GMGN Labs is a start-up digital marketing agency specialising in emerging tech working with some of the world’s biggest brands. We are obsessed with immersive storytelling that harnesses the power of social media and emerging technologies.


We speak the language of the internet, and a big part of your job will be translating a client’s message into a visual story that resonates on the right platform.


We’re looking for a talented and driven individual who has prior experience in executing high-quality video edits across multiple platforms. We’d also like you to be nice. That’s a non-negotiable.


You’ll be working in exciting new and emerging industries, as well as developed verticals from sport & gaming, to fashion & entertainment. Every detail counts as we execute strategies that innovate and push boundaries.


As a Video Editor, you will:


\t•\tEdit a variety of video content for clients across entertainment, fashion, e-commerce, tech, gaming, and sports sectors.

\t•\tWork closely with our creative and content teams to create engaging, platform-specific edits for social media, digital campaigns, and web.

\t•\tDevelop a deep understanding of the client’s vision and story to translate it into compelling video content.

\t•\tCollaborate with the creative team and other departments to ensure consistent brand messaging and tone across all video content.

\t•\tOrganise and manage video assets, ensuring seamless post-production workflow, from editing to final delivery.

\t•\tAdd motion graphics, captions, and visual effects to enhance storytelling, as needed.

\t•\tStay updated on video trends, techniques, and best practices across different social media and digital platforms.

\t•\tEnsure all videos meet platform-specific requirements in terms of format, resolution, and length.

\t•\tProvide suggestions and creative input during planning phases for future shoots and campaigns.


Skills and Qualifications


\t•\tMust be fun & nice - we like fun & nice people.

\t•\tMust be hungry (to learn, progress, and win), not for food - if you’re hungry for food, we can send care packages.

\t•\tMust have a keen eye for storytelling through video, with attention to detail and a passion for creating compelling visuals.

\t•\tExperience as a Video Editor or a similar role in a digital marketing agency or production house.

\t•\tExpertise in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and other video editing software.

\t•\tFamiliarity with video requirements for social media platforms like X, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, etc.

\t•\tAbility to manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet deadlines.

\t•\tKnowledge of color grading, sound design, and post-production workflows.

\t•\tStrong knowledge of the creator economy and social media trends.


Kinda Good To Have But Don’t Cry If Ya Don’t


\t•\tExperience in entertainment marketing / working with large sports brands / teams / leagues / gaming marketing / game publishers / toy companies.

\t•\tDegree/qualification in film production, media, digital marketing, or a related field.

\t•\t6+ years of experience in a video editing role within a creative environment.


Perks & Benefits


  • Hybrid Working: We operate within a culture of trust. You have autonomy. Work from home or the office. Just make sure this doesn’t impact upon the extremely high standards we have! We ask that you’re in the office at least 2 days per week to have facetime with the team! 
  • Flexi-hours: Our hours are 9am - 6pm but, providing you’re available for calls and meetings as necessary, when you work those is up to you! We do ask that you are online and available between 10am - 4pm consistently though.
  • Holiday: We give 25 days annual leave on top of public holidays! We also give you your Birthday off because… well, it’s your Birthday! Eat some cake.
  • Loyalty Bonus: We want our people to stick around. For every year you’re with us, you’ll receive an extra day off! Lovely.
  • Team Days: Remote work can be lonely, so we’re making a promise to deliver team days where we can all meet up in person and have a load of fun. Nights out, social events, games, and wellness days… the choice is yours!
  • Christmas: Is a time for family, for rest. We’ll operate with a skeleton management team over the festive period to ensure all employees get the rest & chocolate-eating-time that they deserve.


Our Culture


Our founding team has done the agency grind. The sleepless nights. The ‘work hard, play hard’ hustle culture. Yes, it was fun. Yes, it gets results. But it’s not sustainable in the long term, and it’s not how we believe the agency model should work.


We strongly believe in being the best that we can be. We believe in delivering best-in-class work that we can all be proud of; that we can all derive fulfilment from. 


And to do this, we need a stable, inclusive, conscientious environment. One where rest isn’t frowned upon.


We’re ambitious though. We work hard. We want to be radically candid, deeply curious, and fast but considered. We always strive for self improvement, and we do it as a team. 


Our promise to you is to ensure that delivery of world-class work comes with world-class support, training, and rest.
