About the Role
This is an editor role with meaningful scope — split between supporting international marketing campaigns and delivering platform-native social content. Sitting within the Global Brand Creative team and reporting to the Director of Creative Operations, the Video Editor will own the edit across a broad range of formats: TVC, DOOH, social, digital, and market-specific adaptations. This is not a support role. The editor here carries real creative accountability, from brief to final delivery, across two high-visibility workstreams simultaneously.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead editing of international marketing content across TVC, DOOH, social, digital, and market-specific requests, ensuring alignment with global strategy and regional requirements
- Partner with international marketing and creative teams to bring concepts from brief to delivery with precision and creative integrity
- Incorporate graphics, animations, sound effects, and motion enhancements consistent with brand style and current platform trends
- Deliver final video files across all required formats and specs, optimized for international distribution across multiple channels and placements
- Maintain clean project files and consistent version control across international video assets
- Lead editing of social-first content optimized for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and paid media
- Collaborate with art directors, designers, creative producers, content creators, and marketers to execute on creative briefs across both workstreams
- Manage concurrent timelines across international and social projects, proactively flagging prioritization concerns before they become blockers
- Bring innovative editing techniques and visual approaches to keep content fresh and competitive
Qualifications
- 2 years of experience editing for marketing or branded content, ideally within a lifestyle brand, post-production house, or creative agency
- Strong portfolio demonstrating narrative storytelling, pacing, transitions, and motion — with clear evidence of platform-native social editing
- Proficiency in Premiere Pro or Final Cut required
- Experience editing content across product, value, cultural activation, and lifestyle formats
- Solid understanding of content best practices, formats, and specs across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and paid media
- Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple concurrent workstreams in a fast-moving environment
- Comfortable receiving and implementing feedback across multiple stakeholders and creative iterations
- Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, and CapCut is an asset
