Freelance Senior Video Editor | £350-£450 p/d | Starting early October
I'm hiring on behalf of a digital creative agency with offices in London and Finland, working with large tech brands. They need a senior freelance video editor to start in the next two to three weeks.
The work:
- Documentary-style films and customer stories. Real footage, real people.
- The job is finding the story in a 90-minute interview, getting the pacing right, and knowing what to cut.
- You'll be handed storyboards and scripts and expected to work out how the story is best told on screen, not just execute it shot for shot.
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.
The contract:
- A month to begin with, but there's more work behind it and it's likely to roll into November and beyond.
- They want someone they can keep. Full time ideally, though four days a week works for the right person.
The rate:
- £350 a day as a starting point, with room into the £400s for someone genuinely strong.
What they need to see:
- A real body of work editing live footage: interviews, customer stories, brand documentaries. Not templated or stock-led
- Premiere Pro and/or DaVinci Resolve
- Comfort recutting the same story into multiple lengths and formats for social
- A good ear for dialogue, music and mix
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Big pluses:
- AWS project experience
- A tech background or tech clients. A lot of this work is making complex information make visual sense
- Motion graphics for social: 2D in After Effects, and 3D in Cinema 4D or Blender
This is a senior brief. To be put forward you'll need a CV, portfolio, showreel, and one full piece of live footage start to finish.
