Bully Pulpit Interactive is an outcomes agency made up of creatives, strategists and data scientists.

A growing firm, we sit on both coasts and connect Silicon Valley technology, Madison Avenue creative, Washington policy and real people.

The Opportunity to Make an Impact

We are an ambitious, quickly growing team looking for a Pre-editor (Producer - Video Editor) who can help us compete on a global scale. You are an expert in the field of video production looking for the chance to make an impact for both the biggest brands in the world and the most important, mission-driven organizations fighting for real social change in the US. 

Role Overview: The ideal candidate has 4–6 years of experience producing, filming, and editing social-first video content and ads, with a portfolio that showcases on-trend, creative, social-first, visually compelling work. You should be a versatile storyteller with a strong creative POV who can work both independently and collaboratively, creating content for a wide range of clients—from brands to advocacy groups. 

• Salary range - $75,000 - $85,000
• Expectation to work from one of our offices at least 3 days a week

On a daily basis, you’ll:

• Produce, shoot, and edit short- and long-form scripted social content from start to finish—including picture editing, audio mixing, color grading, and graphic treatments—with a focus on creating on-trend, platform-optimized content for social media.
• Edit digital commercial ads for brands and social change organizations
• Collaborate with creative directors, copywriters, and strategists to align on content goals, while contributing a strong creative point of view throughout the process.
• Source, organize, and manage assets, including scripts, brand guidelines, stock footage, music, and other media
• Prep gear or remote recording tools for shoots
• Bonus points if you have motion graphics, audio editing, or color correction chops

You bring:

• 4-6 years of experience in video production, ideally within the advertising industry.
• You don't just cut clips together; you craft stories with an instinctive sense of rhythm, pacing, and shot selection, evoking emotion through precise cuts, music, and seamless transitions.
• Proven experience as a "one-man band," managing all stages of production—from coordinating pre-production logistics to filming with professional-grade equipment (Black Magic, Alexa, RED) and iPhones, interviewing and directing subjects on set, as well as editing with Adobe Suite (Premiere Pro, After Effects)
• A compelling demo reel and portfolio that shows work you have directed, shot and edited
• A collaborative approach and curious nature. You are open to the ideas and opinions of your teammates and are constantly striving to improve your skill sets and knowledge.
• Bonus points if you’ve produced social content in fast-paced, digital news environments like Vice or Vox
• This role will be expected to travel approximately ~20-40% of the time

Applications without a portfolio will not be considered
