You will be based in Cairo, predominantly working for clients based in the UK. You will run Izmi's social media accounts across Facebook, You Tube, Tik Tok, and Instagram. Izmi is the parent company to a restaurant content creation brand in London, and you will also be supporting with video editing for this brand. As we grow, we're onboarding monthly retainer clients, whose accounts you will manage on a day-to-day basis.
We are looking for a Video Editor and Social Media Manager to take raw footage from our videographer and turn it into scroll-stopping short-form video content. As you progress, you'll have creative control and manage our clients' social media accounts entirely.
This is a desk-based editing and publishing role. You won't be required to attend client shoots or visit venues. You'll work closely with our team on the ground to direct content and run the account strategy day to day. You will be reporting to our social media executive and as we grow, you will have the opportunity to build your own team to support you.
