Bloomberg is looking for a Content Producer & Video Editor to join our team in Hong Kong (HKT). This hybrid role sits at the intersection of live news, breaking clips, interviews, and digital distribution. You will create and edit video content while navigating Bloomberg's house systems, requiring close collaboration across teams and global offices.
What You'll Do
- Edit fast and well across formats, including breaking news clips, VOs/SOTs, multicam interviews, digital-first pieces, and occasional long-form specials.
- Own visual polish: cut produced opens; build and update templated headshots, charts, full screens and maps in Photoshop/After Effects; ensure brand consistency and metadata hygiene.
- Support live shows: deliver clean, accurate elements on tight turnarounds for segments from 7 am–12 pm HKT; pivot quickly as news evolves.
- Package content for every platform: prepare for the Bloomberg Terminal, broadcast, web and social—meeting specs, aspect ratios, volume standards, captioning, and platform-specific best practices.
- Pitch proactively: surface smart visuals, treatments and editorial angles; bring creativity that elevates segments and digital reach.
- Stay organized: follow best practices for project/multicam organization, shared storage, versioning, and handoffs; maintain tidy bins and timelines.
- Collaborate widely with executive producers, show producers, assignment editors, journalists and other editors.
- Work within Bloomberg house systems—asset management, templates, newsroom planning tools, distribution workflows, and the Bloomberg Terminal.
- Take on early starts, late wraps and regular weekend/holiday shifts as assigned; fill in across shows and desk needs.
What We're Looking For
- Demonstrated experience in a fast-paced video production environment, such as a newsroom, broadcast studio, digital media outlet, agency, or publishing platform.
- Fluency in Adobe Creative Cloud—especially Premiere Pro (multicam, audio mixing, captions), Photoshop/Illustrator (image prep, charts, templated lower-thirds/full screens) and After Effects.
- Experience with cloud-based editing and collaborative workflows.
- Demonstrated ability to handle breaking news with speed, accuracy, great attention to detail and solid editorial judgment.
- Working knowledge of social publishing workflows and newsroom planning tools; strong understanding of aspect ratios, platform specs, and metadata.
- Excellent communication skills; proven team player with a strong sense of ownership, follow-through and quality control.
- Flexibility to work early mornings (as early as 4 am HKT), late nights, weekends and holidays as news warrants.
- Fluency in written and spoken English.
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent professional experience.
