Lead Short Form Video Editor

About Bluu Media House

We’re Bluu Media House a premium video production and digital strategy company based on the southern Gold Coast, helping service-based businesses tell their stories with clarity, beauty, and impact.

Founded by filmmaker Guillaume Cornet, with over 20 years of experience in global storytelling, Bluu exists to solve a common problem: incredible businesses struggling to stand out in a noisy, content-saturated world. We partner with ambitious brands to create high-end video content and content marketing strategies that drive engagement, build trust, and convert.

Our clients are in real estate, finance, design, legal, coaching, wellness, etc. but what they have in common is this: they know their brand deserves to look and feel next level.

Why This Role Exists

We’re growing fast and need a Lead Video Editor who can not only edit exceptional video content but who’s also ready to own the post-production process and grow into a leadership role.

You’ll be the editor behind the visuals, but more than that, you’ll be the person building the systems, the quality standards, and eventually the team of editors that supports our biggest clients and monthly retainers.

This isn’t just a technical role. It’s a strategic one.

What You’ll Be Doing

Core Editing & Storytelling

• Edit short-form content for reels, YouTube Shorts, TikTok, LinkedIn, etc.

• Edit long-form content such as brand story videos, interviews, and case studies

• Use pacing, sound design, music, typography, and motion to elevate raw footage into emotional, cinematic stories

• Ensure content aligns with brand voice, tone, and social platform best practices

Workflow & Process Management

• Organize project files and asset libraries in a scalable, team-friendly way

• Build and maintain post-production workflows that allow the business to scale content delivery

• Maintain consistency in brand templates, color grading, and editing style

• Contribute to creative ideation and storytelling strategies for clients

• Provide guidance, feedback, and support to junior editors and freelancers

Content Performance Awareness

• Stay current on trends in editing, content formats, platform algorithms

• Review video performance and apply learnings to future edits

• Bring fresh energy and ideas that improve engagement and storytelling

While we’re based on the Gold Coast and love collaborating in person, we’re open to remote work for the right candidate, someone who is highly organised, communicative, and able to deliver consistently at a high level.
