About Open Window Productions

Open Window Productions is a full-service video marketing company that helps small and mid-sized businesses, nonprofits, and growing brands tell compelling stories that drive results. We specialize in authentic testimonials, branded content, live streaming, informational/educational content, and ongoing creative partnerships through our Creative Content Plan retainer model.

The Role

We’re seeking a Video Editor who brings more than just technical chops. The ideal candidate is a creative problem solver with a sharp eye for storytelling, pacing, and rhythm—someone who can work independently but knows when to ask questions. You’ll be responsible for editing content across a wide variety of client industries, with an emphasis on authentic narratives and strategic messaging.

Responsibilities

Edit interview-based videos, brand stories, and social content using Adobe Premiere Pro
Collaborate with producers, videographers, and the creative team to meet client goals
Manage multiple projects under tight deadlines while maintaining a high level of polish
Organize and archive project files according to company workflow standards
Deliver drafts and final videos via Google Drive or Vimeo for client review and feedback
Stay up to date with editing trends, best practices, and AI-assisted tools

What We’re Looking For

3+ years of editing experience in a professional setting (agency, in-house, or freelance)
Proficiency with Adobe Creative Cloud (Premiere Pro is a must; AE and Photoshop are a plus)
Strong storytelling instincts, especially in editing testimonials or interview-based content
An eye for pacing, audio mixing, and subtle transitions that support—not overshadow—the message
Ability to receive feedback well and apply it quickly
Highly organized, self-directed, and reliable—especially when managing multiple deadlines
Bonus: Experience working with AI tools (e.g., transcription, auto-editing, rough cut generation)

What You Can Expect

A collaborative team that values creativity, purpose, and craftsmanship
A mixture of feel-good story telling and technical editing.
A strong culture of accountability, feedback, and continuous improvement
