We're looking for a content-savvy, strategy-driven creative to help on short-form content across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.

You'll be responsible for everything end-to-end: editing videos, designing graphical posts, publishing content, analysing performance, and most importantly, making content that grows fast.

Role:

We're looking for a talented and experienced Content Producer & Strategist to join our creative team. In this role, you'll own end-to-end short-form content creation for Little Pixies Instagram, TikTok and Facebook pages. That includes editing videos, designing graphical posts, publishing content, analysing performance. You'll report to one of the founders and collaborate closely with the Little Pixies team. This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in fast-paced environments, and loves making content that actually moves the needle.

Who You Are:

You know short-form inside and out

Deep knowledge of Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook. What works, what doesn't, and how to stay ahead of trends.

You've done this before

Proven experience growing social accounts and driving results through content creation.

You've got an eye for design

Strong design skills and attention to detail, especially with graphics.

You can edit like a pro

Comfortable using video editing tools (Premiere Pro, CapCut, Final Cut, etc.) and image editing tools like Canva or Photoshop.

You think strategically

You're not just creative, you think in systems. You're proactively looking at what's working, and adjust based on what moves the needle.

You can juggle multiple projects

You know how to manage timelines, meet deadlines, and still produce great work under pressure.

You obsess over details

From captions to graphics, you care about getting it right and catching the little things others miss.

You communicate clearly

Whether you're writing, giving feedback, or sharing a performance update, you're clear and easy to work with.

You're adaptable

Platforms change fast. You're curious, flexible, and willing to evolve with them.

You've got experience

4+ years creating social media content that performs.

Bonus: You use AI tools

Familiar with tools like Runway, Google VEO/Flow, Claude/ChatGPT or similar? It's a plus, not a dealbreaker.

What You'll Be Doing:

Create standout content daily

Produce 2-3 short-form videos and/or graphics a week for Little Pixies social channels.

Stay ahead of trends

Keep a close eye on what's working across platforms and apply those trends in a way that fits Little Pixies voice.

Find ways to work smarter

Test and recommend new tools (like AI or automation) that help us move faster without losing quality.

Own platform strategy (especially Instagram)

Plan and execute strategies that boost engagement and growth -- with a focus on Instagram.

Edit high-quality short-form clips

Turn raw footage into scroll-stopping short videos made specifically for TikTok and Reels.

Design with purpose

Create sharp, on-brand visuals from carousels and infographics to simple text-based posts; especially for Instagram.

Track performance + improve

Regularly review what's working, share quick reports with insights, and recommend tweaks to the content plan.

Be our trend translator

Help the team understand emerging content styles, editing approaches, and creative tools.

Collaborate often

Join team calls, brainstorm sessions, and analysis reviews. Your voice and ideas matter here.

Evolve our formats

Help us refresh and refine content buckets based on what's trending, what's performing, and what the brand needs.

Manage collabs and cross-posting

Coordinate collaboration posts between influencers, and identify smart collaboration opportunities with other influencers.

Keep systems tight

Document your workflows so others can step in when needed, and contribute to building scalable content creation systems.

Stay organised

Maintain clean files and SOPs in ClickUp, Jira, and Google Drive so teammates can always find what they need.

Keep everyone in the loop

Share updates on timelines, deliverables, and any blockers. No one's left guessing.

The Results You Bring:

Content Runway & Output

Maintain a consistent content runway for Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

Keep our content buckets dynamic

Maintain a clear mix of content types: educational, inspirational, and trend-based, so we never run dry or go off-brand.

Deliver weekly content ideas

Add 15-30 fresh short-form ideas every week into our running doc to keep the team creatively fuelled.

Track what works and why

Build simple weekly reports on performance (views, watch time, shares, etc.) and offer insights we can actually use.

Make sure we stay on-brand

Ensure every asset feels aligned with the look, tone, and quality of Little Pixies brands.

Balance value and virality

Help us combine meaningful messages with attention-grabbing trends, humour, or memes without losing substance.

Respect the calendar
