About this role

ABOUT US

We're living through a fundamental shift in how people discover, evaluate, and purchase products. The next generation doesn't respond to traditional marketing -- they build relationships with brands through authentic social interactions, seek recommendations from communities they trust, and expect personalized experiences that feel human, not corporate.

At Nectar, we're building the AI-native social operating system that enables this new era of commerce. We believe every social interaction should deepen the relationship between brands and their communities while creating genuine value for both sides.

Founded by ex-Meta product and engineering leaders, we've raised over $30M in total capital from investors including GV and True Ventures. We work with brands like Oura Health, Caraway, e.l.f. Cosmetics, Kosas, OLIPOP, and many more. We're building the future of social commerce -- where community, conversation, and commerce converge.

WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We’re hiring a video editor and content producer who can originate ideas, build on a rough concept, and carry it through to a polished short-form video. Your strengths are content ideation, storytelling, and editing, with the taste and initiative to shape the hook, script, and final cut without needing a fully built-out brief. You can also shoot when the idea calls for it.

(we want narrative driven videos like this going out on a regular, consistent basis (i.e. 1x/week)

WHAT YOU’LL WORK ON

- Pitch fresh content ideas, develop hooks and scripts, and turn loose briefs into clear stories and practical production plans.

- Own the edit from raw material through pacing, color, sound, captions, graphics, feedback, and final delivery for social, launches, and brand campaigns.

- Create short-form videos from scripted scenes, case studies, interviews, product moments, office content, and existing footage.

- Help plan footage capture when needed, including simple camera, lighting, and audio guidance and remote direction for the team or filming partners.

- Combine live action with product captures, screen recordings, typography, and motion graphics where they strengthen the story.

- Build repeatable formats and alternate hooks or cuts so we can test ideas and improve quickly.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

- A portfolio of strong short-form edits, including work you took from a loose idea to a finished video.

- The ability to generate original content ideas and develop a clear angle, hook, and story from limited direction.

- Comfort shooting on a phone when it’s right for the idea. You choose the setup that serves the content.

- Strong visual storytelling, pacing, comedic timing, sound, and instincts for social formats.

- Confidence directing non-actors, organizing footage and project files, and delivering polished work in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut.

- Proficiency in AI-powered creative workflows and a strong working understanding of Higgsfield, including integrating AI-generated visuals with live-action footage and using AI throughout concepting, preproduction, and postproduction.

- Deep understanding of short-form video best practices, including strong opening hooks, retention-focused pacing, platform-native framing, captions, sound, and testing different cuts.

- Advanced motion graphics experience and After Effects proficiency, with the ability to create polished typography, transitions, compositing, and product animations that integrate naturally with live-action footage.

- Bonus: advanced camera and lighting skills, scripted comedy, or experience creating for technology brands.

About this listing

Published on Ashby under the board identifier Nectar Social, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.

RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.

Published 6 October 2026, last checked 8 days ago. A posting stops being advertised here 90 days after the employer published it, and one the employer takes down is marked closed rather than quietly removed.
