Job description

Want to accelerate your career? Electrify your potential as a Senior Video Editor and join the fastest growing motorsport on the planet!

About Formula E:

Formula E, the world's fastest-growing sport, is redefining motorsport with a bold focus on innovation and sustainability.

Hosting over 150 races in iconic cities globally and backed by top manufacturers like Porsche, Nissan and Jaguar, we feature elite drivers and cutting-edge EV technology. As the world's first certified B Corp sport and the first sport certified to the British Standards Institution (BSI) Net Zero Pathway. Formula E combines thrilling entertainment with a mission to advance sustainable progress, inspiring a global fanbase with our high-performance brand new GEN4 car capable of hitting speeds of 335kph and reaching 200kph in just 4.4 seconds. Currently achieving 0-100 kmh in 1.8 seconds.

Using the spectacle of sport, we are sending a powerful and meaningful message to help alter perceptions and speed-up the switch to electric mobility.

The Role:

We believe it is our purpose to “make progress thrilling” and as our creative studio’s Senior Video Editor & Creative, it will be your responsibility, alongside the Brand & Creative Director, to define, craft, and elevate our signature house editing style to keep delivering on that purpose.

You are a filmmaker at heart, equally confident behind the camera and in the edit suite. From developing the visual approach and building shot lists to capturing high-energy race action, paddock moments, fan and premium experiences, you’ll own the creative craft across the entire video-making process - from first frame to final cut

Working across marketing and brand creative, you’ll bring our world to life through compelling storytelling and high-impact video, creating campaign films, hype promos, broadcast tune-in content, paid media and fan-first experiences that build excitement and bring audiences closer to the action.

Moving away from standard editing routines, you bring an exceptional editorial eye and a deep mastery of visual storytelling to our in-house team. You are a craft-obsessed powerhouse who understands rhythm, pacing, and emotional resonance. Whether you are cutting a soul-stirring brand trailer, defining high-velocity race edits, or crafting slick digital assets, you lead with relentless attention to detail, razor-sharp instincts, and a disruptive mindset that ensures every piece aligns seamlessly with Formula E's holistic brand direction and tone.

Key deliverables:

• The House Editing Style: You will own, shape, and evolve the signature editing aesthetic of Formula E. You will set the benchmark for pace, tone, audio design, and visual impact across all video output, ensuring every frame feels authentically Formula E.
• Holistic Brand & Storytelling Alignment: Working in close partnership with the Brand & Creative Director, you will ensure all video and motion content aligns seamlessly with the brand’s holistic creative vision, narrative arches, and cultural positioning.
• On-Site & Race Content Filming: You will film high-energy content on location at races, capturing captivating behind-the-scenes footage, trackside action, and exclusive race-day moments to produce compelling promotional videos and live-event marketing materials.
• High-Impact Asset Creation: You will be hands‑on in editing, finishing, and polishing premium long‑form and short‑form video assets across multiple touchpoints—including high‑octane brand films, paid and organic digital campaigns, performance marketing, OOH screens, and immersive event visuals.
• Flawless Craft & Attention to Detail: You will bring meticulous execution to every stage of post‑production—from precise cutdowns and seamless transitions to sound design, audio mix, and colour finishing—ensuring flawless quality control on all final deliverables.
• Conceptualisation & Creative Instincts: You will bring strong editorial instincts to the table, interpreting creative briefs and raw footage to pitch innovative cutting styles, dynamic visual concepts, and narrative treatments that push the boundaries of sports and entertainment storytelling.

What we're looking for in you:

• Proven Track Record & Portfolio: You possess a standout portfolio demonstrating clear success in the sports, lifestyle, entertainment, or youth culture spaces, showcasing high‑end craftsmanship and editorial flair.
• Filming & Videography Skills: You have hands‑on camera operation experience, with the technical ability and creative eye to shoot dynamic, high‑quality promotional content on location in fast-paced event environments.
• Editing Mastery & Instinct: You have deep editorial intuition with an innate sense for pacing, rhythm, audio layering, and narrative flow. You know how to turn raw action and footage into emotionally charged stories.
• Relentless Attention to Detail: You take immense pride in the micro‑details of post‑production, ensuring pixel‑perfect graphics alignment, frame‑accurate cuts, and immaculate audio balancing.
• Holistic Brand Sensitivity: You look beyond individual edits to see the big picture. You understand how video sits within a wider 360‑degree brand strategy and how tone of voice translates visually across diverse platforms.
• The "Formula E" Mindset: You thrive in fast‑paced, dynamic environments, bringing a proactive attitude and adaptability to the live‑event and racing calendar. A passion for sport, lifestyle culture, and innovation is a major plus.

Technical Skills & Tools

• Camera & Production Equipment: Proficiency in camera setup, lighting, and audio acquisition for field shoots during high‑tempo live race events.
• Post‑Production Mastery: Expert‑level command of Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, and After Effects (or equivalent industry‑standard software).
• Audio & Color Finishing: Strong expertise in sound design, audio mixing, music selection, and color grading to deliver broadcast‑ and campaign‑ready master files.
• Format & Platform Versatility: Deep understanding of technical delivery specs, ratios, and optimal editing techniques across diverse platforms from ultra‑wide event displays to native 9:16 vertical social feeds.
• Proactive Craft Excellence: Highly self‑motivated with an innate drive to constantly refine the work, test new visual techniques, and push the artistic boundary of post‑production.

What's in it for you?

• 25 days' annual leave, Birthday day off and Wellbeing leave
• Opportunity to extend your stay if travelling for a race event
• Health Cash Plan and access to the Aviva Digital Workplace app
• Enhanced Parental Leave
• Flexible Bank Holidays
• Paid volunteer and carer's leave
• Cycle to Work and Electric Car Scheme
• Formula E store discount
• Regular social events and employee working groups
