  • Helping organize content files and uploads

Who You Are

  • Someone who genuinely loves TikTok and social media
  • Strong editing skills using CapCut, Canva, Adobe Premiere Rush or similar apps
  • A creative eye for lighting, angles and storytelling
  • Comfortable filming content in fast-moving environments
  • Beauty lovers, content creators, students in marketing, media or communications are encouraged to apply
  • Bonus points if you already create content yourself

Details
