Online Editor (Beauty/FMCG)

A Hybrid working model

We believe the best work happens when we're together, fostering creativity, collaboration, and connection. That's why we’ve adopted a hybrid approach, with teams in the office around four days a week. If you require accommodations or flexibility, please discuss this with the hiring team during the interview process.

WPP Production is seeking an experienced Online Editor with a strong technical background to join our busy post-production department. The ideal candidate brings deep expertise in finishing high-end beauty and cosmetics content, with a keen eye for skin tone accuracy, product detail, and the elevated aesthetic standards that premium beauty brands demand.

Primary editing duties include the online finishing of broadcast and digital commercials, with a focus on the beauty and FMCG category. The role requires ensuring all deliverables meet broadcast legal and technical standards across multiple markets, including but not limited to Singapore and the broader APAC region.

A solid understanding of end-to-end post-production workflows — including VFX, colour grading, motion graphics, and audio finishing — is essential. You will be expected to perform confidently in client-attended sessions, advise producers on timings and technical feasibility, and maintain a high standard of service delivery.
