Depending on the setup, this may also include uploading and posting content to TikTok with guidance from our side.
The concept may sit under a standalone TikTok identity rather than an obvious agency brand, so we are looking for someone who understands how to create content that feels natural to the platform rather than overly polished or corporate.

Additional notes
We are not looking for a large studio or expensive production setup. We are looking for one reliable freelance creator who can think creatively, move quickly and help run the process end to end.
There is potential for ongoing work for the right person.
