The Video Editor will be responsible for transforming footage captured by our UK-based Content Marketing Executive and wider team into polished, engaging content for multiple platforms.
The purpose of the role is to allow our in-house team to spend more time planning and capturing content. Meanwhile, the Video Editor takes ownership of the time-consuming post-production process.
This is not an entry-level position. We are looking for an experienced editor who understands pacing,
storytelling, audience retention, platform requirements, and commercial marketing.

Short-form vertical videos for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and YouTube Shorts
Paid social media advertisements
Product launch and promotional videos
Customer testimonials and case studies
Exhibition and event footage
Internal and corporate video content
Re-edited and repurposed content from our existing video library
Key Responsibilities
Video editing and post-production
Edit raw footage into professional, engaging and well-paced videos.
Take ownership of the full post-production process, including footage selection, sequencing, sound,
music, graphics, subtitles and final export.
Work from scripts, briefs, brand assets and instructions supplied by the client marketing team.
Improve the structure and pacing of content where necessary, rather than simply assembling clips
in the order supplied.
Maintain consistent audio levels, colour correction and overall production quality.
Source appropriate royalty-free music, sound effects and supporting assets where required.
Create subtitles and captions suitable for each platform.
Export videos in the correct formats, resolutions and aspect ratios.
Long-form content
Edit regular YouTube videos, including product demonstrations, technical explanations,
behind-the-scenes content and industry-focused videos.
Create engaging openings and maintain viewer interest throughout longer videos.
Identify opportunities to improve storytelling, pacing and audience retention.
Add relevant supporting footage, graphics, text and product information.
Produce revisions based on feedback from the client marketing team.
Short-form and social content
Repurpose long-form videos and existing footage into short-form content.
Identify strong hooks, useful moments, entertaining sections and standalone clips.
Create platform-specific edits rather than publishing the same version everywhere.
Produce content designed for Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook and YouTube Shorts.
Use captions, graphics and pacing that suit mobile-first viewing.
Build a reliable library of reusable short-form content from existing client footage.
Advertising content
Create paid advertising videos from new and existing content.
Produce multiple creative variations for testing, including different hooks, lengths, messaging and calls to action.
Understand that advertising content must communicate clearly and quickly.
Edit videos around a defined product benefit, customer problem or marketing objective.
Work with the marketing team to adapt successful organic content into advertising creative.
Content repurposing
Review client’s existing video and asset library to identify content that can be reused.
Turn previously published footage into new videos, advertisements, short-form posts and compilations.
Repackage content for different audiences, products and markets.
Avoid making recycled content feel repetitive or outdated.
Brand integration
Learn and consistently apply client brand guidelines.
Use the correct fonts, logos, colours, graphics and product terminology.
Video Editor – Job Description
Develop a good understanding of client products and the construction equipment industry.
Ensure videos feel recognisably client, regardless of platform or content format.
