About Us

Septic Squad is a fast-growing septic pumping and repair company based in Austin, Texas. ----------

Our tagline is:

“Disgustingly Good Service.”

We operate multiple septic trucks and complete interesting, messy and highly visual jobs every day. We have more than 250 five-star Google reviews and want to become the most recognizable septic company in Texas.

We are looking for a talented short-form video editor and social media manager who can turn our raw jobsite footage into entertaining, educational and lead-generating content.

This is not a general virtual-assistant position. Video editing, storytelling and social-media growth will be your primary responsibilities.

What You Will Do
Edit 25–30 short-form videos every month
Create content for Instagram Reels, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube Shorts
Turn raw jobsite footage into compelling stories
Write strong hooks that capture attention within the first two seconds
Add professional captions, music, sound effects and branded graphics
Write natural-sounding American English captions and calls to action
Schedule and publish content daily
Create thumbnails and cover images
Develop monthly content calendars
Monitor comments, messages and engagement
Direct potential customers to call or schedule service
Review analytics and identify the best-performing content
Create new versions of winning videos
Turn customer reviews into social-media content
Organize our raw footage and maintain a content library
Provide our advertising manager with the strongest videos for paid ads
Suggest new content ideas for our technicians to record
Content You Will Create

Examples include:

“The homeowner thought they only needed routine pumping. Then we opened the tank…”
Septic mistakes that can cost homeowners thousands
Before-and-after transformations
Satisfying pumping and cleaning footage
Unusual things found inside septic tanks
Technician explanations and system diagnoses
Customer testimonials
Funny technician moments
Septic myths and facts
Repair recommendations
Emergency job stories
Videos using our five-star customer reviews

We want content that is entertaining and occasionally funny while still making Septic Squad look professional, trustworthy and knowledgeable.

Requirements
Strong portfolio of short-form videos for Reels, TikTok or YouTube Shorts
Excellent understanding of hooks, pacing, retention and storytelling
Advanced proficiency with CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro or similar software
Excellent written English
Ability to write captions that sound natural to an American audience
Experience scheduling and managing content across multiple platforms
Understanding of the difference between content that receives views and content that generates customers
Reliable internet connection and computer
Strong organization and communication
Ability to meet deadlines without constant supervision
Comfortable working with footage involving septic tanks, wastewater and dirty jobs

Experience creating content for American home-service businesses—HVAC, plumbing, roofing, landscaping, construction, cleaning or similar companies—is strongly preferred.

Compensation and Benefits
Starting salary of $1,000–$1,300 USD per month
Performance-based salary increases
Bonuses for exceptional organic reach and measurable lead generation
13th-month pay after completing the trial period, prorated during the first year
Paid Philippine holidays
Paid vacation and sick days after the trial period
Long-term opportunity with a growing American company
Creative freedom once you demonstrate that you understand our brand
Consistent access to new and interesting footage
Our Hiring Process

We do not hire solely based on interviews.

Shortlisted applicants will receive the same collection of raw Septic Squad footage and complete one paid test project. We will pay $50 USD for the test regardless of whether you are hired.

The test will require you to produce:

One finished short-form video
A compelling opening hook
On-screen captions
A suggested post caption and call to action
A brief explanation of why you edited it that way

We will evaluate creativity, storytelling, English, attention to detail, speed and ability to follow instructions.

How to Apply

Use the subject line:

DISGUSTINGLY GOOD CONTENT – [Your Name]

Include the following:

A brief introduction explaining your relevant experience
Links to five short-form videos you personally edited
Examples of social-media accounts you have helped manage
Any measurable results you helped produce, including views, followers, leads or sales
The editing software you use
Your desired monthly salary
Your internet speed and computer specifications
Your availability and preferred working hours
Your favorite video from your portfolio and why you believe it performed well
Three short-form video ideas you would create for a septic pumping company

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

We are looking for someone who wants to become the creative engine behind Septic Squad—not someone looking for another generic VA position.
