A new role to Stitch Fix, the Video Director/Editor will be responsible for bringing stories to life with his or her broad-based production background and desire to collaborate across the creative teams. Responsibilities include shooting and editing content within our in-house studio for use across digital, broadcast and social media platforms—short form, long form and everything in between—and you will be responsible for handling projects from concept to delivery. The Video Director/Editor will work closely with Producers, Stylists, creative teams & social media teams to create compelling content across all of our lines of business and geographies.
The right candidate will be inspired by the opportunity to build out our in-house video capabilities—which will run in partnership with our extensive still photography team—getting the chance to push creative boundaries and develop an exceptional reel of work while developing mission-critical tooling and workflow. We need a leader and a great teammate that can shift gears quickly, roll up his or her sleeves to test new ideas, and deliver exceptional work.
