About Flightstory

We are a media and investment company, and we are on a mission to elevate the stories, build the communities, and support the founders that inspire a happier, healthier humanity. We scale creator-led media, ventures and communities.

Your Mission

To drive the growth and performance of FlightStory’s social channels by crafting, editing and optimising short-form video content that captivates audiences and fuels platform-native virality. Sitting at the intersection of editorial creativity and data-driven strategy, this role is responsible for repurposing our short form content for different platforms, as well as turning long-form content into high-performing, revenue generating social clips across Facebook, YouTube Shorts and Snapchat.

Outcomes

  • Within 6–12 months, you will have grown FlightStory’s short-form reach across platforms significantly, consistently delivered high-impact edits that perform above benchmark, and established a repeatable content engine that feeds our social growth and monetisation goals.
  • Your edits will become synonymous with FlightStory’s distinctive storytelling style and set the standard for creator-led new media.

The Ideal Candidate

  • You’re a hybrid creator–part storyteller, part strategist.
  • You know how to craft a clip that grabs attention in the first 3 seconds, and you understand what drives watch time, shares, and saves.
  • You can turn around several edits a day.
  • You have experience editing content for high-growth channels and can blend fast-paced execution with creative excellence.
  • You’re obsessed with social trends, deeply analytical, and thrive in a collaborative, fast-moving environment

We're Looking For

  • Expertise in short-form social video editing and storytelling with a deep understanding of pacing, structure, and emotion.
  • Strong grasp of platform algorithms and best practices across TikTok, Instagram, Shorts, Facebook, and Snapchat.
  • Ability to analyse performance data and quickly adapt editing strategies to improve results.
