Full time - Creative Video Editor & Animator

We are looking for an experienced, creative and passionate video editor & motion graphics designer who is skilled at working on multiple short form projects.

You will work on your own to creative briefs, and also with a self-shooting producer to deliver short form corporate video content. Working under the Visual team you will specifically work across the ICIS Market, so an interest in global commodities would be beneficial.

Ideally, we are looking for an individual who has experience across a wide range of media including digital and social advertising, live action and motion graphics. You'll need to be a confident communicator and be able to work independently, as you'll be asked to see projects through from pitch to delivery, being involved at every stage along the process. You'll have an impeccable eye for detail and the ability to interpret clients and creative needs instinctively.

You must be happy to work across a large range of content, including interviews, pieces to camera, town halls and conference footage, and we're also looking for someone who is also very skilled at Motion Graphics using a variety of software including After Effects.

The candidate will occasionally be required to contribute to the creative process ahead of a shoot, as well as tailor the editing style to the specific content. Some travel may be required if editing off site. Experience of working to specs and guidelines for YouTube, Facebook and Instagram is essential, as is a good working knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite.

This is a friendly and tight-knit team, so we'd like someone who is sociable, able to work in a team and is confident throwing ideas into the mix.
