About Mob
Mob is on a mission to create a world of home cooks, because cooking changes lives.
It is the best way to eat throughout the week. It improves your health. It lifts your mood. It saves you money.
We're building the world's best recipe app, making weekly cooking fun, easy and delicious. It will take the friction away from home cooking, so anyone can become an accomplished home cook.
It took us 24 months to reach 100k subscribers, and just seven months to double that to 200k. Our next goal: scale to over 1 million users across the globe.
Behind it all is a creative, data-driven team that collaborates to build experiences that ladder up to our mission. As a fast-paced startup, our core value is simple: make it happen, succeed together.
What You'll Be Doing
Key Responsibilities
We're looking for a Video Editor (Commercial) to create scroll-stopping short-form video that performs across Mob's channels and powers our commercial partnerships.
- Edit and deliver short-form videos that perform across Mob's channels
- Shoot in Mob's studio kitchen (around 20% of your time) and at external shoots, capturing strong beauty shots with clear creative intent
- Own videos end-to-end through post-production, from ingesting and organising footage to final delivery against client, platform and formatting specs
- Own the post-production workflow, using systems to organise files in a clear way
- Use performance data and platform trends to sharpen every creative decision
- Collaborate with Food, Content, Production, and the wider Commercial team to hit the brief
- Prepare thoroughly for PPMs and shoots, and raise quality risks and pick-ups early
