Job description

New York Times Opinion is seeking a creative and energetic video editor to create vertical videos for nytimes.com and social media. While editing is at the core of this position, we are looking for a creative force who will be equal parts producer, writer and editor. This unique opportunity will allow the right person to conceive of and create new video formats for mobile-first video journalism. You will be expected to exercise journalistic and creative judgment to ensure excellence and accuracy in their work. You might be hosting a video one day and the next day be deep in an edit or rewrite of a script. There is no ceiling to creativity for this position. You will report to the Opinion Video team and collaborate closely with the audience team, as well as department journalists and external contributors. 

This is an in-office position, based in New York City and includes regular attendance in the office. There may be some flexibility to work remotely per your departmental guidance.

Responsibilities:

  • Produce, write and edit vertical videos
  • At times, act as a host in our videos to help translate our journalism for off-site audiences
  • Write engaging SEO-driven social captions
  • Post videos to our site and platforms like TikTok and YouTube
  • Collaborate with print journalists and editors to adapt, script and edit videos on a regular, timely cadence
  • Work with editors on inventive on-site and social formats that align with Opinion's mission and identity
  • Maintain broad knowledge of the social media landscape and be aware of new platform trends as they change
  • Be open to working with a diversity of voices and viewpoints
  • You will report to the Deputy Editor, Opinion Video
  • Demonstrate support and understanding of our value of journalistic independence and a commitment to our mission to seek the truth and help people understand the world.

Basic Qualifications:

  • 4+ years of experience with creative video editing
  • Ability to produce and publish short form vertical videos on tight deadlines
  • Ability to appear and speak on camera as a host
  • Expertise in video and graphics editing with Adobe Premiere and AfterEffects
  • Experience in archive producing, including using photo, video, graphics and audio
  • Deep knowledge of TikTok and Instagram
  • Eagerness to experiment with different forms of vertical and mobile visual storytelling
  • Strong writing and editing skills
  • Demonstrated success in the creation of innovative journalism in a fast-paced environment
  • Experience working in a newsroom or similar environment

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Knowledge of Times style (or the ability to absorb and apply it quickly)
  • Superb organizational skills, attention to detail, adherence to deadlines and time management
  • Excellent news judgment with a passion for news, The Times and its journalistic mission

This position is represented by the NewsGuild of NY.
