Description

Do you want to put your vast knowledge of random pop culture and online trends to use? Do you wish your endless TikTok scrolling counted as “research”? Would you rather edit a video than write a cover letter? Then you may be perfect for this role. Betches Media is looking for a Video Editor to add to our team!

The ideal candidate is a highly skilled video podcast editor who is proficient in editing both long-form and short-form podcast content across Betches Media platforms via Spotify, YouTube, Instagram & TikTok. You will play a major part in the post production of short form social media edits and longform multicam podcast edits, as well as the post production of podcast audio.

Our video podcast editors will work hand-in-hand with producers to develop dynamic content with an eye towards social, and should be excited to infuse their edits with as much creativity as possible. They also should be knowledgeable about the video podcast space, and what works across video platforms. Our editors will also work closely with our social and motion graphics team to ensure our end product is both high-quality and primed for virality.

This role will report into the Associate Director of Production.

• Work closely with the Associate Director and Senior Editor to prioritize workflows, follow the post-production calendar closely, and keep projects on schedule.

• Work closely with a Producer on a number of projects to align on editorial and creative output of projects.

Qualifications
