We're a just-launched startup looking for a versatile content creator who can produce high-quality video and image assets our growth team will deploy across Meta, TikTok, Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube Shorts, and Google Display.

This is a production-first role. You'll work closely with our Growth Hacker, turning briefs into scroll-stopping creatives — from animated ads to organic reels to static social graphics. Speed, quality, and brand consistency are the three things we care about most.

What you'll create

• Short-form video ads (6s, 15s, 30s) for Meta and TikTok — hook-first storytelling, optimised for mobile-first viewing.
• Motion graphics and animated explainers using After Effects — bringing the Kiwi Tales brand to life with character and warmth.
• Organic reels and TikToks — raw-feel, trend-aware videos that show the magic of personalised books for kids.
• Static social graphics for Instagram, Pinterest, and Facebook — carousels, story frames, ad creatives, and product mockups.
• YouTube Shorts and longer-form video content when needed — unboxings, gifting moments, behind-the-scenes.
• AI-assisted image generation and compositing — using tools like Midjourney, Firefly, or Runway to speed up production without sacrificing quality.
• Asset versioning — resizing and adapting each piece for every platform format (9:16, 1:1, 4:5, 16:9) without losing visual impact.

What we're looking for

• Proficient in After Effects — you can build motion graphics, kinetic text, and simple character animation from scratch.
• Strong video editing skills in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or CapCut — fast turnaround, clean cuts, good pacing instincts.
• Solid graphic design foundation in Photoshop and Illustrator — image retouching, compositing, layout, typography.
• Hands-on experience with at least one AI creative tool (Midjourney, Adobe Firefly, Runway ML, ElevenLabs, Pika, or similar).
• A strong portfolio with at least 3–5 examples of video or motion work — preferably ads or social content, not just showreels.
• Good enough written English to understand creative briefs, give feedback, and communicate with the growth team without friction.
• Bonus: experience creating content in the parenting, gifting, children's education, or e-commerce space.
• Bonus: familiarity with CapCut templates, Canva Pro, or Figma for rapid-fire asset production.

Tool stack you'll use

• After Effects
• Premiere Pro
• Photoshop
• Illustrator
• Midjourney / Firefly
• Runway ML
• CapCut
• Canva Pro
• Figma
• DaVinci Resolve

What we offer

• Fully remote — async-friendly, with daily syncs with the growth hacker.
• Creative freedom within brand guidelines — we want ideas, not just execution.
• A product that's genuinely visual and emotional — personalised children's books are a content creator's dream brief.
• Room to grow into a Creative Lead as the team expands and a permanent position with salary growth and equity.

How this role works day-to-day

• You'll receive weekly briefs from the Growth Hacker specifying the platform, objective (awareness vs conversion), format, and any copy or messaging direction. You'll produce the assets, share drafts for a single round of feedback, and deliver final files in the correct specs.
• We aim for a 3 day turnaround on most assets, with faster 24-hour turnarounds on time-sensitive paid ad tests.
