Monster.com seeks video editor/producer

Monster – the global leader in helping connect jobs to people – is seeking a video editor/producer to join its content and communications team.

Are you a visual storyteller who likes to see a project from conception to finished product, from ideating to producing to shooting to editing?  Do you want to create content that helps people find their personal passions and land their dream jobs?  Then this is the position for you.

In this role, you will collaborate with content editors and social media managers to develop new series aimed at job seekers for our site and social platforms. The ideal candidate will be a creative ideas machine, with great editorial judgment and experience producing documentary and narrative style videos.

You should be interested in how to translate workforce trends—from the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ monthly jobs report to emerging resume formats to company profiles—into videos suited to Monster’s audiences.

You’ll also have a key role in the bigger picture: As we redefine our content strategy to maximize audience engagement, traffic, branding, and revenue, you’ll be asked to think creatively about new ways to engage our audience through video, both as a whole and key segments.

Essential Functions:

  • Ideate, write, produce, shoot and edit digital videos and series for our site and social platforms that deliver value and utility
  • Help us develop a video distribution strategy
  • Monitor audience behaviors via analytics tools, and respond by delivering video content that resonates
  • Develop a calendar of video plans

Qualifications:

  • Belief in Monster’s mission to inspire people to “find better” in their working lives
  • 1-5 years’ experience producing and editing video for the web, ideally with a specialty in “how-to” content and in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment
  • Skill at shooting video and capturing audio using DSLR/mirrorless cameras and digital cinema cameras like the  Canon C100 or Canon C300
