Job Description

About Wonder Studios

Wonder Studios is an AI-native creative production studio based in London. We work with global brands, broadcasters, film producers and music artists: building campaigns, content and IP using cutting-edge AI tools alongside traditional craft. We move fast, make ambitious work, and are building a team that does both with equal confidence.

The Role

We're looking for a Senior Editor to join our Production team. This is a hands-on, high-output role. You'll be the person who makes things happen across client projects, social content, pitch materials and internal assets. You'll be senior enough to lead a small team of editors, and fast enough to turn a brief around the same day when needed. We want someone who comes from a commercial, social or music video experience of cutting, ideally with experience with AE for a well rounded approach to post. 

We're looking for someone who thinks in terms of output, craft and throughput, and who takes pride in both the quality of the work and the speed at which it gets made. 

What You'll DoEditing & Content
  • Lead editor across client deliverables, social content, pitch videos and internal projects
  • Create fast-turnaround social assets and brand content often working across multiple briefs simultaneously
  • Use After Effects for motion graphics, compositing, titles and visual polish
  • Collaborate with Creative Directors and producers to understand briefs and deliver to time
Team Leadership
  • Day-to-day management of the junior editor and freelance editors as the team grows
  • Build and maintain a small editors pod; delegating briefs, reviewing cuts, maintaining quality
  • Work with Production to plan edit schedules, flag capacity issues and manage turnaround expectations
Cross-functional
  • Support pitch production: quick-turn concept videos, demo reels, deck animations
  • Collaborate with AI artists and creative technologists: you don't need to be an AI specialist but you should be curious and adaptable
What We're Looking ForEssential
  • 4+ years of editing experience in a commercial, agency or production environment
  • After Effects skills: motion graphics, compositing, text animation, visual effects
  • Fast output mindset: comfortable with high volume without losing quality
  • Organised self-starter: can manage multiple briefs, set your own priorities and deliver without being chased
  • Senior enough to give direction and manage junior editors effectively
  • Strong communication: proactive, clear, reliable
Desirable
  • Familiarity with AI creative tools (Runway, Kling, Luma, Midjourney, or similar)
  • Experience editing social-first content Reels, TikTok, YouTube formats
  • Ability to shoot on a camera (helpful but not a deciding factor)
  • Experience in a fast-paced creative studio or production company environment
Who Thrives Here
  • People who care about the quality of the frame and the quality of the process equally
  • Fast movers who don't use speed as an excuse for sloppiness
  • People who are honest when something isn't working and proactive about fixing it
  • Curious minds: AI is changing how we make things and we want people who find that exciting, not threatening

Skills Required

  • 4+ years of editing experience in a commercial, agency or production environment
  • After Effects skills: motion graphics, compositing, text animation, visual effects
  • Fast output mindset: comfortable with high volume without losing quality
  • Organised self-starter: can manage multiple briefs, set priorities and deliver
  • Strong communication: proactive, clear, reliable
