Senior Video Editor

Permanent employee, Full-time · Chiang Mai, Remote (THB)
45,000 - 70,000 ฿ per month
Introduction
We're looking for a Senior Video Editor who doesn't just edit - they elevate. You'll own the creative direction of video content across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook, bringing a data-informed point of view to everything you produce. This is not a role for someone who waits to be told what to do. You'll proactively identify opportunities, push creative boundaries, and drive measurable growth through exceptional content.
Expectations and Outcomes

What Sets You Apart

The right candidate is someone who:

  • Brings ideas to the table without being asked - you see a gap and you fill it
  • Talks in numbers - you track performance metrics and use data to inform your creative decisions
  • Has a proven track record of shipping high-quality, high-performing content with minimal oversight
  • Is genuinely curious about what works, why it works, and how to make it work better
  • Has thrived in fast-paced, international, or multicultural environments


Responsibilities

Content Creation & Performance

  • Edit and produce high-performing short-form and long-form videos per month across TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook
  • Analyze performance metrics (CTR, watch time, engagement rate, and more) and proactively propose creative improvements.
  • Stay ahead of platform trends, sound formats, and editing techniques to keep content fresh and competitive
  • Coordinate with Growth teams to align video assets with campaigns and product launches

Creative Leadership

  • Bring a strong point of view to every project - suggest directions, challenge briefs, and push for better outcomes
  • Collaborate with scriptwriters, social media managers, and designers to craft compelling visual stories
  • Experiment with motion graphics, pacing techniques, and trending creative formats
  • Develop and document clear SOPs, templates, and best practices for the video workflow

AI & Automation

  • Actively leverage AI tools (e.g. Runway, Descript, Opus Clip) to increase output speed and quality
  • Build and manage reusable automation workflows for recurring content formats
  • Explore and implement AI-driven captioning, voiceovers, and clip selection
  • Recommend and introduce tools and processes the team hasn't tried yet

Asset & Project Management

  • Maintain organized project files, shared asset libraries, and version control
  • Manage footage, soundtracks, templates, and motion graphics in a shared library
Requirements

  • Strong command of platform specs and best practices across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook
