Video Producer / Editor – Social Impact

Video Producer / Editor – Social Impact

Use your powers for good as a Video Producer / Editor at Marketing for Change, a research and creative agency exclusively focused on inspiring positive behaviors. Your work will not be about selling products, but about advancing public health, health care access, environmental protection, a strong democracy, and other social change issues.

As Video Lead, you’ll own video projects as a key member of our creative team – leading work from concept through final delivery. We’re looking for someone who thrives in a small, collaborative creative environment, enjoys sharing ideas, and gets excited about experimenting with new tactics, technologies, and ways of working.

About Video at Marketing for Change

Marketing for Change is dedicated to surprising and delighting audiences – no matter the budget – through everything from traditional :60 and :30 TV spots to short social shareables, six-second pre-roll ads, and TikToks. Video is central to how we tell stories that move people to think, feel, and act.

What You’ll Do

• Lead video projects from kickoff through final delivery, serving as the primary video owner on assigned accounts
• Edit high-quality video content into final products that get attention, convey emotion and tell a story
• Plan and manage video productions, including pre-production, production, and post
• Optimize video processes to create efficiencies in the team, while empowering junior creatives to take ownership of simpler video tasks
• Collaborate with creative directors, writers, designers, and researchers to develop effective creative solutions
• Guide clients through the video production process, managing expectations, feedback, and deliverables
• Apply behavioral science principles to video content to motivate real-world behavior change

Required Experience & Skills

• Strong video editing skills (preferably in Adobe Premiere)
• Experience producing videos from concept through final edit (script → shoot → post)
• Ability to plan and manage video productions, including:
  • Shot lists, budgets, scouting, and production timeline
  • Hiring and crew (DPs, sound, PAs, etc.)
  • Casting talent (actors and non actors)
• Experience producing social-first video content (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, etc.)
• Ability to incorporate static and motion graphics into video
• Interest in applying behavioral science to creative work
• Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously
• Comfort collaborating with and advising clients and coworkers
• Self-learner who keeps up with evolving technologies and trends
• Ability to travel moderately (10-15% of time) within the U.S.

Nice to have

• Video storytelling and scriptwriting skills for short and longer-form content
• Interest in applying copywriting and ideation skills across formats (video, print ads, social posts, and other creative assets)
• Experience developing motion graphics

Some of the perks:

• We care about each other. We check in. We advocate and cover for each other. We cheer each other on. And we like to hang out.
• We offer a comprehensive benefits package including vacation, sick and holiday leave, 401(k) matching contributions, and paid parental leave. We offer a range of health plans including PPO and HSA healthcare, as well as dental, disability and life insurance.
• We are a deliberately developmental workplace. That means we will help you develop and pursue professional goals that match your life goals and purpose.
• We prioritize balance and flexibility. We are at our desks most days for 8 hours, not 10. We are open to schedule adjustments and flexible schedules.
• We are a flat organization. Everyone’s ideas are valued. Anyone can spearhead a new company initiative or make change.
• We care about social change. We show up each day as part of a fun and friendly work culture to do inspiring work that makes the world a better place.
