From the employer

BENO is a Dubai-based luxury lifestyle experiences company, expanding its in-house media team across yacht and watersports, automotive, desert experiences, and lifestyle production. We're hiring an in-office editor and videographer to own post-production across the library, working directly alongside the Head of Media and the marketing/media team on a daily basis.

Role Overview
A hands-on, in-office role built around post-production: editing, color, and finishing BENO's video content across maritime, automotive, desert, events, social media, and brand commercial work, in direct collaboration with the Head of Media and the marketing/media team, with videography responsibilities as needed. The role is evaluated primarily on editing craft; camera work is a supporting skill.

Responsibilities

Edit and finish versatile video content across maritime (yachts, watersports), automotive, desert experiences, events, brand commercial, and luxury lifestyle productions, covering structure, pacing, and color
Build pacing, emotional storytelling, transitions, and visually engaging compositions consistent with BENO's cinematic approach
Fluent in social-media-native editing, current with platform-specific trends, techniques, and specs for Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and TikTok
Manage footage ingest, organization, and backup through the department's on-site NAS system
Color correct in DaVinci Resolve and handle sound design
Deliver multiple formats optimized for Reels, TikTok, YouTube, paid ads, and other platform specs
Turn around same-day and time-sensitive edits for events, social, and brand needs
Maintain a consistent file-naming and archive structure across the production library
Operate as videographer on productions when needed, covering additional angles, behind-the-scenes footage, or full shoots as required
Coordinate handoffs with the remote editor on overflow or lower-priority projects
Communicate clearly on timelines and flag delays early
Flexible to work outside standard hours or on weekends when a production requires it

Qualifications

Strong editing portfolio or reel; this is the primary basis for hiring, ahead of camera work
Strong proficiency in DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro; working knowledge of sound design
Strong AI literacy: comfortable using tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and Higgsfield across editing, ideation, and day-to-day production or communication tasks. This is a core requirement, not a bonus skill
Presentable, professional, and clear in communication with the in-house team, partners, and anyone else involved in the department's productions
Fluent in English, written and spoken, able to communicate and understand everything related to the scope of the work
Skilled at cinematic, emotionally-driven cuts, not just fast-paced trend edits
Comfortable working in-office daily and iterating on cuts in real time alongside the team
Organized and disciplined with file and archive management
Working knowledge of video camera operation (Sony mirrorless and Cinema Line systems and lenses) for shoots and backup footage
Knowledgeable in standard production tools and platforms (Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, Google Meet, Trello, and other tools relevant to the role)
Comfortable working in physically demanding conditions when required, for example aboard boats or in the desert, given the range of environments across BENO's productions
Comfortable managing multiple projects under deadline
Minimum 5 years of professional experience (Dubai experience preferred)

Preferred Qualifications

Experience editing luxury lifestyle, automotive, maritime, brand promotional, or documentary-style content
Understanding of Dubai's visual identity and storytelling style
Familiarity with NAS-based or local media workflows
Motion graphics or simple animation skills (After Effects)

Working Hours
9:00 to 18:00 (Dubai time), in-office, with flexibility for shoots or urgent deliverables outside standard hours.
