Trinity University is seeking an accomplished multimedia professional who combines exceptional video production expertise with the creative vision, project leadership, and hands-on technical skills to transform ideas into compelling visual experiences.
Serving as a senior-level visual storyteller and lead multimedia producer within Strategic Communications & Marketing, this role takes ownership of multimedia initiatives from initial concept and creative development through production, implementation, and final delivery. With an emphasis on high-quality video production and photography, this individual will develop engaging content that strengthens the University's brand and connects with audiences across digital platforms, social media, marketing campaigns, websites, and print publications.
