Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Generate a constant stream of video concepts across TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts — each native to its platform
  • Write clear, punchy creative briefs that give producers and editors exactly what they need to execute
  • Collaborate daily with the Head of TikTok, Instagram, and Shorts to align on creative direction, formats, and priorities
  • Develop concepts from rough idea to fully fleshed brief — structure, hook, arc, and ending
  • Work hand-in-hand with producers to build out videos from brief to shoot-ready
  • Contribute to shot lists, run-of-show documents, and logistics planning for shortform shoots
  • Flag creative risks early and propose solutions before they become production problems
  • Serve as assistant director on shortform shoots alongside the Head of Creative
  • Be the creative conscience on set — ensuring the content matches the brief and the platform
  • Adapt in real time when shoots don't go to plan, keeping the creative outcome intact

Requirements

  • Real on-set experience — you understand production rhythm, know your role in a shoot, and operate well under pressure
  • Experience working with creators or inside a creator-led production environment
  • Fluency across TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts — you know what makes each platform different and you use that to write better concepts
  • The ability to write a great brief — tight hook, clear structure, platform-specific thinking, no fluff
  • A track record of shortform content that actually performed, and the analytical instinct to know why
  • Comfort working cross-functionally with producers, platform leads, and creative directors simultaneously
  • Data-driven but creatively instinctive — you can feel what's going to hit before the analytics confirm it
  • A communicator who can align a room, distill a note, and move things forward without friction
  • Someone who takes content personally — you want to make things people can't stop watching
  • Wired for compressed timelines where fast is the baseline and great is still the expectation

Preferred

  • You have experience assistant directing on shortform or branded content shoots
  • Proficiency in Figma, Adobe Suite, or CapCut for concept mockups or quick edits
