Video Editor - Social Media Content

What will you be doing?

You'll help us turn photos and video footage from our sessions and events into engaging, fun and inspiring content for our social media channels, particularly Instagram Reels.

This is a fantastic opportunity to use your creative skills to support a meaningful cause, help raise awareness of inclusive dance and showcase the incredible children, families and volunteers who make our community so special.

Whether you're an experienced editor or someone looking to build their portfolio and gain experience, we'd love to hear from you. Your creativity could help us reach new audiences, grow our community and spread a little more Flamingo magic!

You would need access to professional video editing software and would work on small specialised activities, for example editing short videos for reels. there may be other technical tasks such as blurring a faces on footage where we don't have photo consent, cutting a longer film video down or merging a few short films together. Another really important task will be adding subtitles to videos too to make them accessible for all.

Hours will be ad-hoc and as and when a need arises, but probably working on one or two small projects per month. 

What are we looking for?

We're looking for someone with professional experience in video editing and creating social media content, who is creative, reliable and passionate about using their skills to support a great cause.

What difference will you make?

This role will make a huge difference in helping us share the impact and joy of Flamingo Chicks with a wider audience. Video is such a powerful way to tell our story, showcase our inclusive dance sessions and celebrate the incredible children and communities we work with.

By creating engaging, eye-catching videos and reels, you'll help us raise awareness of disability inclusion, reach new families, attract potential volunteers and supporters, and grow our community. Your work will help bring our mission to life, showing more people what's possible when every child has the opportunity to dance, connect and belong.
