We’re looking for a Senior Video Editor who can craft engaging video content across formats and platforms. From brand films and digital video ads to social media reels and long-forms, you’ll bring stories to life with sharp editing, motion graphics, sound design, and post-production polish.

While your core responsibility will be editing, you should also have a good understanding of videography to support shoots when needed. You’ll work closely with our in-house creatives - writers, designers, and DOPs to ensure the final output is not just visually appealing but also aligned with business objectives.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit video content across various formats.

• Interpret scripts and creative briefs to build engaging visual narratives.
  

• Support on video shoots when needed (camera operation, lighting setup, framing).
  

• Add motion elements (text overlays, animated graphics, effects) to enhance storytelling.
  

• Ensure platform-specific edits are optimized for YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, etc.
  

• Maintain organized project files, backups, and versioning workflows.
  

• Collaborate with the creative team on timelines, creative direction, and revisions.

• Edit raw footage into polished videos that align with project objectives, brand guidelines, and target audience preferences.

• Enhance videos with graphics, animations, sound effects, and music to elevate the overall production value.

Requirements

• 2–4 years of experience in video editing, preferably in an agency or content-focused brand setup.
  

• Proficiency in video editing software such as Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Final Cut Pro or similar programs.
  

• Solid understanding of post-production workflows, storytelling, pacing, and transitions.
  

• Experience with color grading, audio balancing, and creating platform-ready final exports.
  

• Basic knowledge of camera gear, lighting, and on-set best practices.
  

• Ability to take feedback constructively and make quick turnarounds.
  

• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to delivering high-quality work under tight deadlines.
  

• A portfolio showcasing a range of editing work across formats is mandatory.

• Flexibility to adapt to changing priorities and project requirements.

Nice-to-Have

• Familiarity with AI-based or other collaborative editing tools.
  

• Experience working in fast-paced environments with multiple deadlines.
  

• Knowledge of current trends in video formats, transitions, and digital storytelling.
