About this 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

Requirements

What we're looking for

- A proven track record self-shooting and self-editing short-form content, with a showreel or portfolio to back it up
- Strong editing skills (Premiere Pro, DaVinci, CapCut or similar; After Effects a plus)
- A real eye for TikTok-native, platform-first content rather than repurposed TV ads
- Confidence directing on camera and handling lighting and audio basics solo
- Comfort working at high volume and fast turnaround without dropping quality
- Self-starter who can use the initiative to edit without hand holding
