Video Editor – Documentary, Corporate & Social Media Content (Full-Time / Part-Time)
Location: Remote
Commitment: 20–40 Hours/Week
Start Date: ASAP
Experience Required: 5+ Years (Senior Level)
Time Zone: Must be available to work in the UK time zone
We’re seeking a senior-level, highly creative video editor to join our team and take the lead on fast-turnaround documentary and corporate projects. This is an exciting long-term opportunity for someone with a sharp eye for visual storytelling, who is also highly in tune with the fast-paced world of social media content creation.
You’ll be editing a mix of:
- Short-form fighting documentaries (4–6 mins)
- TikTok / Instagram Reels (30–90 sec high-impact edits)
- Corporate event trailers & promos
- Interview-driven short documentaries (5–10 mins)
What We’re Looking For
• Fast-Paced & Trend-Savvy:
You must understand trending social formats and soundtrack styles. Your editing should feel dynamic, fresh, and emotionally engaging.
• Strong Storytelling:
Especially with interviews. You should be confident extracting narratives from talking-heads and structuring a gripping mini-documentary from scratch.
• Cinematic Colour Grading:
You must know how to take flat footage and turn it into high-end visual content that holds up on both large screens and mobile.
• Strong Sound Design:
Natural audio layering, atmospheric build-ups, punchy transitions, and music syncing must be second nature to you.
• Creative Freedom:
We’re not looking for editors who wait for hand-holding. You’ll be given direction, examples, and footage—but we want you to bring your style and edge too.
