The PITCH.

We are looking for an experienced and creative storyteller who can craft engaging content ranging from TVC’s to Instagram stories. You will be working alongside our Post Producer to shape films from the ground up as part of larger campaigns. VaynerMedia is a leader in social-first content, so you will need to have knowledge of trends and best practices in short form productions.

Because of the range of campaigns and productions we handle, you’ll have experience in different camera setups and formats and how to include them in production workflows. You will have experience in fast-paced environments and be able to push projects forward in a positive, creative manner.

Here’s where you come in…

  • Creative Editing, crafting engaging stories on a range of platforms primarily on Premiere Pro, including versioning for different aspect ratios.
  • Overall management of projects, often on tight turnarounds and tight deadlines. 
  • Ability to work on your own and as part of a team. You need to be well-organised, efficient and self-motivating.
  • Advise producers and creatives on production problems and spot problems ahead of time.
  • Working closely with producers, directors and account managers to ensure the smooth running of each project.
  • Keep updated with best practices and technical specifications on social platforms.

We treasure Personality and Experience yet we do know that these qualifications lead to what WE KNOW as a success:

  • Highly proficient in NLE editing, grading and audio mixing using Premiere Pro.
  • Experience in After Effects and how graphics fit into the post-production process.
  • Experience in Photoshop, Adobe Creative Suite and/or Illustrator.
  • Knowledge of Avid Media Composer, DaVinci Resolve and audio editing is advantageous.
  • Excellent communication skills with your colleagues to highlight challenges, offer creative solutions and make informed conclusions in a fast-paced environment.
  • Exceptional project management skills and the ability to work at a fast pace.
  • Ability to prioritise assets and deliverables. 
  • The capability to manage both internal and client feedback in order to exceed expectations.
  • In-depth understanding of the whole post-production process.
  • Ability to adapt your skills and approach to a broad range of project types from TVCs to social campaigns. 
  • Empathy with your co-workers in order to support them through the process.
  • Bring your passion to work with you. As part of the creative team, we’re looking for someone who can treat every edit as an opportunity to make the best advert it can be. 
  • Sharing your passion and skills and learning craft from others - adding your ambition to that of the agency.

What you SHOULD KNOW about VaynerMedia

Think “lab” and not “agency”. We get excited about solving business problems, not creating advertising for the sake of making advertising. Our entrepreneurship DNA runs deep. We’re willing to break rules, try new things, and test hypotheses if it means better understanding our craft. It’s fun!

We believe 100% that brands can be built on digital platforms and part of our model is built bottom up, flipping the traditional advertising model and process on its head. We don’t play to agency/industry norms and our culture and energy reflects that.

Our environment (and pace) feels much more like a start-up than most agencies you might be used to. Hopefully that, and the opportunity to collaborate with the talented and enthusiastic crew, work with big brands excites you, as it does us. We can’t wait to meet you.
