More Perfect Union is an advocacy and journalism organization with a mission to build power for the working class. We cover politics, policy, labor, business, and economic news through a class lens, and we pair our reporting with activism to help working people win policy fights. Launched in February 2021, More Perfect Union’s coverage has garnered more than 500 million video views and 2+ million followers and subscribers. 

We are looking for a Video Editor Fellow who will focus on video editing for our newly created Quickturn team — editing a range of video formats across social media formats, including breaking news coverage, videos from the picket line, on-camera explainers, and concise, shareable YouTube shorts emphasizing a strong point from our longer-form content. While there will be an emphasis on vertical video (TikToks and YouTube shorts), the video editor fellow will also be editing for YouTube. 

Editing skills are essential for the role as well as a passion for digital video and economic justice, strong time management and self-sufficiency, and a desire to learn in a fast-paced and ever-changing environment. 

Core Responsibilities: 

  • Edit videos on a quick timeline;
  • Pull b-roll, news headlines, images and other media for videos;
  • Complete assignments from supervisor and colleagues and meet deadlines;
  • Maintain close communication with supervisor and video producer fellow, to ensure quick turnarounds;
  • Perform other duties as assigned.

Experience/Qualifications: 

  • Proficiency with Adobe Premiere;
  • Proficiency with in-platform editing tools on TikTok and Instagram;
  • After Effects experience a plus;
  • Familiarity with national politics and labor issues; 
  • A passion for economic justice and workers rights; 
  • Strong understanding of social media, email etiquette and exceptional interpersonal communication skills; 
  • Producing, scripting, research or development experience a plus;
  • Available full-time hours and ability to excel in a remote - work from home environment;
  • Ability to operate in a nimble environment.

At More Perfect Union we strive to increase diversity, equity, inclusion and justice in all elements of our work. We recruit, employ, train, compensate, and promote regardless of race, religion, creed, national origin, ancestry, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity (including gender nonconformity and status as a transgender individual), age, physical or mental disability, post-secondary educational status, citizenship, genetic information, past, current, or prospective service in the uniformed services, or any other characteristic protected under applicable federal, state, or local law. We strongly encourage members of historically underrepresented and marginalized communities to apply.
