We have a rare opening for a mid-weight video editor to join our team in Sydney (Surry Hills)!

Junkee launched almost three years ago with a remit to shake up Australia’s pop culture landscape. With a fresh take and unique attitude, Junkee quickly established itself as one of the most interesting new voices in Australian media. Junkee was named Media Brand of the Year at the Mumbrella Awards in its first year online, and its funny, smart, ballsy and interesting take on news, film, politics, TV and more has seen it develop a strong following.

Now we’re on the hunt for a full-time video editor to help us grow our footprint. The ideal candidate will “think video” and be a digital native with an understanding of what video works best online, and how to create it. They will have a great eye for detail, a can-do attitude, and an ability to adapt quickly to new situations.

Key requirements for this role include:

  • A minimum of three years’ industry experience, strong communication skills and confidence developing creative concepts within a team
  • Relevant experience with Motion Graphics design
  • High competency with Adobe Creative Cloud — mainly Premiere, After Effects and basic Photoshop
  • An understanding of basic grades using in-house tools and the knowledge on how to provide necessary files for external colour mixing
  • An understanding of basic sound mixing using in-house tools and the knowledge on how to provide necessary files for external sound mixing
  • Exellent verbal and written communication skills
  • The ability to work autonomously, solve problems, work under pressure and meet deadlines.

Junkee is a funny and smart take on the wider world around us. If you think you’ve got what it takes to be Junkee’s video editor, apply here.
