Role Description This role is all about turning raw footage into high-performing, polished, scroll-stopping content that makes learning genuinely exciting. With our audience growing fast, we’re looking for an editor who can take ownership of edits end-to-end — producing binge-worthy videos with speed, taste, and precision, while keeping everything sharp, modern, and unmistakably MyEdSpace. A key part of this role will also be editing high-performing ad creatives: conversion-focused videos built to stop the scroll, drive sales, and perform across platforms. You’ll play a major part in shaping the content output of our influencer teachers and performance marketing — combining strong editorial judgement with high-level motion design to create content that stands out everywhere we post. What you’ll do - Edit High-Impact Video Content: Own the editing process across educational, marketing, and short-form + long-form content — typically 100-140 videos per month, delivering consistently strong output with minimal oversight. - Motion Graphics & Visual Storytelling: Create and enhance edits using high-quality motion graphics, kinetic typography, animated assets, and polished transitions that elevate retention and brand feel. - Maintain Brand & Quality Standards: Follow templates, guidelines, and systems - while also improving them where needed to keep output clean, consistent, and premium. - Deliver With Minimal Iterations: Produce work that’s nearly final on first delivery, showing strong judgement in pacing, structure, sound design, and creative choices. Qualifications - Strong Editing Experience: 2–5+ years of video editing experience (freelance, agency, in-house, or content creator world) with a portfolio that proves quality and speed. - High Motion Graphics Ability: Confident creating advanced motion graphics (not just basic captions) — including typography animation, transitions, on-screen visual structure, and clean design execution. - Language Skills: Minimum B2 (Upper Intermediate) English proficiency. - Technical Skills: Strong proficiency in professional editing tools (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro). Bonus if experienced with After Effects and editing automation workflows. - Low-Iteration Mindset: You’re detail-driven and can deliver edits that require minimal back-and-forth — you spot issues before they’re flagged and fix them proactively. Preferred Qualifications - Experience in EdTech / educational content. - Familiarity with content styles for the US. - Strong creative instincts: pacing, storytelling, hooks, and retention-driven structure. - Confidence working with influencer-led content and fast turnaround timelines. Our values - PUT INTEGRITY FIRST: Honesty matters. Tell the truth, and be straight-up. Be transparent and do the right thing. This builds respect and reliability for our students, families and team members. - KNOW YOUR COORDINATES: Understand where you are and where you want to get to. Know your strengths and acknowledge your gaps. Think from first principles. Question things, and never pretend to know what you don't. - RAISE THE BAR: Own it and get it done. Do better. Iterate quickly and seek feedback. Deliver real value. Be excellent and lift others up. Share learnings and help your teammates improve. - LOVE TO BE WRONG: Push boundaries. Be outside your comfort zone. Naturally you'll get some things wrong and that's okay. Embrace feedback. Learn from it and get closer to excellence. - WIN TOGETHER: To achieve our mission, we have to work together. We all have a role to play, so help each other get there. We’re stronger as a team so inspire, support and respect each other. Why you’ll love working here - The chance to make a real impact: your work directly shapes the future of education. - A fast-paced and high-growth environment where ideas move quickly and careers accelerate. - A collaborative, supportive culture: we’re headquartered in the UK, but we’re a global team with colleagues in 15+ countries, bringing a rich mix of perspectives and energy. - We are committed to building a diverse team and strongly encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds. We believe diverse perspectives make us stronger and help us build a better product for students around the world.
