JOB OVERVIEW

ABOUT US
Button Up Media is a growing media company producing video content for our brand and clients. Our project load is increasing, and we need an experienced editor who helps us stay ahead of schedule.

THE ROLE
This starts as a part-time role (about 20 hours/week). Perform well, and the plan is to bring you on full-time within 2-3 months. You'll take video projects from raw footage to polished final delivery with minimal hand-holding.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Edit video projects end-to-end: cuts, pacing, story structure
- Work across short-form and long-form content (social clips, YouTube, promos)
- Captions/subtitles, transitions, and basic motion graphics
- Music selection, sound design, and audio cleanup
- Color correction and grading
- Apply feedback quickly and hit deadlines every time
- Keep project files organized and communicate progress proactively

REQUIREMENTS (NON-NEGOTIABLE)
- 5+ years of professional video editing experience
- Fluent English - written and spoken
- Portfolio/showreel required - applications without a portfolio link will not be reviewed
- Strong skills in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or DaVinci Resolve (After Effects is a plus)
- Reliable editing computer (HD/4K capable) and stable, fast internet
- About 20 hrs/week availability now, with capacity to go full-time in 2-3 months

HIRING PROCESS
1. Apply with your portfolio (details below)
2. Shortlisted candidates complete a short paid test project so we can see your editing skills firsthand
3. Interview, then part-time start - with the full-time transition at 2-3 months for the right editor

HOW TO APPLY
Start your application with the word SHOWREEL so we know you read the full post. Include:
1. Your portfolio/showreel link - plus 2-3 videos you're most proud of and your exact role on each
2. Years of professional editing experience
3. The software you edit with
4. Your weekly availability and timezone
5. Your expected monthly rate for part-time (about 20 hrs/week)

Applications missing a portfolio or the keyword will be skipped. Only apply if you're willing to complete a short test project.
