- Adapt content quickly based on performance and platform norms
Trends, Insights & Experimentation
- Track social and creator trends and adapt them for travel and money-saving content
- Test new formats, hooks, and angles and share learnings with the marketing team
- Monitor basic performance metrics (views, engagement, saves) to inform iteration
Community & UGC Support
- Support sourcing and coordination of authentic UGC from our users and community
- Assist with creator briefs and content guidelines where needed
- Help seed content into relevant travel groups, forums, and sub-cultures
About You

- Strong short-form video editing skills (CapCut, VN, Premiere, or similar)
- Good design instincts (Canva, Figma, Adobe tools)
- Strong understanding of what resonates with Australians and travel audiences
- Fast, curious, independent, and comfortable experimenting, learning, and iterating quickly
- Strong understanding of internet culture, platform humour, and emerging trends
