Full Job Description

We are looking for an in-house Video Editor to join our creative team. You'll work directly with our strategists and producers to turn raw footage into polished, high-impact video content for campaign advertising. This is a hands-on, fast-paced role suited to an editor who's comfortable juggling multiple projects and tight turnarounds without sacrificing quality.

Here's what your day to day will look like:

Edit TV-ready ads from raw footage through final post-production, including color correction, audio mixing, and graphics integration
Produce and resize content for social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, etc.), adapting aspect ratios, pacing, and captions for each platform
Collaborate with producers and strategists to translate creative direction and campaign messaging into finished video
Manage multiple projects simultaneously, often under tight deadlines tied to campaign and news cycles
Organize and maintain project files, footage libraries, and version control for active and archived projects
Add graphics, lower thirds, captions, and basic motion elements as needed
Ensure all deliverables meet technical specs for broadcast, digital, and social distribution

Here's what we're looking for:

1-3 years of professional video editing experience (agency, campaign, news, or in-house creative team experience is a plus)
Proficiency with industry-standard editing software (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, or comparable tools)
A strong eye for pacing, storytelling, and message clarity, especially under short-form time constraints
Experience formatting and resizing content for multiple platforms and aspect ratios
Comfort working with captions/subtitles and basic motion graphics
Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage several projects at once
Ability to take direction and feedback well, and update quickly
A reel or links to creative samples you've produced (required with application)
Some light camera/shooting experience preferred, but not required
Interest in politics and campaigns is a plus, but not required

We value our team members and pride ourselves on a great work environment and these benefits:

Employee Health Insurance coverage at 100%
Dental and vision insurance; Available at a discount
Paid vacation
401(k) with annual corporate contribution

Applications submitted without a reel or creative samples will not be considered.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: From $75,000.00 per year

Application Question(s):

We regularly work with Republican campaigns and conservative issue groups. Are you comfortable working in this environment?
Please share a link to your reel or creative samples. If your reel is a file, upload it into the cover letter section. Your application will not be reviewed without a reel or samples.

Ability to Commute:

Richmond, VA 23230 (Required)
