Senior Video Storyteller
Senior Video Storyteller responsible for owning Socure's video content end-to-end, from creative vision and scripting to decentralized production, post-production, and distribution with a focus on high-impact social video. Requires senior-level experience in video production, distributed capture models, hands-on editing, and building creative networks.
About the job
What You'll Own
- The creative vision and narrative integrity of Socure's video work, from concept through final cut.
- Scriptwriting and storytelling that ladders directly to Socure's brand and business goals.
- Best-in-class social video, tuned to the platform, the audience, and the moment.
- A decentralized capture model—equipping and directing distributed teammates and freelance crews to shoot remotely.
- The pre- and post-production standards (shot lists, capture specs, file handling, brand guidelines) that keep decentralized footage edit-ready and coherent.
- Creative direction on set and at distance: casting and hiring video talent, briefing crews, and protecting quality across every shoot.
- Project logistics, budgets, and timelines—managed in service of the story, not at its expense.
- Post-production quality: editing, motion, sound, color, and versioning across cuts and formats.
The Ideal Background
The person we're looking for has likely operated at a senior creative producer or director level and has a track record of standout, original work—the kind of content people remember. Beyond craft, they've built creative capability, not just executed against it: scaling teams or distributed creative networks from the ground up, and managing external partners, vendors, and freelance talent to deliver at a level a small in-house team couldn't reach alone.
They're equally fluent across social, digital, and broadcast, comfortable owning the full arc—strategy, ideation, production, and distribution—and they know how to negotiate and manage the relationships that make ambitious video possible. Above all, they bring a relentless, self-directed bias: they go deeper, iterate faster, and don't quit on hard problems.
What You Bring
- Proven experience owning video end to end—from blank page and blinking cursor to final export.
- A portfolio that shows storytelling range and results, with real depth in social video.
- Strong hands-on craft across cameras, lighting, audio, and editing (Premiere, Resolve, or equivalent)—enough to set the standard, even when others hold the camera.
- Experience building or operating distributed/remote capture models, and managing vendors, partners, and freelance talent.
- Producer-grade instincts for budgeting, scheduling, and on-set direction—used to protect the work, not bury it in process.
- A relentless, self-directed approach to hard creative problems.
