ABOUT YACHTBUYER

YachtBuyer is redefining how people discover and experience yachts online.

Combining expert knowledge with innovative digital storytelling, we create engaging video content that helps buyers and enthusiasts explore the world's finest yachts in a way that is informative, accessible and inspiring. From in-depth yacht reviews and exclusive walkthroughs to industry insights and major boat show coverage, our content is trusted by a global audience and respected throughout the marine industry.

Creativity sits at the heart of everything we produce. We are constantly evolving our content, embracing new ideas, technologies and formats to keep our productions fresh, engaging and ahead of the curve. We encourage experimentation, value original thinking and strive to create content that stands apart in both quality and execution.

Working closely with the world's leading yacht builders, designers and brands, we produce premium digital content that reaches hundreds of thousands of viewers across YouTube and social media every month. Our ambition is simple: to set the benchmark for yacht media by creating content that is as innovative as the industry it represents.

Here's how I'd integrate the revised responsibilities into the full advert so it flows naturally and presents a clear picture of the role.

THE ROLE

We are looking for a talented and highly creative Creative Video Editor to play a key role in producing YachtBuyer's industry-leading YouTube content.

This is a hands-on role where editing is your primary focus. You'll transform footage into engaging, informative and visually compelling videos that showcase some of the world's finest yachts. From in-depth yacht reviews and exclusive walkthroughs to interviews and international boat show coverage, your work will help define the quality and creativity of our content.

We're looking for someone with exceptional editing skills, a strong instinct for storytelling and an eye for detail. While the role is predominantly edit-based, you'll also have the opportunity to support filming on location when required, bringing a creative eye and an understanding of how to capture footage that elevates the final production.

Working closely with our presenters, producers and editorial team, you'll contribute ideas throughout the creative process and help us continue to raise the standard of yacht media.
