Senior YouTube Video Editor (Remote)
Subject line when applying: “I actually read the instructions”
We’re looking for a sharp, creative, and detail-obsessed YouTube Video Editor to join our content team. If you live and breathe story pacing, thumbnails, retention curves — and know how to turn 45 minutes of ramble into 10 minutes of gold — keep reading.
This is not your typical chop-and-trim gig. We’re producing YouTube-first content for real estate creators building real brands. Think: storytelling that sticks, pacing that keeps viewers hooked, and visuals that actually matter.
What you'll do:
Edit long-form YouTube videos that are clean, compelling, and built for retention.
Craft tight intros, strong hooks, and mid-video resets that drive watch time.
Suggest titles, choose thumbnails, and think strategically about viewer engagement.
Repurpose long-form content into YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikToks.
Enhance videos with music, captions, motion graphics, and relevant b-roll.
Collaborate with our creative team and real estate clients to elevate their voice and message.
What you bring:
2–3+ years of experience editing YouTube-first content.
Strong understanding of YouTube pacing, retention, and viewer psychology.
Expertise with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve.
Ability to edit clean audio, sharp visuals, and invisible cuts.
Self-sufficient workflow with strong communication and deadline discipline.
Bonus: Experience editing in business, real estate, or finance verticals.
Success in this role looks like:
30–50%+ average viewer retention on long-form edits.
Consistent 2–3 week edit buffer per client.
Brand-aligned visuals and tone — every time.
High satisfaction from both internal and client teams.
Pay & growth:
Pay starts at $8.50–$11.00 USD/hour, depending on experience.
All roles begin with a paid 30–60 day trial to ensure fit and workflow.
Grow into full-time editor, creative strategist, or account lead as you deliver results.
High performers are first in line for internal promotions — we love promoting from within.
