Spar & Bernstein Legal

Creative Video Editor & Social Media Manager

New York City, NY In person Full-time

About the Role

  • Spar & Bernstein is seeking a creative, strategic, and results-driven Video Editor & Social Media Manager to elevate our social media presence and help turn engaging content into new clients.
  • We're not looking for someone who simply edits footage and posts videos. We want someone who understands what makes people stop scrolling, keeps them watching, and inspires them to take action.
  • You'll transform raw footage, legal commentary, and trending topics into compelling short-form content while contributing original ideas and creative strategies.
  • Our goal isn't just views and followers. It's building trust, generating leads, and attracting clients.

Key Responsibilities

  • Edit engaging short-form videos for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.
  • Develop compelling hooks, storytelling, pacing, captions, and visual effects that maximize audience retention.
  • Identify opportunities to restructure and improve raw footage.
  • Create attention-grabbing titles, captions, and calls to action.
  • Manage social media publishing, scheduling, and content calendars.
  • Research trends, develop original content ideas, and identify opportunities for growth.
  • Analyze video performance, engagement, and lead generation to continuously improve content.
  • Take ownership of projects from initial footage through final publishing with minimal supervision.
  • 3–5+ years of experience in video editing, content creation, or social media management.
  • Strong portfolio of high-performing short-form video content.
  • Expert understanding of TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts.
  • Proficiency in Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, or similar tools.
  • Excellent creative instincts, storytelling ability, and understanding of audience retention.
  • Experience with social media analytics and performance-driven content.
  • Self-motivated, organized, and capable of working independently.
  • Experience in lead-generation marketing or professional services is a plus.

What We're Looking For

Someone who thinks like a creator, not just an editor.

You should be able to take an idea or raw video and make it significantly better without needing step-by-step direction. We value creativity, initiative, strong judgment, and an understanding that great content should drive real business results.
