Social Video Editor/Producer | Food & Wine
Food & Wine is seeking a Social Video Editor/Producer for our social platforms. We are looking for a high-volume editor who can seamlessly toggle between “quick-turn” social clips and high-touch, narrative-driven short-form series. This role requires a self-starter who can navigate multiple, competing priorities with minimal direction. We aren’t looking for someone to simply follow a storyboard; you are expected to bring your own creative vision to the timeline to elevate raw assets into high-performing content with a proven, demonstrable track record of social success.
