Are you someone who loves editing multiple projects at once and working on films that really make a difference? Then this could definitely be for you!

Inspired is looking for a passionate and enthusiastic Editor to assist our multi award-winning in-house creative team, producing branded content, impact films, human interest stories, short form social films and animations for some of the UK’s leading brands and agencies.
