Editorial Assistant (Remote, UK) (Junior)

Dexerto is looking for an Editorial Assistant to help with Social Media Video content. Much of this content will be based on esports tournament coverage, so we require a talented, ambitious and passionate individual who is looking to get an opportunity in esports.

You will be expected to provide essential support for the Social Media Video Executive. This will include watching original esports videos and selecting the engaging clips for social media, transcribing for subtitles, and administrative jobs such as logging every video we produce on a spreadsheet.

As a result you will need to have a strong working knowledge of all major esports, including CSGO, Valorant, Call of Duty and League of Legends. Given that a lot of the videos we produce will be based on esports tournaments, it will involve some weekend work.

You’ll need to have good experience of using social media, either professionally or personally, while writing experience is also essential as you will need to craft copy for some social media posts.

Finally, you’ll have a good work ethic, are able to listen to instructions, and willing to assist in any tasks you are required to do for the Dexerto team
