Social Media Videographer / Editor

The Local Project is hiring a Social Media Videographer / Editor based in Alexandria, Sydney, to join their in-house content production team. This role sits across social video production and post-production, responsible for developing, shooting, and editing short-form content for platforms including Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, as well as cutting assets for commercial partner campaigns. It suits a self-directed content creator with a strong post-production workflow background and a genuine interest in design and architecture storytelling.

About the Role

The Social Media Videographer / Editor works within The Local Project’s digital and production teams, contributing to both the brand’s own social channels and client-facing campaign deliverables. Day-to-day work moves between on-location shooting, editing suites, and the publishing calendar, with direct involvement in special projects led by the CEO and Founder. The role requires someone comfortable managing end-to-end short-form video production without needing heavy direction.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop, shoot, and edit short-form social video content formatted to platform specifications across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
• Cut long-form video into punchy, platform-ready clips that retain pacing and narrative clarity through strong post-production editing judgment.
• Capture on-location and behind-the-scenes footage for social-first content creation, including architecture and design subject matter.
• Add captions, motion graphics, and overlays, then export in required delivery formats for each channel.
• Contribute to the weekly publishing calendar, hitting content deadlines across multiple concurrent projects.
• Work directly with the CEO and Founder to film and edit special projects that support his personal brand presence alongside The Local Project channels.

What You Bring

• A minimum of two years editing and producing video content, including work delivered for external clients or commercial partners.
• Hands-on experience with DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, or comparable non-linear editing software.
• Demonstrated ability to maintain consistent visual tone, pacing, and brand standards across a social content production slate.
• Practical knowledge of platform-specific delivery formats and current trends across short-form video.
• Comfort working with senior stakeholders and clients throughout the production process, not just at handover.

Why This Role

The Local Project is a well-regarded media brand in the architecture and design space, with an established audience across social and digital channels and a growing commercial partner portfolio. This is a full-time, in-house position that puts a Social Media Videographer / Editor at the centre of both editorial and branded content production, with direct access to senior leadership and real influence over how stories are told on screen.
