• (Optional) Compose original music or adapt stock music creatively
• Work closely with writers, producers, and creative leads to align visuals with narrative goals
• Contribute creative ideas for improving pacing, tone, and structure
• Maintain consistency in visual style, tone, and branding across projects

Requirements

• Professional proficiency in Adobe Creative Cloud, especially Premiere Pro and Audition.
• Strong aesthetic sensibility and visual storytelling instincts.
• 3+ years of relevant professional experience (ideally in explainers, video essays, or documentaries)
• Experience with sound design, color grading/correction, and motion graphics.
• Ability to work independently, reliably, and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment.
• Enthusiastic about visual content and journalistic storytelling.

What we offer

• Flexible working hours and flexible employment arrangements
• Competitive compensation (depending on skills and work experience)
• Variety of projects and creative work in a young, growing team
• Regular team events in Amsterdam
