The ideal candidate would have the technical acumen to work efficiently in Adobe Premiere and After Effects, demonstrate a keen eye for slick motion graphics, and love creating video content that drives our mission forward across many digital channels. He/she must be able to hit frequent deadlines and have an interest in public policy.
This is a full-time remote role (although it is possible to work out of our NYC office).

- Creation of platform-specific promotional video content (trailers, hype reels, supercuts, etc.)
- Work with executive producers to create and maintain editorial workflows.
- Sourcing and securing assets for video and promotional content.
- Assisting with archiving of full video project files and asset packages.
Experience and skills:
- Experience with video production—from concept through completion
- At least 2 years of professional experience creating motion graphics and videos in Adobe Premiere and After Effects
- Strong technical skills with post-production workflows (remote editing workflow experience is a plus)
- Photoshop and design experience is a plus
- Music & sound editing a significant plus but not critical (e.g., mixing and mastering final exports, sweetening VO, etc.)
- Creative drive to explore new approaches to developing content for the Kite & Key brand
- Interest in social media and platform-specific content creation
- Ability to work well in a team setting
- Detail oriented and responsible with deadlines
