You will also help us create content for our owned social channels, including Meta and TikTok.
What You’ll Accomplish
CREATE: VIDEO & MOTION - Concept, design, and produce new video ads on an ongoing basis, primarily for use in paid social campaigns, to help promote the Hydrow brand and drive awareness, consideration, and purchase with prospects.

Who You Are
A SKILLED MOTION & GRAPHIC DESIGNER You know your way around After Effects, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, Photoshop, Figma. Experience with Cinema4D and Final Cut Pro is a bonus. You feel comfortable designing and editing in these tools without guidance.
CREATIVE You have a desire to build projects from inception to completion and find new ways to improve the content-creation process. You have experience in creating engaging visual content that captures the spirit of a brand. You have a vision for new content, but are also able to edit existing content into clips that are right for paid and owned platforms, particularly social media platforms.
CROSS-FUNCTIONAL COLLABORATOR You will build relationships both internally and externally. You will form relationships internally with all departments, from analytics, marketing and senior leadership. You have the opportunity to build a great consumer experience, driving sales and engagement through the work you design and create.
COMFORTABLE WITH AMBIGUITY You are agile and are able to deal with ambiguity as stories and content come to light through the on-site content and editing process and are comfortable in a remote work environment. Even though we are headquartered in Boston, remote work is ok.
We know the confidence gap and imposter syndrome can get in the way of meeting exceptional candidates, for that reason if you don't meet 100% of the job description, that's okay! Please don’t hesitate to apply — we’d love to hear from you.
