We’re reimagining retail and believe the higher the risk, the greater the reward.

The video editor will join a growing creative and marketing team based in London where they will have the opportunity to work across several different video formats editing content for:

• Social content – organic & paid ads, Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube, etc
• Campaign content – narrative-led hero films
• Retail window screens - up and down the country & Europe
• Branded content & business development materials – yearly showreels

As the editor, you’ll manage material such as footage, audio, sound effects, graphics, and special effects to produce a final film or video product. This is a key role in the post-production process and your keen eye for detail will determine the quality and delivery of the finished result.

To help bring life some edits we need someone who has a base understanding of motion graphics and design to implement into videos, helping elevate the content and giving it a premium feel. We’d also like someone who has a basic understand of audio editing to help sound design certain projects and fix audio issues.

This role will work in close partnership with the Lead Editor & wider social team editing footage that over the past two years that has included top-tier athletes such as Lionel Messi, Bruno Fernandez, Jack Grealish, Mason Mount, Conor Benn, Emma Radacanu, Bernardo Silva, Carl Frampton, Ellen White to name a few!!
