This position works closely with the Senior Creative Media Director to set editing benchmarks, strengthen production processes, and keep the visual style consistent across all video output.
This is a hands-on leadership role with a strong day-to-day editing focus. In addition to building final video deliverables, the lead provides direction, support, and mentorship to other editors and creative teammates.

The ideal candidate also has advanced capability in storytelling, editing craft, color correction, audio work, and motion graphics, along with experience coaching or leading creative professionals or freelancers.
Success in this role requires the ability to juggle several priority projects at once, maintain excellent organization, communicate clearly, collaborate well, and make practical creative decisions that support business goals.
Nice-to-have background
Helpful experience includes leading post-production work for consumer packaged goods, health and wellness, or lifestyle brands; producing assets for Amazon, paid social, retail marketing, and ecommerce; and working with Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, or DaVinci Resolve.
