We’re looking for a multi-faceted candidate with strong storytelling capabilities, who’s a social media expert with a keen pulse on current content trends—especially on Instagram and TikTok. This candidate must be a self-starter, who’s just as comfortable bringing innovative ideas to the team as well as executing them.

This role will serve as a creator in the office or on location; experience in videography and editing for social content on iPhone or cinema cameras is a must.

The Social Media Video Editor will work closely alongside an in-house team of art directors and producers. This role will report into the Art Director.

  • Shoot and edit impactful, social-first content for both Instagram, TikTok, and other emerging social channels
  • Ability to execute innovative social media concepts for TikTok and Instagram Reels
  • Expertise working with mixed media for Instagram Reels and Stories (stills, design, video) while utilizing standard industry software and practices
  • Must have excellent communication skills and the ability to work in cooperation with both internal creative team and external vendors.
  • Experience with Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, and Frame.io is required
  • Experience shooting on cinema cameras and other on-set equipment is a plus
  • Experience with photography and light retouching is a plus

REQUIREMENTS:

  • 2-3+ years of content experience in an ad/brand/social agency setting
  • Must have a portfolio with relevant work examples
  • Has a collaborative spirit and strong storytelling skills
  • Always pays attention to detail and project deadlines
  • Ability to adapt and manage multiple projects, shoots, and priorities

We welcome you to apply, even if you don’t check all the boxes. Our passion is scouting life-long learners who are driven by curiosity, and who feel connected to our brands and share our desire to make an impact. We’re always seeking bright new talent who leverage their unique experiences to discover, grow and evolve with our teams.
