• High-level video editing skills using common post-production tools (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or similar).
• Strong understanding of social media platforms, current content trends, and basic analytics for performance evaluation.
• Ability to develop creative concepts that incorporate team members and brand personalities into content in fun, authentic ways.
• Comfort and professionalism working directly with senior leadership and C-suite executives on camera and in planning sessions.
• Experience working with UGC creators, ambassadors, or influencers on shoots and events.
