The Verge is seeking a highly talented junior director to join our team in creating unique live and non-fiction video content for our growing social platforms. Our video staff is part of The Verge’s editorial team; this is a job for journalists and storytellers above all.

As a junior director, you will be embedded with our social team, creating daily live and produced videos for our off-platform channels, primarily Facebook. Part of the production process will include working with our producers to create original and serialized content as well as identifying editorial content that will translate into awesome video. Additionally you will be able to script copy for video as needed and engage in using multimedia tools to tell stories: graphics, stop motion, and animation. This position offers full creative freedom to jump into the deep end of the internet backed by a slew of kick-ass editorial support. Enthusiasm, leadership, an ability to juggle multiple projects, and initiative to kick-start projects in a busy work environment is a must.

Please provide two finished pieces with description of role and a reel.
