About the Role
We are looking for a highly skilled, creative Video Editor based in the Philippines to join our growing content team.
This role is not basic cutting and trimming.
You will be editing high-impact YouTube videos, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and TikTok content that rely heavily on engaging pacing, visual storytelling, motion graphics, and clean professional polish.
If you enjoy adding subtle effects, zooms, sound effects, animated text, and visual elements that keep viewers watching, this role is a strong fit.

Long-form YouTube videos (10–60+ minutes)
* Talking-head content
* Community tours
* Lifestyle and real estate storytelling
Short-form vertical videos (30–90 seconds)
* Instagram Reels
* YouTube Shorts
* TikTok
The goal is retention, engagement, and watch time.
Required Skills and Experience
You must have strong experience in:
* Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve
* After Effects (or equivalent) for motion graphics, text animation, and light visual effects
* Editing both horizontal (YouTube) and vertical (Reels/Shorts) formats
* Jump cuts, speed ramps, zooms, punch-ins, and sound effects
* B-roll selection and placement
* Creating strong hooks in the first 3–5 seconds
* Editing for YouTube retention and short-form engagement
Bonus Skills (Highly Preferred)
* Experience editing real estate, lifestyle, or business content
* Understanding of YouTube audience retention and short-form trends
* Ability to create clean lower thirds and dynamic text animations
* Experience working from scripts, editing notes, or time-stamped instructions
* Familiarity with modern YouTube pacing and visual reset techniques
Responsibilities
* Edit long-form YouTube videos with strong pacing and storytelling
* Create short-form vertical clips from long-form content
* Add motion graphics, effects, and text where appropriate
* Select and place B-roll strategically
* Enhance videos with music and sound effects
* Follow brand style guidelines
* Meet deadlines consistently
* Communicate clearly and professionally
Work Schedule and Expectations
* Consistent availability during agreed working hours
* Fast turnaround times without sacrificing quality
* Open to feedback and revisions
Compensation
* Competitive pay based on experience and skill level
* Paid per project or monthly retainer (to be discussed)
* Long-term opportunity for the right editor

Please include all of the following:
1. A short introduction about yourself
2. Your primary editing software (Premiere, Resolve, After Effects, etc.)
3. Links to your best work (YouTube videos, Reels, Shorts — real examples only)
