CONTENT CREATOR / VIDEO EDITOR AT FERNHILL DIGITAL CONSULTING | CONTENT CREATOR JOBS IN LAGOS

About Company:

Fernhill Digital Group is a Nigerian digital transformation and strategic communications agency helping brands build sustainable growth through systematic content strategy and creative excellence. We combine creativity, technology, and strategy to deliver measurable business results for our clients across restaurant, fashion, and professional services sectors.

Job Description:

Fernhill is seeking a prolific Content Creator to serve as the visual engine for our diverse client portfolio. In the Nigerian digital landscape, attention is the ultimate currency, and short-form video is the primary vehicle for trade. This role is designed for a "Visual Alchemist", a creative self-starter with 2–3 years of experience who can take a raw brief and transform it into high-impact, scroll-stopping content for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube.

Your mission is to bridge the gap between brand strategy and viral engagement. You will be responsible for the entire production lifecycle: from conceptualizing "day-in-the-life" narratives and setting up professional lighting on-location to executing high-speed edits with trending audio. If you possess a "Story-First" mindset and the technical grit to manage multiple client accounts in a fast-paced agency environment, we want you to shape our digital narratives.

Requirements:

1. End-to-End Video Architecture

• Multimodal Production: Shoot and edit high-fidelity short-form content (9:16) for Reels and TikTok, as well as long-form brand storytelling for YouTube and web.

• Technical Directing: Handle all on-location logistics, including lighting setups, audio recording, and directing non-professional talent (business owners/customers) with clarity and patience.

• Platform Optimization: Master the nuances of aspect ratios and platform-specific engagement triggers, ensuring every cut and transition is optimized for its destination.

2. Creative Strategy & Trend Engineering

• Shot-List Strategy: Translate creative briefs into actionable production plans and shot lists that balance entertainment value with the client’s commercial objectives.

• Trend Adaptation: Actively "scan" the Nigerian social media landscape to spot viral formats early, adapting them authentically for diverse industries (Fashion, F&B, Lifestyle).

• Scripting & Copywriting: Develop video scripts that maintain a cohesive brand voice while leveraging high-engagement "hooks" and calls-to-action (CTAs).

3. Workflow Synergy & Asset Governance

• Collaborative Execution: Work closely with Creative Strategists and Social Media Managers to ensure content aligns with overarching campaign KPIs.

• Digital Asset Management: Maintain a rigorous filing system for raw footage, B-roll libraries, and project files, ensuring all assets are easily accessible for future iterations.

• Feedback Integration: Incorporate client and internal feedback with high velocity, maintaining creative vision while meeting brand alignment standards.

Qualifications and Skills:

Professional Profile

• Experience: 2 – 3 years in video content creation or social media production, preferably within an agency setting.

• Software Mastery: (MANDATORY) Expert-level proficiency in CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro, or Final Cut Pro.

• Technical Depth: Solid understanding of mobile and professional camera composition, lighting, and audio recording.

• Industry IQ: Deep knowledge of the Nigerian social media landscape and what resonates with local audiences.

Core Competencies

• Visual Storytelling: Ability to turn everyday "Behind-the-Scenes" moments into compelling brand narratives.

• Operational Agility: Thriving in a hybrid work environment (Yaba-based office days + Remote) while managing multiple projects.

• Resourcefulness: Delivering professional results even when shooting in non-ideal environments or with limited equipment.
