Description

The Video Librarian role is key to our media operation in Alicante and around the world. The Ocean Race gathers thousands of hours of material during the round-the-world race, and a large amount of content between races. The efficient ingest, organisation and logging of this material is vital to media and news distribution, social media content creation, documentary production and delivering commercial value for our teams, partners and sponsors.

You will play a lead role in the creation of a new video archive alongside our world-class technology team, and you will also be in charge of ingesting, organising and logging content until the end of the next The Ocean Race in the summer of 2023.

You will have relevant experience in this area in a professional environment, and an understanding of good file management practice, metadata and media production workflows.

You will also have a meticulous attention to detail and be comfortable creating and enforcing workflows and systems.

This role is based in The Ocean Race headquarters in Alicante as part of the Communications team.
