• Collaborate with Art/Design to ensure motion matches typography, color and composition rules of each title.

• Perform base color balancing and look‑matching; prep conforms for advanced grading when required (e.g. Resolve).
• Apply modern color‑managed practices (e.g. ACES where appropriate) to ensure consistent cross‑platform output and future‑proven masters.

• Dialogue cleanup, noise reduction, music editing, VO layback and basic mix.
• Deliver to recognized loudness practices (integrated LUFS and true‑peak) aligning with EBU R128 and ITU‑R BS.1770 measurement approaches.

• Create aspect‑ratio and duration variants (16:9 long‑form; 9:16/1:1/4:5 social) with platform‑specific exports, thumbnails and captions.
• Follow current delivery guidance for YouTube (codec/frame‑rate/bandwidth), Instagram Reels (9:16; min 30fps) and TikTok (9:16 recommended).

• Create and manage captions/subtitles (e.g. SRT) and localized texted versions; ensure accuracy, timing and brand tone in English/Arabic where needed.

• Run structured review cycles (cuts, notes, lock, finish) using collaborative tools for time‑coded feedback; present work to internal stakeholders and brand partners.
• Partner with the Head of Video Creative/Editorial and Brand Partnerships to deliver premium edits for commercial campaigns while protecting editorial integrity.

• Maintain meticulous project structures, naming and metadata; generate textless masters, clean versions and layered archives for re‑use.
• Deliver final packages per spec (master mezzanine, social derivatives, artwork, textless, caption files) and archive according to policy.

• Support shoots selectively (e.g. slate/logging media offload look tests) to ensure post‑friendly acquisition; primary remit remains editing.

• 5 years professional editing experience in premium media/agency environments with a reel spanning editorial and branded content.
• Expert in Adobe Premiere Pro; strong After Effects for titles/graphics; working knowledge of DaVinci Resolve (color conforms) and Audition/Resolve Fairlight for audio.

• Throughput & efficiency (edits delivered turnaround time, effective reuse of templates/packages).
• Engagement uplift on video posts (completion VTR watch time) in partnership with Audience teams.
• Stakeholder satisfaction (editorial and commercial) on campaign and franchise deliverables.
• Archive health (naming, metadata re‑usability; successful relink/restore).
