JOB OVERVIEW

Elite Careers Strategy is a London-based private advisory working with ambitious candidates and families pursuing careers in corporate law, investment banking, private equity and other highly selective industries.

We are looking for an excellent Video Editor to take ownership of our video content.

This is not a role for someone who simply knows how to use Premiere Pro or CapCut. We want someone with strong editorial judgement who understands pacing, storytelling, retention and premium brand presentation.

You will primarily edit founder-led educational and thought-leadership content for YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram and other social platforms.

What you will do

* Turn raw founder footage into polished long-form YouTube videos
* Produce high-retention short-form clips for Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube Shorts and TikTok
* Identify the strongest moments from longer recordings without needing every clip timestamped for you
* Remove repetition, pauses, weak sections and unnecessary material
* Create strong opening hooks while preserving the founder’s actual meaning
* Add clean captions, graphics, screenshots, B-roll and visual emphasis where useful
* Improve pacing and viewer retention without making serious professional content feel gimmicky
* Repurpose one recording intelligently across multiple platforms
* Maintain consistent ECS visual and editorial standards
* Organise source footage, project files and final exports properly
* Use AI tools where they genuinely improve editing speed or quality

The style we want

Think premium, intelligent, understated and authoritative.

Our audience includes students and young professionals, but also parents, senior professionals, private bankers and other sophisticated audiences.

We do not want excessive animations, meme editing, constant zooms, unnecessary sound effects or the generic over-edited “internet guru” aesthetic.

The editing should make strong ideas easier and more compelling to consume. It should not distract from them.

You are likely a strong fit if

You have excellent examples of founder, business, educational, podcast or thought-leadership editing.

You can distinguish between technically competent editing and genuinely good content.

You understand why viewers stop watching and can edit accordingly.

You can take a relatively long raw recording and independently identify what should stay, what should go and what could become a standalone short.

You have excellent attention to detail and written English.

You are comfortable receiving direct feedback and improving rapidly.

You use AI intelligently rather than avoiding it.

Application task

Please send:

1. Your three best examples of relevant editing work. Do not send your entire portfolio.
2. Tell us exactly what you personally edited in each example.
3. Tell us which editing software and AI tools you use.
4. Tell us how you would turn a 20-minute founder video into one strong YouTube video plus several short-form clips.
5. Start your application with the words “ECS VIDEO” so we know you have read the full description.

Shortlisted candidates will receive a paid editing test using the same raw footage. We will compare candidates on editorial judgement, pacing, brand fit, attention to detail and turnaround time.
