Junior Video Creative

This is a consumer fintech startup, and you will be working with serial entrepreneurs who have built strong consumer brands and innovative products. We value extreme ownership, clear communication, a strong sense of craftsmanship, and the desire to create lasting work and work relationships. Yes, you can build an exciting business AND have real-life real-customer impact.

We’re looking for a highly efficient Junior Video Creative to join Kikoff’s growing Creative team. Ideally, you’re a post-production ace who can pump out video edits at lightning speed, but you also love to learn while doing—and thrive wearing many creative hats. In addition to owning the video editing tasks (primarily working from paper edits to churn out high-performance video ads), you’ll also work on productions, help concept paid social content, and aid in day-to-day creative project management tasks.

Our team is hungry, and scaling quickly. We’re a data-driven company, which means performance matters just as much as aesthetics. If you’re looking to play a key role in building out our ground-floor creative machine—and learn more in a year than most do in five—you’ve come to the right place.
