Video Editor

About the Role

We are searching for a Video Editor who can craft distinctive property videos that stand out in a saturated market. Unlike typical drone-heavy and music-drenched clips, we aim for calm, confident content that captures and retains viewer attention naturally.

Work Environment and Collaboration

You will partner directly with our Social Media Manager and advisors. Your sources will include phone footage from property viewings, advisor interviews, stock libraries, and your own captured b-roll. Your main output will be short-form vertical videos, alongside occasional longer format pieces for YouTube and presentations.

Key Objectives

• Create sharp, engaging short-form vertical videos tailored for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts, adhering to a weekly schedule.
• Produce less frequent but impactful longer videos such as explainers, interviews, and recaps.
• Establish and maintain a cohesive and recognizable visual style encompassing colors, typography, and motion effects.
• Source and responsibly license music, b-roll, and other stock footage to enhance projects.
• Organize and manage project files, version control, and deliveries efficiently while ensuring deadlines and editorial calendars are met.

Qualifications and Skills Required

• A minimum of three years’ experience editing short-form social videos within brands, agencies, or studios.
• A compelling reel demonstrating editing skills and style is essential.
• Proficiency in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve; basic After Effects skills for animation work.
• Excellent sense of timing, sound design, and effective on-screen captions suitable for muted playback.
• Dependable communication skills with the ability to deliver work independently meeting deadlines.

Preferred Extras

• Ability to shoot with phone cameras for quick turnaround content from property viewings.
• Skills in light color grading and audio remediation.
• Experience in sectors like property, luxury, hospitality, or travel is a bonus.
