The Role
We are looking to welcome an editor into our team who lives and breathes social-first storytelling. This isn't a traditional post-production role. We're looking for someone with exceptional editorial judgement who understands not only how to edit, but what makes people stop scrolling, watch, engage and share.
You'll work across a broad range of lifestyle, luxury, hospitality, technology and consumer brands, crafting social-first films that feel native to each platform whilst elevating the visual standard of every client we work with.
You'll work closely with our Creative Lead, creative strategists and production team to translate ideas into beautifully crafted content that performs.
We're looking for someone who obsesses over pacing, storytelling, rhythm, sound design, typography, motion and detail.
The Responsibilities
- Edit high-quality social-first content for a range of premium, lifestyle and legacy brands.
- Craft edits that feel native to social whilst maintaining premium production value.
- Make proactive creative decisions throughout the edit that challenge the briefs.
- Develop strong narrative structure, pacing and hooks to maximise retention and engagement.
- Create multiple platform-specific versions and iterations where appropriate.
- Elevate edits through motion graphics, typography, sound design and subtle animation.
- Work closely with creative strategists and producers to ensure edits align with wider creative strategy.
- Respond thoughtfully to client feedback whilst maintaining creative integrity.
- Continuously improve editing workflows, templates and efficiencies across the team.
- Ensure every piece of work leaving the agency meets our creative standard.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
(Ad-hoc)
- Support pitches by creating mood films, speculative edits and creative references.
- Help shape editing approaches during concept development.
- Contribute ideas that improve storytelling before projects even reach post-production.
- Edit content for socialed's own social channels.
- Experiment with new editing techniques, transitions, formats and platform trends.
- Build LUTs, presets, templates and systems that improve consistency across the team.
- Stay ahead of emerging editing styles, creators and platform behaviours.
What does success look like?
Success in this role is measured by the quality, originality and performance of the work you produce. We aren't looking for someone who simply delivers edits on time.
We're looking for someone whose work consistently makes our clients' content feel more premium, more engaging and more culturally relevant than it did the month before.
You'll have an instinct for knowing what stays, what gets cut and what makes someone keep watching. The best editors don't just execute, they elevate.
You'll constantly be asking:
- Can this hook be stronger?
- Is this pacing right?
- Does this feel native to the platform?
- Can this story be told better?
- Is this worthy of someone's attention?
