Glenfield, Leicester
We're looking for a dynamic video editor who has an unrivaled level of creativity, an eye for exciting and fresh concepts and a strong ability to deliver high quality work that really resonates.
You must be passionate about what you do and both confident and driven enough to create quality video content to be used in our clients' brand, digital and internal communication campaigns, social posts, paid adverts and at live events, including:
• Editing video content inclusive of promo packages, stings, animation packages, live edits and highlight reels.
• Creating bespoke motion graphics and animation (animated gifs, parallax video, visual effects)
• Live event support (on site editing, live-streaming).
• Working closely with Producers and Directors.
Alongside a strong creative vision and innovative can-do approach to the work, we will require the successful candidate to have good knowledge of editing and after effects software (adobe suite). It would be desirable, but not essential, to have knowledge of 2D / 3D animation software.
What you'll be doing (but not limited to):
• Editing video content both short and long form

• Good knowledge of after effects/motion graphics software (adobe suite).
• Experience of creating video content for different social media platforms with a good understanding of best practice.
• Have a confident, creative instinct as well as a technical eye - someone who is 'cool' rather than corporate.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with a strong attention to detail.
• Highly self-motivated, passionate and enthusiastic about your work, leading the way in video editing.
• Possess a strong work-ethos with a flexible and adaptable approach to work, taking ownership of daily tasks and carrying them out to a very high standard from start to finish.
• Confident when working under pressure with an ability to 'think on your feet' and problem solve.
• Dedication for delivering high standard of work and adding value to projects for our clients.
• Positive outlook and a professional and friendly manner.
• Experienced or willingness to learn colour grading.
