About Nexford University
Nexford is a next-generation online university focused on powering global career success. We're bold, empowering, modern, and human — and we’re growing fast. Our learners span over 100 countries. Our marketing content should be as innovative and world-class as the education we provide.
We’re looking for a wildly creative Video Editor who lives and breathes social media, storytelling, and high-quality post-production. If you can turn raw footage into scroll-stopping TikToks, thumb-stopping Reels, and clean, professional webinar clips — we want to meet you. We're looking for someone who can both edit raw footage and create new videos from scratch using a range of tools.
