Video Editor

OLIVER North America is hiring a Video Editor based in Chicago, Illinois to join their in-house agency model serving brand and performance media clients. This role sits squarely in the post-production workflow, with the editor owning cuts from brief through delivery across paid social, display, and digital video formats. It’s a strong fit for a mid-level editor who knows how to move fast across a high-volume content slate without losing quality.

About the Role

OLIVER operates as an embedded agency partner for major brands, which means the post-production work here is ongoing and varied rather than project-to-project. Day to day, the Video Editor is cutting and adapting assets across multiple platform specifications, from paid social formats to occasional longer-form brand content, working remotely and managing their own project queue. The pace is steady and the output is production-ready, not rough-cut work.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit and deliver video content across performance media and paid social channels, optimising each cut for platform specifications and audience behaviour.
• Use Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects to produce on-brand edits that meet both creative direction and commercial objectives from brief.
• Cut and adapt existing assets across multiple formats and aspect ratios, maintaining consistency across a varied digital distribution slate.
• Manage revision rounds efficiently, incorporating feedback from creative and account partners clearly and within agreed deadlines.
• Maintain organised project files, asset libraries, and archiving systems to support a remote post-production workflow.
• Contribute to the improvement of edit templates and asset management processes across the broader content operation.

What You Bring

• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects across editing, motion, and asset adaptation at a production-ready level.
• Demonstrated experience editing performance media and paid social video, with a clear understanding of what drives conversion in paid channels.
• A portfolio or showreel showing a range of edited work, with paid social or performance video examples preferred.
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously in a fully remote environment without close supervision.
• Adobe Photoshop proficiency is a plus and welcomed across projects.

Why This Role

OLIVER works with over 300 clients across 40 countries, which means the Video Editor here builds real range across brand categories and content formats rather than cutting the same type of asset on repeat. The base salary for this position ranges from $85,000.00 to $95,000.00, with individual compensation varying based on experience, location, and business needs. For an editor looking to grow within a structured in-house post-production environment, this is a stable, well-resourced position.
