• Editing long‑form and short‑form video
• Managing KISS and KISS XTRA YouTube channels
• Reviewing KISS video content and working with the team to implement changes
• Managing team schedules and production workflows, ensuring content opportunities are maximised and deadlines are met

The skills you will bring:

• Expert knowledge of camera, lighting and audio equipment
• Strong shooting and directing skills, including working with celebrity talent
• Editing proficiency working within the full Adobe suite. Premiere Pro essential
• Social video expertise – excellent understanding of digital content and social media
• Solid knowledge of YouTube channel management and best practice
• Calm, positive and patient team leader
• Attention to detail and commitment to high quality output
• Creative and sometimes out‑the‑box thinker
