EchoVerse Collective - Video Editor & Social Campaigns
We build agents for humans. EchoVerse Collective is an AI-native media, content and intelligence company. Our flagship product is Dispatches - a personalised daily brief about AI, written by four AI columnists and approved by a named human editor before anything ships. You can read it at
We publish something worth watching every single day, and almost nobody sees it. We have no real presence on any social channel. That is the job.
THE WORK
Video editing is the centre of this role. Most of your week is in the timeline.
- Edit. Short-form vertical cuts from our daily articles and audio editions - the kind of thing that stops a thumb. Talking-head pieces from the founder. Product walkthroughs. Launch films. Subtitles, sound, pace, type, colour: all yours.
- Run the channels. Plan and schedule what goes out, write the copy that goes with it, and hold a posting rhythm we can actually sustain. LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, Instagram - we will start narrow and expand.
- Run paid campaigns. Build and manage paid social - audiences, creative variants, budgets, reporting. Tell us what the numbers say each week, including when the answer is that something is not working.
- Build the machine. Templates, presets, caption styles, a shot library, prompt libraries for the generative tools. Anything you make twice becomes a template. It is the only way one person keeps a daily channel fed without drowning.
You would be the only person doing this. Nothing you make passes through a committee or a three-week approval chain, because neither exists here. You make it, we look at it together, it ships. When it is wrong I will tell you that week, and then it is yours to fix, not mine to override.
We are an AI-native company and we mean it. Generative tools - video, image, voice, avatar - are part of the craft here, not a shortcut we tolerate. We cover every tool and every credit.
YOU WILL FIT IF
- You are genuinely strong in an editing suite - Premiere, DaVinci Resolve or After Effects. Not "I can cut a clip". You have opinions about pace, about where a cut lands, about how type and sound carry a piece that has no budget for a crew.
- You have made short-form video that performed, and you can tell us why it performed. A number is good. An explanation of the number is better.
- You have run paid social campaigns with real money behind them - you have built audiences, tested creative, read the reporting, and changed what you were doing because of it.
- You use generative tools well. You know which model to reach for and why, and you know when the output is not good enough to ship. If it looks like the AI made it, it does not ship.
- You can write. The copy that goes with the video is part of the job, and it is in English.
- You work well from short written briefs, you say plainly what is done versus in-progress versus not started, and you never report a result you did not verify.
Tell us if you have any of these: motion graphics and kinetic typography; podcast or audio-led editing; YouTube specifically (thumbnails, retention, the long form); ElevenLabs, HeyGen or similar avatar and voice tools; Veo, Kling, Runway or Flow; analytics beyond the platform dashboards;
YOU WILL NOT FIT IF
- You want a volume job. Forty ad variants a week, auto-captions, next one. We want four things a week that are right.
- You need a detailed brief and a locked storyboard before you can start.
- You describe your work by what you made rather than by what changed.
- You would ship a generative clip because it was fast, not because it was good.
DETAILS - POST TRIAL SUCCESSFUL - ONE CANDIDATE
- PHP 45,000 to 70,000 per month, depending on experience. That is set deliberately above the domestic market for this work, because we are hiring one person, not three.
- Full-time, fully remote, Philippines. Independent contractor, monthly invoicing, 13th-month bonus.
- We are in London (GMT+1). We need three hours of overlap - your afternoon covers it. Around a launch, occasionally more. The rest of your week is yours to schedule; we count the work, not the hours.
- Every tool and every credit is paid by us, from week one: your editing suite, the generative video, image and voice models, design tools, ClickUp, Claude. So is a machine that actually renders.
- The package also includes private health cover for you and your family, a monthly family fund paid on top of salary with no receipts and no questions, protected learning time each week with a budget behind it, and paid leave we expect you to take. Base rises are reviewed at six and twelve months and go into your engagement letter as real numbers before you start. Every figure is on the table at offer stage.
HOW TO APPLY - two things, both required
1. Three pieces of your work. Links, not attachments. Three maximum - pick the ones closest to short-form social video, and give us one line each: what it was for, and what you were trying to make the viewer do.
2. One written answer. Go to
Applications missing either will not be read.
SUBJECT LINE
Dispatches video - [name]
where [name] is the columnist who covers markets and capital. It is on the site. The wrong subject line is filtered automatically.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
From everyone who applies we shortlist five to eight people. Those people get a real edit: we send you footage, audio and a one-line brief, and you cut a short vertical piece. A few hours of work.
We pay PHP 2,500 for that edit. Everyone who reaches that round is paid, on delivery, whether or not we hire you. It is not a competition prize and it is not conditional on us liking what you made. If we asked you for it, you are paid for it.
From there, two or three people do a 45-minute call - you walk us through your edit and how you would build a campaign around it. One person gets the job. The whole process takes under two weeks.
