Social Videographer & Editor

3Search is hiring a Social Videographer & Editor based in Manchester, England, UK. This role sits within an in-house creative studio, responsible for end-to-end video production across social channels including LinkedIn and YouTube, from shoot day through to final delivery. It suits a solo operator who is equally comfortable running a planned interview setup and grabbing agile, unscripted content at a live event.

About the Role

You will be embedded in the creative team of a globally established technology-led organisation, producing platform-native video content that serves multiple international markets. The post-production workflow here covers everything from talking-head edits and behind-the-scenes coverage to short-form social reels with animated typography and motion graphics. Expect a mix of planned production days and reactive content capture, with the output volume requiring efficient editing habits and strong asset management.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the full social video production process, from initial brief and shot planning through to picture lock and final delivery across digital channels.
• Operate camera, manage lighting rigs and capture clean location audio using a lightweight DSLR-based kit, working independently without a crew.
• Edit high volumes of social-first content to a consistent standard, selecting footage, shaping pace and applying finishing touches appropriate to each platform.
• Produce motion graphics and animated typography sequences, particularly short-form reels designed to communicate technology concepts quickly and clearly.
• Repurpose existing footage alongside self-shot material, building efficient post-production workflows that support a high-output content schedule.
• Apply AI-supported tools for captioning, resizing and content adaptation to maintain brand consistency while improving turnaround on repeat tasks.

What You Bring

• A showreel demonstrating end-to-end social video production across LinkedIn and YouTube content formats, including talking-head, event coverage and short-form edits.
• Confident solo camera operation with practical knowledge of DSLR setups, portable lighting and location audio capture.
• Strong editing instincts with a track record of delivering high volumes of assets without dropping quality.
• Experience with After Effects or equivalent motion graphics tools, particularly animated text and interface-driven sequences.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted post-production tools used to streamline captioning, reformatting and content resizing.

Why This Role

This position offers the scope to shape the visual identity of a recognised global brand from within its own creative studio, rather than as an external supplier. The hybrid working model is built around roughly two days per week in the Manchester office alongside the wider creative team, with ad-hoc travel to London and occasional international travel to the USA. The advertised compensation range is 30,000 to 42,000.
