- Communicate proactively on timelines, approvals, and revisions
- Contribute creative concepts regularly (new angles, hooks, formats)
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Demonstrated success creating short-form video content (TikTok/IG portfolio required)
- Strong storytelling in 15–45 seconds: hook → value → proof → CTA
- Consistent ability to deliver on deadlines and adapt to feedback
- Professional communication and comfort working with a US-based brand team
- Non-negotiable: prior remote work experience and fluency with remote collaboration tools (Slack, Zoom, Google Workspace, Asana or similar). Candidates must have ideally worked with US or UK-based companies—applications without this experience will not be considered.
