JOB OVERVIEW

I’m looking for a creative and detail-oriented remote video editor/content assistant to help build long-form YouTube content and short-form social media content.

This role will begin on a flexible project-by-project or hourly basis, with the potential to grow into a more consistent long-term position depending on performance and workload.

About the Content

The content will include a mix of:

* Construction and remodeling projects
* Behind-the-scenes business ownership
* Entrepreneurship and leadership
* Day-to-day life as a contractor/father/business owner
* Garage/shop/tool content
* Personal growth and real-life experiences
* Social media clips for business marketing

This is NOT overly corporate or scripted content. I am looking for someone who can help create authentic, engaging, well-edited videos with good pacing, storytelling, music, subtitles, transitions, and overall flow.

Responsibilities

* Edit long-form YouTube videos
* Create short-form vertical content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts
* Organize footage and project files
* Add captions/subtitles, music, transitions, sound cleanup, and graphics where appropriate
* Help identify strong ---------- nts or clips from raw footage
* Follow creative direction while also contributing ideas and suggestions
* Maintain a consistent editing style and branding over time

Preferred Skills

* Experience editing YouTube videos and social media content
* Strong English comprehension and communication
* Experience with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, or similar editing software
* Understanding of pacing, storytelling, hooks, and modern editing styles
* Ability to work independently and meet deadlines
* Experience editing construction, trades, entrepreneur, lifestyle, or service business content is a bonus

Workflow

Raw footage will typically be uploaded to a shared cloud folder. I will often send voice notes, video notes, or written direction explaining:

* the context of the footage,
* key ---------- nts from the day,
* themes or ideas I want emphasized,
* and general creative direction.

I’m looking for someone who can take direction well while also bringing their own creativity and ideas to the editing process.

To Apply

Please include:

1. A short introduction about yourself
2. Your editing experience
3. Links to your portfolio or sample videos
4. What editing software you use
5. Your hourly rate or preferred pricing structure
6. Your typical turnaround time for:
* a short-form video
* a 10–20 minute YouTube video

IMPORTANT:

At the end of your application, include the phrase:
“Built, not born.”

Also, please record a short 1–2 minute audio or video introduction in English answering:

* Where are you located?
* What type of content do you enjoy editing most?
* Why are you interested in this position?
* What do you think makes a video engaging?

Applications that do not follow these instructions will not be considered.
