JOB OVERVIEW

We’re Date Day With ---------- a growing Bay Area social media agency creating content for restaurants, medical spas, and lifestyle brands. Our content is aesthetic, story-driven, and premium — think elevated Reels, not generic templates. We’re scaling and need a talented editor to join our team long-term.

What You’ll Do
• Edit 8–15 short-form videos per month from raw footage we provide (20–60 seconds each, for Instagram Reels and TikTok)
• Add on-screen text, captions, transitions, and licensed trending audio
• Match each client’s brand aesthetic (we provide style guides and examples)
• Deliver first cuts within 48–72 hours of receiving footage
• Make revisions quickly based on feedback (usually 1–2 rounds)

What We’re Looking For
• 2+ years editing short-form content — short-form expertise is our priority
• Strong portfolio of aesthetic, premium-feeling edits — food, beauty, wellness, or lifestyle content a big plus
• Proficient in Premiere Pro, CapCut Pro, or Final Cut
• Excellent English comprehension for captions and on-screen text
• Reliable, communicative, and able to commit to consistent monthly volume
• Comfortable working from a shared content calendar with deadlines
• Bonus: long-form editing experience — we’re planning to expand into YouTube, so editors who can grow with us into long-form will have first priority on that work. Short-form remains the core of this role.

Pay & Structure
• Starting at $15+ per video depending on experience, OR monthly retainer of $600+ for dedicated capacity (preferred)
• free trial project first: one Reel from real client footage
• Long-term role with growing volume as our agency scales

How to Apply
Send us:
1. Your portfolio (links to 3–5 Reels you’ve edited — tell us which parts were your work)
2. Your rate per video and monthly retainer rate
3. Your typical turnaround time
4. Start your message with the word “DDWU” so we know you read this posting
