Freelance Video Editor — Out-of-Home Campaign (2-Week Contract) Location: Remote (must be based in Australia with full working rights)
Contract length: 2 weeks
Dates: Monday 7 September – Friday 18 September
Engagement type: Freelance / contract
About The Role We’re looking for an experienced Video Editor to join a global brand for a high-profile OOH campaign, launching at a major trade centre in New York City as part of a global brand rollout. This is heavy-video, high-visibility work, 20 placements in total — and you’ll be working hand-in-hand with a Senior Designer to bring the campaign to life from initial templates through to final delivery.
What You’ll Do
- Partner closely with a Senior Designer across the full production cycle, from template handover through to final asset delivery
- Version and resize video content across multiple out-of-home formats and placements, including large-scale and non-standard aspect ratios
- Adapt and skin brand assets to fit wide-ranging OOH formats consistently across all 20 placements
- Manage a high volume of video versions and duplicates with precision and consistency
- Work to tight production timelines with a fast turnaround
- Ensure all assets meet brand and technical specifications ahead of media delivery
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience as a video editor in advertising, production, or agency environments
- Strong experience with out-of-home or large-format video production, including resizing and adapting content across varied dimensions and aspect ratios
- Ability to work efficiently from an established design template — this is a production-focused role with creative flair and instinct, rather than concept/creative development
- Comfortable managing a high volume of asset versions (resizing, duplicating, reformatting) accurately and efficiently
- Strong collaboration skills — you’ll be working in close partnership with a Senior Designer, essentially as a two-person production team
- Ability to work flexibly across time zones to accommodate international feedback loops
- Excellent attention to detail and ability to meet fixed deadlines
Software & Technical Skills Based in Australia with full working rights (required)
- Adobe Premiere Pro (essential)
- Adobe After Effects (essential — for motion graphics, resizing, and templated versioning)
- Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator (for asset prep and brand asset adaptation)
- Experience with video compression/export specs for out-of-home and digital signage formats is highly regarded
- Comfortable working within brand templates and style guides
Logistics
- Fully remote — no in-office attendance required
- 2-week engagement: 7–18 September
