speed of production. Speed is like your creative oxygen.
- Youre a storyteller at heart: you love the craft and you know how to tug heartstrings land a tear-jerking two-minute short film or slip in a well-timed gag. You live breathe and think in frame rates cadence and storytelling arcs.
Who you might be:
- You have a deep passion for film and video with a strong point of view on what makes good video in 2026 and beyond.
- Youre probably a massive movie buff and a deep consumer of online video. Youd be proud to show off your YouTube algorithm and youre the go-to person at a party for have you seen anything good lately
- You dont need a B2B SaaS background in fact its probably better if you dont have one. Ideally you come from somewhere closer to culture (AKA the real world!). Think: a media company doing journalistic or satirical video storytelling building your own well-edited YouTube channel or supporting Insta-famous people like athletes or celebs with behind-the-scenes and day-in-the-life video content.
Team & reporting:
Youll be a core highly collaborative part of a tight-knit creative team: made up of an In-House Creator Motion Designer Creative Director Writer/Editor and Social Media Manager all reporting into the Head of Brand. We get weird. But not in a weird way. #ideas4lyfe.
And this isnt just a seat at the table its a foundational one. Youll be one of the earliest members of Tracksuit Studio helping build the creative engine from scratch and take our brand somewhere no B2B company has dared gone before.
