Video Editor (cum Designer)

Challenging lazy, template-driven work. We operate across two lines: creative-first digital performance agency (growth, performance, brand) corporate training and capability-building With clients span Pharma, SaaS, BFSI, and Healthcare (B2B + B2C). They are small & fast. Leadership: (ISB, ex-strategy + marketing effectiveness) Team includes veterans from top agencies and a stand-up comedian as our fractional Content Lead —because clarity, wit, and storytelling matter as much as CAC. They are creative-first, but make no mistake—they are deeply tech-savvy. They build custom dashboards, vibe-code solutions, and host internal hackathons. The Founder is a recognized trainer on GenAI applications. They just don't believe tech is the differentiator—it's table stakes, and we're better at it than most agencies out there. The difference? We use tech to amplify creative and strategy, not replace it.
