Maskew Media is a video production company working with founders in financial and professional services. We produce brand films, event coverage and social content - we shoot everything ourselves, on location, on cinema-grade kit - and we make The Objection Room, a video podcast.
We're a young company - a few years in and stable - and this hire matters. Right now the founder does much of the editing himself. We're looking for an editor to take that on at a high standard, with full support and training, so he can focus on winning new work and growing the brand. You'd be working directly with the founder, seeing up close how a company gets built, and making a genuine difference to the business rather than being a small part of a big machine.
The role
- Edit podcast episodes and short-form clips in line with our guidance and brand guidelines (full training given)
- Edit brand films, event videos and social content from professionally shot footage
- Manage the editing workflow: organise project files, prep timelines and selects for other editors, and pass projects cleanly between the team
- Take near-finished edits through to delivery
- Every project comes with a paper edit - selects, structure and story mapped before it reaches you
Essential
- Confident editing in Premiere Pro - our whole workflow runs on it and projects move between editors, so this one is non-negotiable
- Strong instincts for pacing and storytelling
- Organised and reliable with file management, versions and naming
- Based within reach of Peterborough, with the right to work in the UK. The role is largely remote, but we meet in person a few times a month
Desirable (none of these are deal breakers)
- After Effects
- Your own laptop capable of editing (we supply storage drives and software subscriptions, and can help with kit)
- A fast internet connection - project files are large
- An interest in videography. This is an editing role, but there may be opportunities to attend shoots
What we offer
- £25-30k, permanent, with a three-month probation period
- Your work published quickly - podcast episodes and client films across YouTube and LinkedIn
- A role we'll shape around your strengths as the business grows. We're looking for someone to grow with the company long term
- A straightforward hiring process: a short call, paid interview task, then a final meeting to talk through your edit. We aim to move from application to offer within two weeks
How to apply
Contact us with the subject line "Editor - [your name]" and include:
1. Links to one or two videos you edited yourself
2. A few sentences on one editing decision you made in one of them, and why you made it
No CV or cover letter needed - this isn't a writing job.
Pay: £25,000.00-£30,000.00 per year
Work Location: Hybrid remote in Peterborough (Cambridgeshire)
