Content Producer & Video Editor

About HonestReporting

HonestReporting is a leading information watchdog organization dedicated to exposing bias and inaccuracy in coverage of Israel across news media, social media, and AI platforms. We hold journalists, influencers, outlets, and platforms accountable — and we do it with rigor, credibility, and impact. Our growing social media department produces content that reaches millions of people, and we’re looking for a talented Content Producer & Editor to help us do it even better.

About the Role

You’ll be cutting social-first video content primarily short-form vertical reels in a news-analysis, Vox-style format that informs, challenges, and activates our audience across all major platforms. This is not a pure post-production role. We want someone who’s part of the creative conversation from the start: contributing ideas in brainstorms, shaping how stories are told, and seeing projects through from conceptualization to final cut.

You’ll work day-to-day with a team that is deeply committed to the mission and fluent in social media, and you’ll have real input into the visual language and editorial voice of the brand.

What You’ll Do

• Edit and produce short-form, social-first vertical video content (Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, etc.)

• Work within a team of writers and on-camera talent to create polished content in a fast-paced news cycle

• Take on video projects across the wider organization as needed

• Help develop and maintain a consistent visual identity across platforms

• Contribute to post-production workflows, including motion graphics in After Effects

• Support podcast post-production as needed

What We’re Looking For

• 3 to 5+ years of professional video editing experience

• Expert-level Adobe Premiere Pro non-negotiable

• Solid working knowledge of Adobe After Effects (motion graphics, lower thirds, transitions)

• A strong portfolio demonstrating social-first, short-form video editing: news, documentary, or analysis formats a big plus

• Genuine passion for and fluency in Israel-related news: you follow the conversation closely, across media, politics, and the broader discourse

• Deep alignment with HonestReporting’s mission to combat anti-Israel bias and antisemitism

• Comfortable working remotely and collaborating across time zones with an Israel-based team

• Reliable, self-directed, and able to manage multiple projects simultaneously

• Audio editing / podcast post-production experience - a plus

• Background in journalism or news media - a plus
