Job: Video Editor & Motion Graphics - Entertainment
Location: London - Hybrid
The Role
We’re looking for a creative video editor who’s confident across social platforms and loves being involved from concept to final cut. You’ll join a tight-knit team, editing entertainment-focused content from quick-turnaround trailers and teasers to cinematic recaps and scroll-stopping social clips.
This role is ideal for someone who loves storytelling through video, knows how to craft platform-native content, and thrives in a collaborative, idea-first environment.
Key Responsibilities
* Edit dynamic, social-first videos across platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
* Add motion graphics (e.g., lower thirds, animated subtitles, transitions) that enhance viewer engagement.
* Join creative brainstorms to help develop strong video-led content ideas.
* Design social assets and mockups for decks and presentations.
* Stay up-to-date with trends and editing best practices in the social/content space.
What We’re Looking For
* Proven experience in video editing, ideally in a creative or content-focused environment.
* Proficiency in Premiere Pro and After Effects.
* Comfortable in Photoshop for basic design needs.
* A strong editorial sense, understanding narrative, pacing, and tone.
* Flexibility to work from detailed briefs or take creative initiative from raw footage.
* A good feel for what works on different social platforms, not just specs, but tone and timing too.
* Bonus if you’re happy shooting on lo-fi devices (iPhones, etc.) or helping on small sets.
