  • Strong sense of storytelling, pacing, and visual composition across various content formats.
  • Experience editing short-form and long-form content across social, digital, and commercial platforms.
  • Ability to creatively manipulate footage, integrate motion graphics, and enhance edits through color and sound design.
  • Strong collaboration skills, working closely with directors, designers, and strategists to refine creative execution.
  • Excellent attention to detail with a passion for pixel-perfect edits and a polished final product.
  • Strong time management skills with the ability to work on multiple projects simultaneously and meet tight deadlines.
  • Natural listener with a desire to grow, learn, and positively impact the work and team around you.
  • A proactive and creative mindset, with a strong understanding of visual storytelling and audience engagement.
  • Confidence and professional expertise regarding best practices across all social platforms.
  • Experience mentoring junior team members is a plus.

Responsibilities

  • Edit high-quality video content, crafting engaging narratives that align with the creative vision and client objectives.
  • Work closely with Creative Directors, Strategists, and Motion Designers to refine storytelling and execution.
  • Select and arrange footage, refine pacing, and ensure seamless transitions to create compelling visual stories.
  • Incorporate music, sound design, color correction, and motion graphics to enhance the final product.
  • Adapt content for multiple platforms and formats while maintaining consistency and impact.
  • Manage feedback rounds, revisions, and final approvals to ensure high-quality and timely deliveries.
  • Stay up-to-date on industry trends and best practices in editing, post-production workflows, and video formats.
