Video Editor – Short-Form, Social Media

Job Position(s): Video Editor - Short-Form, Social Media

KRG Holdings Ltd is hiring a Video Editor specialising in short-form social media content, based in London. Sitting within a culturally driven social agency, this role is focused entirely on post-production output for short-form platforms, editing raw footage into platform-ready content for high-profile talent across music, sport, and the digital creator space. It suits an editor with a genuine feel for social media formats who is comfortable working at pace across multiple projects for recognisable names.

About the Role

This is a post-production role within a team that manages social content for talent across music, sport, and creator industries, producing material that reaches large audiences daily on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. The Video Editor works closely with internal creative teams to take concepts from brief to finished cut, handling everything from selects and assembly through to final delivery. Day to day, that means managing a varied edit queue, staying current with platform-specific trends, and turning around polished cuts quickly without losing quality.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit short-form video content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts, applying strong instincts for pacing, rhythm, and audience retention.
• Transform raw footage into polished, platform-ready cuts that reflect current social media trends and each platform’s native format requirements.
• Contribute creative input at the concept stage, bringing ideas for visual styles, edit approaches, and content formats that will perform on social.
• Manage multiple projects simultaneously within a short-form post-production workflow, meeting delivery timelines without compromising output quality.
• Monitor emerging social formats and platform updates to ensure content stays relevant and competitive across all channels.
• Maintain organised project files and asset libraries to support efficient handoffs and consistent delivery standards across the team.

What You Bring

• Proven experience editing short-form social media content, with a portfolio of work across TikTok, Reels, or YouTube Shorts that demonstrates results.
• Strong proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, or comparable editing and motion tools.
• A sharp understanding of viral formats, platform-specific nuances, and what makes short-form content perform with real audiences.
• The ability to manage a busy edit schedule independently, holding quality across multiple concurrent projects.
• A showreel or portfolio submission is strongly recommended and expected by KRG Holdings Ltd for this role.

Why This Role

KRG Holdings Ltd is part of a larger independent group that spans talent management and live festivals, including Glastonbury and The Great Escape, which gives this team access and adjacency that most social agencies cannot offer. The role is hybrid, with three days per week in central London, and the company has a track record of supporting career development alongside team-wide industry events and international work trips. For a Video Editor looking to build credits in the music and talent space, this is a well-connected place to do it.
