JOB OVERVIEW

LuxNomads is a fast-growing global brand helping people relocate abroad and live a luxury, location-independent lifestyle.

We are hiring a Short-Form Video Editor to turn long-form talking videos into high-performing TikTok / Reels content.

This is NOT basic editing.
We are looking for someone who understands:
X hooks
X retention
X pacing
X storytelling

If you only know how to add captions and cut clips, this role is not for you.

RESPONSIBILITIES
• Edit 5 long-form videos per week into short-form clips
• Cut videos into 90–120 second high-retention clips
• Add:
• Burned-in captions
• Strong hooks in the first 3 seconds
• Clean zoom cuts and pacing
• Maintain a premium, clean style (not spammy TikTok edits)
• Optimize videos for:
• Retention
• Clarity
• Mobile viewing
• Deliver edits within 24–48 hours

CONTENT STYLE
• Talking-head educational videos
• Topics: relocation, visas, digital nomad lifestyle
• Tone: confident, aspirational, premium

Think: Alex Hormozi meets luxury travel brand

WORKFLOW
• You receive: 5 raw videos per week (5–7 minutes each)
• You deliver: multiple short clips per video
• Files organized via Google Drive
• Communication via Slack or WhatsApp

REQUIREMENTS
• Proven experience editing short-form content
• Strong understanding of:
• Hooks
• Retention editing
• Viral structure
• Experience with TikTok / Instagram Reels formatting
• Fast turnaround (24–48 hours)
• Strong attention to detail

BONUS
• Experience with Metricool
• Experience editing for personal brands
• Ability to suggest better cuts or clip ideas

IMPORTANT

DO NOT APPLY if:
• You only do basic cuts and captions
• You don’t understand retention or hooks
• You cannot deliver within 48 hours

This is not basic editing. If you only know how to cut clips and add captions, do not apply.

We care about performance and consistency. Strong performers will receive raises and long-term work.
