We’re looking for a creative and detail-oriented Video Editor to join our team and support the day-to-day creation of video content that showcases the achievements and stories of our students. You’ll play a key role in helping us tell authentic, engaging stories through video across multiple platforms.

Who We Are

Across the country, college completion rates are abysmal. In 2025, just under 25% (23.5%) of the country’s population 25 years or older has attained a Bachelor’s degree or higher. Traditionally underserved populations — like working students, parent learners, and those who are the first in their families to attend college — disproportionately suffer.

We think this status quo is unacceptable. Rivet School is college built for real life — a new type of college experience designed from the ground up to support traditionally underserved students. Rivet School students earn an accredited, job-relevant bachelor’s degree in as little as 2-3 years, and for around $10,000 total. We’re part of Southern New Hampshire University’s **Community Partnerships portfolio** —  a network of innovative organizations that use a unique university-to-community model.

Rivet School is a fast-growing nonprofit currently supporting ~450 students across the nation (including California, Chicago, and the Gulf South), and aiming to grow to 800 students by 2027. We’re a tight-knit, supportive, and diverse team.

Why We Need You

As the Video Editor, you’ll work directly with Bianca Delgado, our Senior Marketing Lead, to:

• Edit raw footage into engaging content, ensuring high-quality storytelling, pacing, and audio/visual consistency.
• Create one-off highlight videos for special events such as virtual graduation ceremonies and milestone achievements.
• Occasionally support in capturing video content (interviews, b-roll) for local students
• Repurpose content for multiple platforms (website, social media, digital campaigns, etc.) while adhering to platform-specific best practices.
• Collaborate with the Marketing team to ensure videos align with Rivet School’s brand tone and messaging.
• Leverage brand elements to create motion graphics, text overlays, captions, and other enhancements as needed to improve engagement.
• Organize and maintain media assets in Asana and Google Drive for easy access by the team.
• Collaborate with the Senior Marketing Lead to align on upcoming projects, meet deliverable expectations, and maintain consistent storytelling across platforms.
