Job description

The Role

LSKR is seeking a Creative Editor who can move fluidly between video editing, motion, and graphic design, and turn ideas, footage, and direction into polished assets ready for client delivery.

This role sits at the intersection of craft and output. You'll cut reels, design GIFs, build social-first video, and bring the same eye to static design when the work calls for it.

This role reports to the Director of Operations, with creative oversight from the Chief Creative Officer across client work and LSKR's brand.

This role is directed toward a candidate who is experienced beyond just one specialized craft, and is trusted with the full post-production toolkit.

What You'll Do

Edit Video for Social

• Cut reels, shorts, and short-form video for client and LSKR-owned channels


• Design and animate GIFs, loops, and motion assets that perform on social


• Translate raw footage into content that holds attention from the first frame


• Responsible for scripting and sourcing for videos, depending on the project.

Design Across Surfaces

• Produce graphic design work for social, digital, and presentation use


• Bring consistency in typography, color, and composition across formats


• Move between motion and static work

Own Post-Production

• Handle color, sound, pacing, and finishing on video work


• Build and maintain templates, project files, and asset libraries for repeatable output


• Flag what's working, what isn't, and what could push further

What Success Looks Like

• High-quality creative ships faster. LSKR can produce more social, video, motion, and design assets without lowering the standard.


• Edits move cleanly from direction to delivery. Feedback is understood, applied quickly, and returned without unnecessary back-and-forth.


• Assets are organized, polished, and ready to use. Files, exports, captions, versions, and formats are handled correctly before they leave the editor's hands.


• LSKR's own brand looks sharper and more consistent. Our social, pitch, website, and internal materials reflect the same level of taste we bring to client work.

Who You Are

• Strong editor first, comfortable in Premiere, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro


• Fluent in graphic design and design fundamentals (Adobe CS, Figma, or equivalent)


• Quick study on brand voice: you can absorb a brand and produce in its language fast


• Sharp eye for pacing, rhythm, and what holds attention on a phone screen


• Comfortable owning the work end-to-end without hand-holding


• Curious about photography, filming, or production - or already doing it


• Positive, humble, and steady under pressure


• High judgment, low ego, and able to receive feedback without getting defensive


• A strong teammate who brings energy, takes responsibility, and makes the work better

Compensation & Incentives

Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience, and includes performance-based incentives.

Why This Role Matters

LSKR needs someone who can help make the work better and get it out the door faster.

This role turns ideas, footage, scripts, and direction into finished creative for clients and for LSKR's own brand. You won't just be pushing buttons at the end of the process. You'll be close to the creative from the start.

For the right person, this is a chance to build serious range inside a growing agency and help shape the creative engine as LSKR scales.

About LSKR

LSKR is a team of creative problem solvers from across the country, each bringing a different perspective, background and way of seeing the world. We are strategists, writers, editors, designers and filmmakers with a long track record of solving high-stakes communications challenges and delivering for our clients.

We believe most people are disrupted enough in their everyday lives. For a brand or organization to truly cut through, it has to create a real connection.

We think from first principles and stay focused on the business outcome. Much of the creative industry has become distracted by attention, awards and vanity metrics that do not necessarily translate into results. We care about work that earns trust, moves people and helps our clients achieve their goals.

We connect companies with the people who matter when it matters most. We are The Connection Company.
