Video Producer

NJI is an agency where creativity knows no borders. We navigate the complexities of public affairs, charting new paths across industries and continents to deliver work that sparks conversation, shifts perception, and inspires action. The Role We are seeking a Video Producer who turns inspiration into execution. Someone who can build compelling visuals, deconstruct them, and drive a project from concept through post with intention. This role demands both craft and vision. You can interpret creative direction, or originate it, and translate it into work that feels cinematic, deliberate, and elevated. You know the camera is only the starting point. Through editing, pacing, and visual treatment, you shape the full narrative arc. On set, you bring clarity. In post, you bring discipline. You collaborate seamlessly with directors from varied backgrounds, clients on tight timelines, and crews of every scale. You maintain a clear creative throughline from pre‑production to final delivery. You do more than execute. You help shape the work. You develop storyboards, refine shot lists, explore graphical treatments, and push our video practice forward. You are curious about what is next, whether that is virtual production, emerging formats, or new ways to tell complex stories with precision. You see the frame. You build the story. You deliver the standard. Note: This is a hybrid position that requires being in our Georgetown office three days per week on a flexible schedule. Our team meets for lunch every Wednesday, and we encourage crew members to join us in person for two additional days of their choosing. This job requires ample seasons of travel.
