JOB OVERVIEW

About the role
I am looking for an experienced Video Podcast Editor to work with me on a new guest interview series.
This is intended to be a long-term freelance opportunity for the right person.
I am recruiting and shortlisting now, with a paid trial planned for October 2026. If the trial is successful, I would like to continue working together on an ongoing basis.
The podcast will initially be around 1 episode per month, with the potential to increase over time.

What you'll be editing
The content will primarily consist of guest interviews and conversations.
Recordings may be:
Multi-camera studio recordings
Remote recordings
You will receive the raw footage and be responsible for turning it into polished, professional content for YouTube and short-form platforms.

Main responsibilities
Long-form video
You will be responsible for:
Editing multi-camera footage
Syncing and cleaning audio
Choosing the appropriate camera angles
Removing mistakes, awkward pauses and unnecessary sections
Maintaining natural and engaging pacing
Basic colour correction
Audio balancing and cleanup
Adding provided intro/outro and branding
Adding guest name/title graphics where required
Exporting the final YouTube video
The editing should feel clean, professional and engaging.
I do not want excessive transitions, distracting effects or overly complicated editing.

Short-form content
Short-form editing will be an important part of the role.
For each podcast episode, you will be expected to identify strong moments from the conversation and turn them into engaging short-form videos for:
YouTube Shorts
Instagram Reels
TikTok
This will include:
Selecting strong moments/hooks
Creating vertical edits
Captions/subtitles
Appropriate pacing
Basic graphics where appropriate
Making the clips engaging without over-editing them
The exact number of clips will depend on the episode and the quality of the content. I am looking for someone who can use their own judgement to identify the strongest moments.

Experience required
You must have experience with:
Video podcast editing
Interview editing
Multi-camera editing
YouTube long-form content
Short-form vertical content
Experience editing podcasts with multiple camera angles is particularly important.
Please provide examples of podcasts or interviews you have personally edited.
Experience with Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or similar professional editing software is preferred.

What I'm looking for
The most important things to me are:
Strong editing skills
Genuine podcast/interview experience
Good understanding of pacing
Strong attention to detail
Good audio editing skills
Good judgement when choosing camera angles
Ability to create strong short-form clips
Reliability
Good communication
Ability to meet deadlines
Ability to work independently
Willingness to take feedback
Interest in a long-term working relationship
I am looking for someone who can eventually become my go-to podcast editor, rather than hiring a different person for every episode.

Working arrangement
This will be a freelance hourly position.
Please provide your hourly rate in your application.
The initial workload will likely be around 1 episode per month, with the potential to increase as the series develops.
I am open to someone working flexible hours, provided deadlines are met and communication is reliable.

Paid trial
I plan to conduct a paid trial edit in October 2026.
The trial will involve editing a section of podcast/interview footage so I can assess:
Editing quality
Multi-camera editing
Audio quality
Pacing
Short-form editing ability
Ability to follow instructions
Communication and turnaround time
The trial will be paid.
If the trial is successful, I would like to move into an ongoing working relationship.

Application questions
Please answer all of the following:
1. How many years of video editing experience do you have?
2. How much experience do you have editing video podcasts or interviews?
3. Please provide 3 relevant examples of podcast/interview videos you have personally edited.
4. Have you edited multi-camera podcast footage before? Please explain briefly.
5. What editing software do you use?
6. Please provide examples of short-form videos you have edited from long-form content.
7. What is your hourly rate?
8. What is your typical turnaround time for a 30-60 minute podcast episode?
9. Are you available for a paid trial in October 2026?
10. Are you available for ongoing freelance work after the trial?
11. What hours are you generally available for communication?
12. Are you comfortable working independently once the editing style and workflow have been established?

How to apply
Please answer all of the application questions above and provide links to your most relevant podcast/interview editing examples.
Applications without relevant portfolio examples or without answering the application questions may not be considered.
I am looking for someone I can work with long term, so if the October trial is successful, there is potential for consistent monthly work as the podcast grows.
