JUNIOR EDITOR


Location: Cape Town, South Africa (studio-based, with on-location shoots)

Reports to: Creative Producer & Senior Editor

Type: Full-time

Salary: Market-related, based on experience


About Waterkant Studio

Waterkant Studio is a hospitality content studio based in Cape Town. We produce strategy, content, and media libraries for a group of hospitality brands, including a wine farm and restaurant, family vineyards, and UK-based partners. Our work spans branded video, photography, podcast production, and on-location shoots.


The Role

We're looking for a Junior Editor to join our small production team. You'll work across video and audio content — cutting footage from on-location shoots, assembling podcast episodes, and maintaining our media library — under the direction of the Creative Producer & Senior Editor. This isn't a button-pusher role: we need someone with a cinematic eye and a feel for story, who can take direction and cut in service of the group's bigger picture.
*If you're driven, creative, and excited to produce high-quality work, we'd love to see what you can bring to the team.


Responsibilities

  • Assist the senior editor with all aspects of the post-production workflow
  • Edit video content for client deliverables: short-form social cuts, long-form brand films, and on-location shoot footage
  • Assemble podcast episodes, including audio clean-up, basic mixing and sound syncing
  • Organise, label, and archive raw and edited footage in the studio's media library
  • Colour grade and colour correct footage to a consistent studio standard
  • Add motion graphics, titles, and lower-thirds where required
  • Export review versions and final deliverables in multiple formats and aspect ratios for different platforms
  • Support on-set logistics for on-location shoots as needed (equipment prep, backup, file transfer)
  • Work efficiently to meet production schedules and turnaround deadlines set by the Creative Producer and Senior Editor
  • Maintain version control and naming conventions across projects

Requirements

No muggles allowed.

  • 1–2 years' experience editing video professionally (freelance, agency, or in-house)
  • Cinematic eye — a strong, instinctive sense of composition and shot selection
  • Storyteller — can shape footage into a narrative, not just cut it together
  • Strong offline editing capability in both DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro
  • Proficient in Frame.io for review and approval workflows
  • Takes direction well and edits in service of the group's bigger picture, not just the brief in front of them
  • Understanding of codecs, frame rates, and file management for multi-camera and drone footage
  • Based in or able to commute to Cape Town


Nice to Have

  • Experience creating motion graphics, animated titles, and branded visual assets (Extra points)
  • Basic understanding of sound design
  • Experience editing podcast or long-form interview content
  • Photography or on-location production experience


What We Offer

  • Direct mentorship from the studio's Creative Producer & Senior Editor
  • Hands-on experience across video, podcast, and photography production
  • Exposure to hospitality and lifestyle brand content work, including on-location shoots
