- Collaborate with the Creative Director and production team to ensure alignment from edit through delivery.
- Stay current on evolving platform requirements, editing tools, and video best practices.
What We’re Looking For:
- 2+ years of hands-on video editing or post-production experience (agency, freelance, or internship experience welcome).
- Strong editorial judgment, pacing, and storytelling instincts.
- Ability to own projects independently and manage details without heavy oversight.
- Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail across files, timelines, and deliverables.
