About the Role

We're a social media management company. We manage Instagram and TikTok content for a growing roster of lifestyle/influencer creators. We need editors who can take raw footage and turn it into a large amount of distinct, publishable reels — consistently, every week, long term.

THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF THIS ROLE — READ THIS FIRST

The core skill we are hiring for is reskinning. We will send you one piece of raw footage. We need you to produce 2-3 separate reels from it that Instagram does not detect as the same video.

This is not about making one video look pretty. It's about producing many variants that are materially different to the platform's detection systems while staying visually consistent for the audience. If you already do this, you know exactly what we mean and you should apply. If you've never heard of it, this role isn't for you.

Concretely, per variant you'd be changing things like:

  • A different audio track on every single variant (Instagram matches the audio fingerprint, not just the video — same sound on two uploads means both get flagged as non-original)
  • Different on-screen text and a different hook in the first second
  • Different caption
  • Slightly different crop, zoom or framing
  • Slightly different colour grade
  • Different in/out points — different trim, different clip order, different length

We don't want identical re-uploads with a new caption slapped on. We want variants that pass as original content. You should be able to explain to us, in your application, how you approach this.

THE REST OF THE WORK

Beyond reskinning, most edits are genuinely simple. You get raw vertical footage plus a reference reel showing the exact style we want. In many cases the job is: trim, captions, audio, export. We're hiring speed, consistency and volume.

WHAT WE NEED

  • Proven Instagram Reels / TikTok editing experience — send links to actual posted videos, not a showreel
  • Demonstrable experience with content repurposing and reskinning
  • Capacity for 100+ finished reels per month minimum, sustained, without quality dropping
  • You work from a written brief and match a reference — you don't reinvent the style
  • 24-48 hour turnaround on batches
  • You understand short-form: hook in the first second, captions inside the safe zone, 9:16, trending audio

PAY
Fixed rate per finished reel, paid per batch. Tell us your rate in your application. This is ongoing work with a monthly minimum, not a one-off project, and the volume grows as we grow. If you're fast and reliable, this is stable income every single month.

HOW TO APPLY
1. Links to 3 short-form videos you personally edited
2. In two or three sentences: how do you reskin one video into multiple uploads without it getting flagged as non-original?
3. Max finished reels per week you can genuinely deliver
4. Your software, your timezone, your rate per reel
