JOB OVERVIEW

We’re a fast-growing brand strategy and education company producing high-quality YouTube content for product-based entrepreneurs.

Our content is polished, strategic, and aligned with a luxury CEO brand aesthetic — but this is also a production-driven environment with real deadlines and consistent output expectations.

We’re looking for a dependable, proactive video editor who thrives in a structured workflow, communicates early when blocked, and can balance speed, quality, and consistency.

If you require loose timelines, constant hand-holding, or extended turnaround windows, this role will not be the right fit.


ROLE SUMMARY
You will edit YouTube videos as part of a collaborative editing team. Each editor is responsible for a portion of the monthly content pipeline to maintain consistent publishing and a growing content buffer.

Monthly Editing Scope Per editor:

A) 3 Long-Form YouTube Videos
Typical length: 10–20 minutes
***Occasionally longer demo/tutorial videos: 20–30 minutes

B) 6 YouTube Shorts

We are actively building toward a 2–4 week content buffer, meaning timely delivery and proactive communication are essential.

Editing Standards (Non-Negotiable)
These standards are expected consistently — not occasionally.

You must be able to produce:
• Color Editing / Color Correction
• Dynamic text overlays (not just transcript captions)
• Clean, tight cuts that maintain pacing and engagement
• Light sound design (swooshes, pops, etc.)
• Motion graphics that enhance the content without cluttering it
• Strong use of brand colors, typography, and CTA placement

You’ll have access to:
- Envato Elements templates
- Sound libraries for music and effects
- Brand guidelines (fonts, colors, logos)
- Asset libraries (photos, b-roll, graphics)
- Clear creative briefs and examples


Types of Videos You'll Edit:
• Long-Form Talking Head Content
• Sit-Down Educational Videos
• Tutorial / Demo Videos
• Occasionally Sponsored Brand Content


Editing Style Reference:
You must be capable of matching the visual pacing and editing style demonstrated in the inspo above. Here are our channel videos below (we'd love to maintain or go above this standard to get as close in quality to the inspo as possible):

Workflow & Communication Expectations
• Turnaround time: 3–7 days per long-form video depending on complexity
• Sponsored content may require priority turnaround
• Editors are expected to communicate proactively, not disappear when stuck

If you are blocked on a task for more than 24 hours, communication is expected immediately.


Compensation Structure:
We believe in clarity up front.

Starting Compensation
$375 per month for:
• 3 long-form YouTube videos (Editing Inspo: ---------- )
• 6 YouTube Shorts (Editing Inspo: ---------- )
• Compensation is based on completed deliverables.


Growth Opportunity
As our content ecosystem expands, additional editing opportunities may become available within the next 60–90 days, including:

• Podcast shorts/reels pulled from podcast episodes
• Repurposed short videos pulled from long form
• “Fake” Podcast-style video edits for IG Reels (example: ---------- )

Editors who demonstrate strong performance and reliability may grow into expanded responsibilities with monthly compensation reaching approximately $900+ as workload increases.


Application Process
Applicants must be reliable, proactive, and comfortable working in a deadline-driven production environment.

To Apply Please submit:
• Portfolio samples (backend links preferred over youtube links)
• Links to videos you have personally edited
• Applications without portfolio samples will not be considered.

Hiring Process
1) Application Review
2) Paid Test Edit
3) Culture & Work Style Assessment
4) Final Interview

We are looking for someone who can start quickly and grow with the team long-term.
