We're looking for a Video Editor who thrives in a fast-paced creative environment and knows how to turn footage into content that actually performs — across live events, sports, and social.
You'll work closely with our creative and production team, taking raw footage from shoots and events and turning it into polished, audience-ready content across multiple platforms. This is a hands‑on role for someone who loves the edit, understands pacing and story, and can move fast without cutting corners.
This is a full‑time role, and we're looking to start ASAP, ideally in August.
What You'll Do
This role is focused on social media and website content — not broadcast or TV
Editing & Delivery
- Own the end‑to‑end editing process for live event and social content, from raw footage through to final delivery
- Produce edits, cut‑downs, and platform‑specific variations optimised for social channels (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube) and the OCD Studio website
- Confident working across various aspect ratios and formats (e.g. 9:16, 1:1, 16:9) to suit different platforms and placements
- Apply colour grading, sound mixing, captioning, and light motion graphics to deliver a polished final product
- Turn same‑day and next‑day event footage into fast‑turnaround recap content, working to tight deadlines
- Work closely with our production and creative team to translate briefs and shoot footage into content that hits the brief
- Take feedback well and iterate quickly across multiple projects at once
- Contribute creative ideas and stay on top of trends across social and event content
Asset & Workflow Management
- Organise and manage video assets so files are structured for easy reuse across projects
- Help maximise the value of each shoot by identifying scalable content opportunities from a single day's footage
Who You Are
- Proven video editing experience, ideally with a portfolio showing social‑first or sport and music led work
- Solid working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop)
- A good eye for pacing, story, composition, and colour, with an understanding of what performs well on social specifically
- Comfortable working to tight turnarounds, particularly around live events
- This is a social and web‑content role, not an ads or broadcast/TV role — so we're looking for someone whose experience and interest sits there rather than in longer‑form or agency ad production
- Highly organised, able to manage multiple deliverables at once
- A genuine interest in sports, culture, and live events
- Proactive, collaborative, and open to feedback
- UK‑based, with the right to work in the UK, and able to work from our North London studio Monday–Thursday
- Type: Full‑time, permanent
- Start date: ASAP — ideally August 2026
- Location: North London studio (on‑site, in‑person, Monday–Thursday; work from home on Fridays). Candidates must be UK‑based and able to work from the office — this is not a fully remote role
- Compensation: Annual salary band of £30,000 – £33,000
