Job Description

Lucky Hustle is looking for a Video Editor who's more than just a cutter of clips. We're after a storyteller -- someone who can make a TikTok feel cinematic, a LinkedIn video feel scroll-proof, and a YouTube cut feel binge-worthy. If you live for pacing, sound design, bold transitions, and experimenting with generative AI, this is your next hustle.

Why Join Lucky Hustle?

Creative Playground:

Edit for brands that don't settle for boring. Every brief is a chance to play, experiment, and craft scroll-stopping stories.

Rocket-Fueled Growth:

Build your career in a growing agency with international clients and plenty of room to move up.

Team Vibes:

Collaborate with a crew that values creativity as much as craft, and pitches the weirdest (good) ideas.

Future Forward:

Explore how AI is reshaping editing, design, and storytelling.

Responsibilities:

Edit short-form and long-form content (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, and whatever platform drops next).

Bring creative ideas to life with slick animation, sharp cuts, and storytelling magic.

Adapt edits to match different brand vibes -- from sleek corporate to chaotic fun.

Deliver polished, platform-ready assets that stop the scroll.

Experiment with generative AI to push editing into bold, uncharted territory.

Details:

This is a permanent role with opportunities to grow as Lucky Hustle expands.

Hybrid role (office location:

Paulshof, Johannesburg).

Competitive remuneration (depending on experience).

REQUIREMENTS

Requirements:

1-3 years' experience as a Video Editor (agency experience a plus).

Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite -- especially Premiere Pro, After Effects, Media Encoder, Photoshop, Illustrator.

Strong skills in animation, motion graphics, and visual storytelling.

A reel/portfolio that proves you can make brands look good and feel relevant.

Hunger to learn, experiment, and stay ahead of social media trends.

Unicorn

Bonus points if you've dabbled in camera work, motion graphics, or meme culture.

Flair for AI-driven editing and new styles of visual storytelling.

If you're ready to cut, edit, and hustle -- send your CV, portfolio/showreel, and a short cover letter to recruitment@LuckyHustle.co.za
