Key Responsibilities

Film authentic, short-form content for platforms like TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Meta Ads with a confident, friendly, and relatable presence
Serve as the on-camera face for ad concepts that range from storytelling to problem/solution to testimonial-style UGC
Write and refine your own scripts or VO copy that follows direct response media best practices
Transform raw ideas or briefs into watchable, scroll-stopping videos with strong hooks, a clear narrative, and a compelling CTA
Incorporate social trends and native platform behavior into your content to feel of the moment
Collaborate with creative and strategy teams to align content with performance data and business goals
Shoot lo-fi content on your phone and perform basic video edits using tools like CapCut or Premiere

Requirements

2-5 years experience in social-first content creation (for influencer work or DTC companies)
Strong on-camera presence with a portfolio of short-form video content (TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts, etc.)
Demonstrated ability to write or adapt ad copy, especially for VO or UGC-style content
Proficiency with editing tools like CapCut or Premiere Pro
Understanding of performance creative and what makes people watch, click, and convert
Comfortable filming from home or in natural environments that feel authentic and lifestyle-driven
Willingness to iterate quickly based on performance data and creative testing
Confident and comfortable on camera — warm, relatable, and polished without sounding like a spokesperson
A natural storyteller who knows how to speak directly to the viewer, build trust quickly, and get to the point
Tuned into what's trending on TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts—both in culture and content format
Familiar with direct-response content structure: hooks, problem/solution framing, social proof, strong CTAs
Organized, self-sufficient, and able to take a creative brief and run with it without heavy oversight

Nice to Have

You're a mom who's willing to show snippets of real life (kid-friendly meals, lunch-packing chaos, or snack drawer reveals) as part of your storytelling
Familiarity with creative performance metrics and testing frameworks (e.g., hook testing, A/B versioning)
Experience working with family, parenting, wellness, or lifestyle brands
