  • Execute green screen edits and branded visuals with precision.

Features & Creative Production

  • Film and edit deep-dive documentaries and investigative features.
  • Work closely with the Content & Production Lead to experiment with new creative series and formats.
  • Bring editorial scripts to life with compelling shot selection, sequencing, and story rhythm.

Collaboration & Workflows

  • Coordinate with Visual Editor and Editors to align branding and polish.
  • Maintain file naming, metadata standards, and a clean, accessible archive.

Deliverables

  • High-quality edits of studio shoots, podcast interviews, location shoots, and features.
  • Professional green screen outputs and branded interview edits.
  • Short-form social media adaptations optimised for growth and engagement.
  • Well-organised archives of footage, projects, and exports.
  • Consistent delivery of creative features and productions as agreed with management.

What We're Looking For

  • Proven experience in videography and video editing (portfolio required).

Why Join Us?
