Video content Creator in City of London

Job description

Video Content Creator & Editor | Beauty & Skincare

Location: North London (Hybrid: 2 days office-based)

We’re working with an industry-leading beauty brand with a cult-like following. Due to continued growth and success, the opportunity to recruit a Video Content Creator has arisen to turn products into scroll-stopping moments.

We’re not looking for UGC-style content here. This is a chance to produce beautifully branded, high-performing content that lives across paid social, DTC, and retail channels.

If you’re passionate about beauty, obsessed with great lighting, and can spot a weak cut from a mile away, this could be your next role.

Responsibilities

• Brainstorm, plan, shoot, and edit short-form video content that’s visually premium and designed to convert across Meta, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts
• Capture high-quality studio footage of their products in action (pouring textures, close-ups of finished manicures, skincare applications, etc)
• Own product storytelling through video: getting the lighting right, perfecting the colour balance, and creating impact through subtle details
• Edit existing footage from shoots (including influencer and campaign material) into ads that perform, using different crops, text overlays, hooks, and cutdowns
• Help develop visual language for our new launches, from top-funnel awareness content to product tutorials
• Collaborate with their brand and channel teams to understand what performs and continuously optimise based on data
• Keep file organisation tidy and shared folders clear, from raw footage to final assets
• Occasionally support large-scale shoots (internal and external) with gear setup or BTS capture
• Experiment with AI tools to scale content output and generate motion effects or cutdowns where relevant

Requirements

• At least 2-3 years worth of experience in video content creation for paid media and digital channels - Show us your portfolio or social links. Preference for candidates who have experience working in-house, ideally within the beauty industry.
• Confident working with professional cameras and high-end smartphones, capturing beauty products with the right framing, focus, and lighting to really make them shine.
• Skilled in editing with Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, or DaVinci Resolve - creating polished videos with seamless cuts, music, colour tweaks, and the right aspect ratios for every platform.
• Experienced in adding captions, text overlays, and lower-thirds, and excited to explore motion graphics or After Effects down the line.
• Knows how to get clean audio using lavalier, wireless, or shotgun mics, and can tidy up sound in the editing process.
