Video Editor

Paramount is a global media and entertainment organisation with some of the best known and loved brands in the world. In Australia, we deliver premium content on any screen, anytime, anywhere, via an enhanced viewing ecosystem.

We pride ourselves on creating content that gets people talking. What’s more, you can watch and stream for free all these great shows (and more) on 10 as well as 10 Drama, 10 Comedy and Nickelodeon, and a vast array of Free Ad-Supported Streaming TV, known as FAST channels, as well as our subscription video on demand service, Paramount+.

This is a permanent full-time role based in our Sydney office in Pyrmont.

Enough about us! What you’ll do as a Video Editor: 

You’ll combine your creative flair and technical skills to produce broadcast-quality video content for News, Programming and Production across both linear and digital platforms. Day-to-day, you’ll support our fast-paced news operations, predominantly reformatting international content and editing assets for 10 News programs, while also gaining exposure to a diverse mix of projects and productions. Working with state-of-the-art editing tools in a supportive, high-morale team, you’ll have the chance to expand your skills, collaborate across business units, and engage in storytelling that informs and inspires.
This is a place where variety is the norm, teamwork is strong, and learning opportunities are everywhere.

Functions will also include: 

• Manage the ingest, asset management, quality control, distribution, and receipt of News media assets across the network, affiliates, and third parties
• Edit and deliver high-quality media content for News, Programming and Production using Avid Media Composer and other NLE tools
• Prepare, QC, and adapt broadcast programs to meet technical and compliance standards across free-to-air, catch-up, and streaming platforms
• Operate studio EVS systems (IP-Director, LSM-VIA and X-File) to support live studio productions, archive, and restore media assets
• Contribute to pre-production and creative editing processes, ensuring all content is delivered accurately, on time, and to broadcast-ready standards.

What are we looking for in a Video Editor? What’s important?  

• Proven experience with non-linear editing systems (preferably Avid Media Composer) and technical literacy across video production workflows
• Ability to thrive under tight deadlines while maintaining attention to detail, accuracy, and editorial integrity in a fast-paced news production environment
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with a customer-focused approach and the ability to build positive relationships across teams
• Creative mindset with a genuine interest in storytelling and crafting engaging content, alongside adaptability to reformat, edit, and deliver content for multiple platforms
• A motivated self-starter who embraces new technology, works proactively, and is flexible to work a 7-day rotating roster with early and late shiftbands.
