Video Editor, Social Media (Contract)

Job description

COME JOIN US AT INTRO Intro is growing our team of amazing people who are on a mission to give everyone access to anyone, empowering each other to create a better world. Intro started in 2022 by first building a tool for the world’s top founders and experts, enabling their audiences from all over the world to be able to access them, jump on a live video call, and get personalized advice. We were (and still are) grateful to see that it was an INSTANT hit. Today, we have over 20k five star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ reviews, and the founders of Reddit, Zillow, Sweetgreen, DryBar, and 1k+ more all became partners, as well as advocates of our product, company, and mission. We then launched a marketplace, chat, subscriptions, and more, each leading to faster growth. We’re just getting started — the Intro of tomorrow will look very different than the Intro of today. In fact, we’re confident that Intro will become the go-to network for access, knowledge, and…(we can’t say the last part just yet), all over the world.
