Jora Malaysia will close on 9th September 2026. Thank you for being with us, we are cheering you on as you continue your career journey.
We are looking for a Senior Video Editor who can turn raw footage into polished, high-performing content across social media, brand campaigns, podcasts, advertisements and long-form content. This is not purely an editing role. You are expected to understand storytelling, pacing, retention, hooks, visual hierarchy and platform-native content.

Key Responsibilities:

- Edit long-form videos including podcasts, interviews, educational videos and brand content.
- Turn long-form recordings into multiple high-quality short-form content pieces.
- Create strong openings, pacing and visual transitions that improve audience retention.
- Add subtitles, kinetic typography, motion graphics, B-roll, sound design and appropriate music.
- Perform basic colour correction, audio cleanup and enhancement.
- Select the strongest takes and moments from raw footage. Work from scripts, storyboards and creative briefs.
- Understand when to use fast-paced edits versus clean premium storytelling.
- Maintain consistent brand identity across clients.
- Organise editing projects, assets and source files properly.
- Deliver content according to production schedules and deadlines.
- Make revisions based on internal and client feedback.
- Support junior editors and establish editing standards where required.
- Identify opportunities to improve the quality and efficiency of the post-production workflow.
What We Expect:
- Strong portfolio of social media and commercial video editing.
- Strong understanding of storytelling and audience retention.
- Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro or DaVinci Resolve.
- Working knowledge of After Effects or similar motion graphics software.
- Good eye for typography, composition and visual hierarchy.
- Strong understanding of social media content formats.
- Ability to work across different industries and brand styles.
- Ability to manage several projects simultaneously.
- Strong attention to detail.
- Able to work independently without requiring constant creative direction.
