JOB OVERVIEW

I am looking for a talented and reliable video editor to work with me on the continued development of my personal brand and social media presence.

The content will include:

• Long-form YouTube videos
• Talking-head videos
• Podcasts and interviews
• Vlogs and behind-the-scenes content
• Instagram Reels
• YouTube Shorts
• Other short-form social media content

I am looking for someone who understands modern social media content and can create clean, engaging, high-quality edits with relatively quick turnaround times.

This is not a role where I am looking for excessive effects or over-editing. The goal is to create content that feels modern, natural, professional, and engaging.

WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR

The ideal editor should be comfortable with:

• Strong pacing and storytelling
• Clean cuts and removal of unnecessary pauses or repetition
• Strategic punch-ins and reframing
• Finding and adding relevant B-roll when appropriate
• Color correction and basic color grading
• Audio cleanup and enhancement
• Captions and text graphics
• Lower thirds and simple motion graphics
• Editing long-form content into short-form clips
• Identifying potentially strong ---------- nts for Reels and Shorts
• Creating content optimized for YouTube, Instagram, and other social platforms

CREATIVE JUDGMENT IS IMPORTANT

I am not looking for someone who only waits for exact instructions on every cut.

I want to work with an editor who can understand the objective of the content, make thoughtful creative decisions, and provide ideas that improve pacing, storytelling, retention, and overall content quality.

At the same time, being able to receive feedback, make revisions, and develop a consistent editing style is extremely important.

THE CONTENT STYLE

Much of the content will be entrepreneur, business, real estate, mortgage, personal development, behind-the-scenes, and personal brand content.

The editing style should generally feel:

• Modern
• Clean
• Social-media native
• Authentic
• Well-paced
• Professional without feeling overly corporate
• Engaging without relying on excessive effects

I believe that strong content and storytelling should lead the video. Editing should make the content better, not distract from it.

WORKFLOW

I will provide organized raw footage and direction regarding the purpose of each piece of content.

The editor will be responsible for turning that footage into polished content for the appropriate platform.

I am currently developing a repeatable content production system and editing SOP. I would like the person I work with to learn my preferences and editing style over time so that the workflow becomes increasingly efficient.

This has the potential to become a consistent and long-term working relationship for the right person.

TURNAROUND TIME

Quick and reliable turnaround is important.

Please be honest about your current workload and availability. I am looking for someone who can consistently deliver quality work without projects sitting in a queue for long periods of time.

HOW TO APPLY

Please include:

A short introduction about yourself and your video editing experience.
Links to your best examples of:
• Talking-head videos
• YouTube videos
• Podcasts
• Vlogs
• Reels
• Shorts

You do not need to provide examples from every category. Send the work that best represents your ability.

What editing software do you primarily use?
What is your typical turnaround time for:
• A 10–20 minute talking-head YouTube video?
• A short-form Reel or YouTube Short?
Are you comfortable independently identifying strong short-form clips from long-form content?
How many hours per week are you currently available?
Tell me about one creator, YouTube channel, or personal brand whose editing style you admire and briefly explain why.
Please begin your application with the words “CONTENT FIRST” so I know you read the full job description.

PAID TEST PROJECT

Final candidates may be invited to complete a short paid test project using actual footage.

The purpose of the test will be to evaluate editing quality, pacing, creative judgment, communication, ability to follow direction, and turnaround time.

I am interested in building a strong working relationship with someone who takes pride in their work, communicates well, and wants to grow with the content and brand over time.

I look forward to seeing your work.
