About The Position

Collier.Simon is an independent, full-service creative agency in the Los Angeles/Hollywood area, partnering with clients from Fortune 500 companies to up-and-comers across various industries. The agency is undergoing a tech-powered transformation, utilizing AI to enhance creativity. They are seeking a full-time Video Editor & Motion Designer with strong traditional craft who actively experiments with AI and emerging tools. This hands-on creative role involves editing and animating a wide range of project types, primarily 16:9 for OTT and broadcast. The ideal candidate will leverage new tools and technology to improve efficiency and quality. This role is a core member of the creative team, collaborating daily with the Creative Director, Head of Production, art directors, and copywriters.

Requirements

• 3+ years of video editing and motion design experience in an agency, studio, or similar creative environment
• Expertise in Adobe Premiere and After Effects — these are non-negotiable
• Experience collaborating in Figma
• Solid design fundamentals: typography, layout, composition, and motion principles
• Experience producing assets across a range of formats, including OTT/broadcast spots, digital advertising (including PMAX and other sound-off environments), long-form content, and social video
• Demonstrated ability to craft video that reads clearly both sound-on and sound-off (captions, kinetic type, visual storytelling, etc.)
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining quality and meeting deadlines
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail throughout the production process
• Actively experimenting with AI-powered tools for video and motion — whether AI-assisted editing, generative visuals, automated workflows, or other emerging tools — and able to speak to your experience with them
• Available to work standard PST business hours
• You must submit a portfolio to be considered.

Nice To Haves

• Are equally comfortable editing long-form (:90) and short-form (:10) video and crafting polished motion graphics
• Have a strong eye for design, typography, and layout — not just cutting
• Can develop videos that communicate clearly whether sound is on or off — critical for OTT, PMAX, and other placements where audio may not play
• Are already integrating AI tools into your video and motion workflow and can speak to what’s working
• Thrive in a collaborative team environment and can also execute independently with minimal oversight
• Stay current on trends in video, motion, and AI-powered creative tools — and are actively testing new ones
• Work well under pressure and know how to prioritize in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
• Are excited to grow with an agency and invest in long-term creative relationships with clients and teammates

Responsibilities

• Edit video content across formats — with the majority of work being 16:9 for OTT and broadcast, plus sizzle reels, digital advertising assets, PMAX and other sound-on/sound-off placements, and occasional social and creator-style edits — from inception through final delivery
• Design and produce motion graphics for broadcast, OTT, digital campaigns, and other channels, with an ability to craft work that communicates clearly whether audio is on or off
• Ensure all deliverables are on-brand, strategically sound, and technically spec’d correctly
• Collaborate closely with the Creative Director, Head of Production, art directors, and copywriters throughout the creative process
• Present work-in-progress cuts and final assets to internal teams and clients as needed
• Maintain organized project files and adhere to delivery standards
• Bring AI tools and workflow thinking to the table — sharing what you’re experimenting with and helping identify opportunities to work smarter across video and motion production
• Contribute to building out and evolving our internal video and motion practices as the team and toolset grow

Benefits

• Benefits including healthcare
• 401K
• vacation/PTO policy
