Tuyển dụng Editor & Motion Designer

Company description

Make work that’s hard to ignore.

We call ourselves a Nothing Is Impossible company. We believe great ideas can change culture and shape society for the better, and we’re looking for interesting, talented people to help us make kick-arse work from our Auckland office.

At Saatchi & Saatchi, our ambition is simple: Making brands unignorable. We create big, beautiful and effective ideas that deliver unseen growth for businesses across Aotearoa and the world.

We’re looking for an

Editor / Motion Designer who can bring those ideas to life through brilliant editing, motion and moving image craft.

Whether you’re an experienced intermediate ready for your next step or already operating at a senior level, we’re more interested in the quality of your work, your creative instincts and what’s on your reel than your current title.

About the job

This is a hands-on creative role sitting at the intersection of editing and motion design.

You’ll work closely with our creative teams and production partners across everything from social content and motion graphics to campaign films, case studies, hype reels and longer-form pieces.

Some jobs will need a beautiful edit. Others will lean heavily into motion. Often, you’ll be doing both.

We need someone who can take a project from raw footage and an idea through to a polished final product, bringing their own creative eye to the work along the way. You’ll be comfortable contributing ideas, questioning a brief and recognising when the work can be pushed further.

What you’ll be doing

Editing content across social, digital, broadcast and longer-form formats

Creating motion graphics and 2D animation that strengthen the creative idea

Collaborating with creative teams from the beginning of a project through to final delivery

Turning raw footage into compelling offline edits, then taking the work through motion, colour and finishing

Preparing and delivering work across broadcast, digital and social channels

Managing multiple projects and formats without losing sight of the details

Keeping project files, versions and assets meticulously organised

Working with our production partners when a project calls for additional specialist craft

Planning work effectively and communicating clearly about timings, feedback and what’s achievable

There’s plenty of variety. One day you could be working on fast-turnaround social content or a client hype reel, and the next on a motion-heavy campaign or longer-form piece of storytelling.

What we’re looking for

First and foremost, you’re a great editor with strong motion design skills and the ambition to keep pushing your craft.

You might be an experienced intermediate looking for more ownership, or a senior who’s already comfortable leading the craft across a project.

You’ll bring

• A strong reel demonstrating both editing and motion design capability
• Strong skills in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects
• Experience with DaVinci Resolve and/or Lumetri Colour
• Experience in an agency, production company, post-production environment, broadcaster or similar creative setting
• Strong visual storytelling instincts and an eye for detail
• An understanding of technical delivery requirements across broadcast, digital and social
• The ability to manage multiple projects, timelines and rounds of feedback
• A collaborative approach and the confidence to contribute your perspective
• A positive, curious and creative mindset
• Experience with 3D, shooting, grading, Cinema 4D, Redshift or digital banner builds would be a bonus, but we don’t expect you to tick every box.
• Why Saatchi & Saatchi?
• You’ll join a diverse collective of creative people who are hungry for great work, respectful of each other and optimistic about what creativity can do.
• You’ll work across different clients, formats and creative challenges alongside people who care deeply about making work that gets noticed.

Because ultimately, that’s what we’re here to do

• Make brands unignorable.
• Your reel matters more to us than your job title. If you love editing, have a strong eye for motion and want to make work people notice, we’d love to see what you can do.
• Send us your CV and, most importantly, your reel.
