Role Summary

Studio DRIFT is looking for a Social Video Content Creator & Editor (Instagram & TikTok) to join our Amsterdam studio and create compelling short-form video content for our social channels.

This is a hands-on, camera and edit suite role. We are looking for someone who lives and breathes social media, thinks natively in Instagram Reels and TikTok, understands what stops a scroll, and knows how audiences consume content across these platforms. In this role you will conceptualise, film, edit, and publish engaging content, understanding the rhythm, pacing, and storytelling required to create social-first videos that capture attention and build an audience.

You will work with a combination of newly captured footage and Studio DRIFT’s rich archive of films, artworks, installations, exhibitions, and behind-the-scenes material to create and edit content that feels native to social platforms while staying true to DRIFT’s artistic identity.

You should be excited by the challenge of translating complex artistic ideas into engaging visual stories that resonate culturally and emotionally on social media.
