Video Editor – Competitive Salary based on experience - Edinburgh, UK (Hybrid)
At Nordic Visitor, we’re not just another travel company. We’re redefining what travel content can be. Forget generic tourism videos. We’re launching a creative rebrand centered around authentic documentary storytelling, with raw, unscripted moments at the heart of everything we do. Picture the style of Patagonia films—real people, real places, and genuine stories across Europe. Our goal? To create compelling, cinematic content that makes people want to see the world, not just travel.
The Role
We’re looking for a hands‑on Video Editor to join us on this creative journey. This isn’t a typical 9-to‑5. You’ll be right at the heart of our transformation, working across all stages of the editing process. From shaping long‑form documentaries to creating punchy, shareable social cuts, you’ll have the chance to refine every aspect of storytelling.
What You’ll Do Day‑to‑Day
* Take story cuts and paper edits and turn them into finished, polished videos—from full‑length documentaries to social‑first edits for platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Meta campaigns.
* Work with raw, unscripted footage from across Europe, including destinations such as Iceland, Italy, Scotland, and Norway.
* Edit long‑form documentary content: shape narrative arcs, refine pacing, and ensure the content holds attention from start to finish.
* Chop long‑form content into short‑form pieces optimized for different platforms—creating variations that work just as well in 15 seconds as they do in 20 minutes.
* Use AI tools to streamline repetitive tasks like logging, transcription, and rough‑cut assembly, so you can focus on the moments that truly matter.
* Handle sound design and audio mixing to create a consistent, cinematic feel across all content.
* Create motion graphics and animations (After Effects or similar) to enhance storytelling.
* Design thumbnails and visual assets in Photoshop for YouTube and social media platforms.
* Collaborate with our creative team and EGC creators to develop and refine raw, authentic moments from our destinations.

* Contributory Pension Scheme
* 35 days annual leave pro rata for length of contract (inclusive of public holidays)
* 20 days work from anywhere in the world per year
* Bonus scheme
