COMPANY OVERVIEW

Curate Group is a dynamic events and experiences company, creating unforgettable moments that bring people together. We specialise in unique, high-quality live events - from large scale festivals, immersive concerts, cultural experiences and corporate events partnering with some of the world's most exciting brands.

One of our core event brands, Lumos Experiences, is one of the most distinctive live entertainment concepts, creating atmospheric candlelit concerts that transform unexpected spaces into something genuinely magical. We're growing fast, running multiple shows per week across new cities and countries and we're looking for a highly organised Video Editor to help build, evolve and elevate the Lumos visual style across film, social and wider brand content.

ROLE OVERVIEW

We're looking for a Video Editor to help develop and elevate Lumos's visual style across film and social content. As the brand grows, we need someone who can move confidently between quick, engaging social edits and more considered, longer-form films for YouTube and beyond.

We're a small team, so the role will be varied and hands-on. We'd love someone who brings fresh ideas, enjoys sharing them with the team, and can tell compelling stories about music, musicians, historic buildings and the people behind our events.

With events across the UK, Europe and the US, you'll be keen to explore local stories and create content that connects with audiences in each market. You'll also be curious about how your content performs, using what you learn to shape future work.

There's plenty of room to experiment with new formats, visual styles and creative concepts, with a team that welcomes ideas.

Videography experience would be a bonus, as would a willingness to travel to shoots in the UK or Europe. Ideally you'll be based in London or within travelling distance.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Edit footage into engaging social content, paid ads, YouTube films and wider campaign assets
• Move confidently between quick, platform-native edits and more polished, cinematic films
• Tell stories about our musicians and their craft, our audiences' connection to the music, and the people behind our events
• Bring the atmosphere of Lumos to life through thoughtful pacing, music, sound, colour and typography
• Create multiple cuts, formats and versions from each shoot, making the most of the footage available
• Work with interviews, live performances and behind-the-scenes footage to build compelling narratives
• Develop ideas for new formats, visual styles and creative concepts, and present them to the team
• Explore local stories across our UK, European and US markets, adapting content for different audiences
• Collaborate on shoot briefs, helping identify the footage and interviews needed for a strong edit
• Review content performance with the team and use those insights to inform future work
• Build and maintain an organised, searchable bank of Lumos footage and finished assets li>
• Help develop a consistent Lumos visual style as the brand grows
• Support the wider team with creative versioning and production where capacity allows
• If you have videography experience, contribute to shoots by capturing performances, interviews and behind-the-scenes content on camera or phone

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

An editor who understands what makes social content engaging and can also craft a more considered, cinematic film when the brief calls for it.

You'll be confident using CapCut as well as Premiere Pro, with a strong sense of pacing, storytelling, sound and visual composition. You'll know when content needs a quick, natural feel and when a more polished finish will serve it better.

We'd love someone curious and creatively ambitious who enjoys bringing ideas to the team, responding to feedback and learning from how their work performs. You'll be comfortable managing several edits at once and balancing speed with quality.

An interest in classical, jazz, opera or live music would be a plus, alongside a curiosity about the human stories behind our shows.

WHAT WE OFFER

• A competitive salary, depending on experience
• Access to our discretionary annual bonus based on personal and business performance
• 28 days annual leave, including bank and other public holidays (pro rata'd to 3 days)
• Additional annual leave days are given around Christmas and New Year
• An extra day of annual leave gifted for each year of service (up to an additional 3 days)
• Your Birthday off (or a day within the same month)
• A flexible hybrid-working policy, with beautiful offices in Chancery Lane, Central London
• Maternity/Paternity leave policy
• Significant opportunities for personal growth and career progression as the business scales
