About the Role

Sports Research is seeking a Senior Video Editor (Contractor) to lead post-production editing across a high volume of digital content. This role is responsible for turning raw footage into polished, performance-driven creative across social media, paid advertising, and eCommerce platforms.


You’ll partner closely with the Senior Creative Media Director to produce engaging lifestyle, product, and marketing content that is both visually compelling and optimized for platform performance. This is a highly autonomous role requiring strong technical editing skills, creative judgment, and the ability to work quickly under tight deadlines.


What You’ll Do

🎬 Video Editing & Post-Production

  • Edit short-form and mid-length video content for social, paid media, and eCommerce
  • Ensure all edits align with brand guidelines and platform best practices
  • Craft pacing, storytelling, and visual flow to maximize engagement
  • Deliver high-quality edits under fast turnaround timelines

🎨 Color, Audio & Motion Graphics

  • Perform color correction and grading for visual consistency
  • Edit and mix audio for clarity and balance
  • Add motion graphics and visual enhancements as needed

🧩 Asset Integration & Collaboration

  • Integrate design and retouched assets into video edits
  • Collaborate closely with creative leadership on revisions and direction
  • Iterate quickly based on feedback while maintaining quality standards

📁 Workflow & Project Management

  • Manage multiple projects simultaneously with strong organization
  • Maintain clean file structures, version control, and asset management
  • Ensure timely exports and proper documentation of all deliverables


What Success Looks Like

  • Consistently high-quality, on-brand video deliverables
  • On-time completion of all editing projects
  • Strong alignment with creative direction and performance goals
  • Efficient handling of multiple concurrent projects
  • Fast, effective response to feedback and revision cycles
  • Organized and reliable editing workflows and file management


What We’re Looking For

  • 5+ years of professional video editing experience
  • Strong portfolio in lifestyle, wellness, or product-focused content
  • Advanced proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and Creative Cloud
  • Strong understanding of pacing, storytelling, and digital performance content
  • Ability to manage fast-turnaround, high-volume workflows
  • Excellent organization, communication, and collaboration skills


Nice to Have

  • Experience with health, wellness, or consumer product brands
  • Familiarity with eCommerce content (Amazon, PDP, paid social ads)
  • Basic motion graphics or design skills (Photoshop / Illustrator / After Effects)


Work Environment

This is a hybrid role combining remote editing with occasional onsite collaboration in Los Angeles. The environment is fast-paced, production-driven, and highly collaborative with frequent interaction across creative and marketing teams.
