Remote Position

We are hiring a highly creative, detail-oriented, and coachable Short-Form Video Editor & Social Media Assistant to join our growing real estate media company serving the DMV area.

This is not just an editing role. We are looking for someone who genuinely understands modern short-form content and wants to help grow visibility, engagement, relationships, and overall business opportunities through social media.

You will help create engaging reels and short-form content for real estate agents, listings, behind-the-scenes media, and agent-focused branding across Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

This role starts focused primarily on content creation and editing, but there is strong long-term growth potential for the right person to eventually take on broader social media management responsibilities as the company continues to grow.

If you naturally pay attention to social media trends, understand what makes people stop scrolling, and enjoy helping brands grow online, this may be a great fit for you.

What You’ll Do
• Edit short-form vertical video content optimized for Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook Reels, and YouTube Shorts
• Create engaging, retention-focused edits using strong hooks, pacing, captions, trending audio, and modern editing styles
• Assist with content posting and optimization across multiple platforms
• Maintain organization and consistency across content workflows
• Double-check captions, formatting, audio, exports, thumbnails, and post quality before publishing
• Track engagement trends and key performance metrics over time
• Monitor retention, reach, saves, shares, comments, and overall content performance
• Help identify which content styles and topics are performing best
• Assist with collaboration ideas involving agents, affiliates, and local businesses
• Bring proactive content and growth suggestions to the table instead of simply posting passively
• Help increase overall brand visibility through stronger video distribution and social engagement strategies

Compensation & Growth Path
• Starting pay: $4-$6/hour depending on experience and skill level
• Part-time role to start (approximately 10-12 hours per week)
• Opportunity for increased hours and compensation as responsibilities grow
• Long-term potential to expand into broader social media management and content strategy responsibilities
• Opportunity to grow with a fast-moving real estate media company focused heavily on video and brand expansion

What We’re Looking For
• Strong CapCut editing experience highly preferred
• Strong understanding of short-form content pacing, hooks, captions, and retention-focused editing
• Actively understands and consumes Instagram Reels, TikTok, and modern social content trends
• Extremely detail-oriented and organized
• Reliable and consistent with deadlines
• Strong communication skills
• Positive attitude and coachable mindset
• Creative thinker who takes initiative
• Comfortable receiving feedback and implementing revisions quickly
• Ability to work independently while staying communicative
• Canva experience is a plus for simple graphics and carousels
• Real estate media experience is a plus, but not required

This Role May NOT Be For You If:
• You dislike fast-moving environments
• You struggle with consistency or meeting deadlines
• You prefer minimal communication or collaboration
• You only want to “edit videos” without thinking strategically about engagement and growth
• You dislike feedback or revisions
• You tend to rush through details like captions, formatting, or audio quality

Why This Role Is Great
• Flexible remote schedule
• Clear long-term growth potential
• Opportunity to help shape a growing media brand
• Creative and collaborative work environment
• Chance to build valuable social media strategy experience
• Opportunity to work closely with real estate professionals and growing businesses
• Consistent opportunity to improve editing, branding, and content strategy skills

Application Instructions
When applying, please include:
• Your resume
• A short intro video introducing yourself
• Your portfolio or examples of short-form content/reels you have edited
• A brief explanation of why you think your best-performing videos performed well
• Your favorite social media platform and why
• Your experience using CapCut and/or Canva
• Any experience you have with social media analytics, engagement tracking, or content strategy

We are looking for someone who genuinely cares about creating quality content and helping brands grow — not someone who simply uploads videos.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.
