JOB OVERVIEW

Social Media Video Editor + Content Strategist — Personal Brand

I’m looking for a high-level video editor with a strong understanding of social media to help take my personal brand to the next level.

I don’t just need someone who knows how to use editing software. I need someone who understands attention, hooks, storytelling, pacing, retention, and what makes people stop scrolling.

You should have a great eye for style, a fast turnaround time, and be comfortable producing multiple pieces of content per day.

What you'll be doing

You'll be working with a library of raw footage and turning it into polished, engaging social content, including:

* Instagram Reels / short-form videos
* Talking-head content
* B-roll with text overlays
* Carousels and static posts
* Educational content
* Story-driven videos
* Clips pulled from longer-form footage

Some projects will be straightforward. For example, I may give you several teleprompter takes and need you to comb through the footage, identify the strongest takes, remove mistakes, and turn them into a polished video.

Other projects will require much more creativity. I may give you raw footage with no exact script, and I need you to be able to watch it, identify the interesting story or idea, develop the hook, and turn it into something people actually want to watch.

I'm looking for someone who understands CONTENT — not just editing.

You should understand:

* How important the first 1–3 seconds are
* Hooks and curiosity
* Storytelling and pacing
* Retention and watch time
* Text placement and on-screen captions
* B-roll and pattern interrupts
* When an edit should be fast and punchy vs. simple and clean
* How to repurpose one piece of footage into multiple pieces of content
* Current short-form content styles and trends
* How to make content feel native to Instagram/TikTok rather than overly produced

Most importantly, I want someone who is willing to pay attention to the numbers. If something gets 2,000 views and something else gets 50,000, I want you asking: Why? What was different about the hook? The topic? The edit? The pacing? The format? I want someone who learns from what performs, recognizes what flops, and continuously helps us make better content.

The goal

Ultimately, your job is to help me turn:

Raw footage ? great content ? consistent posting ? more views ? a stronger personal brand.

I want to be able to send you footage and trust that you're going to find the gold in it.

To apply

Please send me:

1. 3–5 examples of short-form content you've personally edited.
2. Links to any social media accounts you've helped grow or regularly created content for.
3. A short video introducing yourself and telling me about your experience.
4. Tell me about one Reel/TikTok you've edited that performed extremely well and WHY you think it worked.
5. Tell me what you would do if we posted 10 videos and 8 of them underperformed.

I'm looking for someone who is creative, fast, reliable, accountable, and obsessed with making better content.

If you're simply looking for someone to hand you exact timestamps and editing instructions for every video, this probably isn't the right position.

If you love taking a pile of raw footage and figuring out how to turn it into content people actually want to consume, I want to hear from you.
