Description
  • As a video editor (m/f/d) you are responsible for the complete film production – from filming to the finished edited clip.
  • You film and edit interviews for YouTube, website/app and social media, with technical precision and a feel for what works online.
  • You approach the editing editorially: you recognize the key moments of a conversation, instead of just cutting technically cleanly.
  • You coordinate closely with the Head of Video and the respective Social Media Editor to ensure that each topic gets the best possible presentation.
  • In the long term, you will also take on your own formats – from the initial shooting idea to the finished edit.

What you bring

  • Proficient use of a common video editing program, ideally DaVinci Resolve, or the willingness to quickly learn it (editing, color correction, audio mixing, subtitles)
  • Basic knowledge of motion graphics/lower thirds (After Effects or Canva)
  • A flair for design in thumbnails and covers (Figma or Canva)
  • Filming skills: Camera (Blackmagic, Sony, Canon), iPhone, lighting
  • The ability to extract precisely the 3-5 moments from a 45-minute interview that can stand on their own.
  • A sure sense of the difference between a teaser cut (cliffhanger) and a standalone cut that tells the story to its conclusion.
  • The knowledge that YouTube Shorts follow a completely different attention curve than Reels or TikTok
  • Several years of journalistic experience, a journalism degree or an internship are advantageous.
  • Great enthusiasm for online journalism and identification with independent, relevant journalism
  • An organized work style with good time management, even when things get hectic.
  • Looking for a dynamic environment – ​​switching between the office, a media ship, and live events is not a detour for you, but part of the job.
  • Proactive self-initiative, equally strong on one's own as in close collaboration with the team.
