JOB OVERVIEW

Social Media Content Editor (CapCut | TikTok & Instagram Reels)

I'm looking for a creative, organized, and reliable part-time Social Media Content Editor to join my team.

You'll be editing a consistent stream of short-form content every month, making this an ideal opportunity for someone looking for steady, long-term work with room to grow.

Our content focuses on travel, lifestyle, family adventures, and creator content for TikTok and Instagram.

We're not just looking for someone who can edit videos—we're looking for someone who thinks like a content creator and understands what makes people stop scrolling.

You'll receive organized footage, already done voiceovers, hooks (but if you're creative, I welcome your hook ideas), and creative direction. Your role is to transform those assets into engaging, high-performing short-form videos while bringing your own creative eye and ideas to the editing process.

As our business grows, there will hopefully be opportunities to edit additional creator content and take on more responsibilities.

What You'll Be Editing
TikTok videos
Instagram Reels
Voiceover-based storytelling videos
Lifestyle, travel, family, and creator content
Content created from organized raw footage

Responsibilities:
Edit engaging, high-performing short-form videos using CapCut.
Create clean, scroll-stopping edits with strong storytelling, pacing, and sequencing.
Select the best clips from raw footage to tell a compelling story.
Identify multiple content opportunities from a single folder of footage.
Match visuals naturally to voiceovers.
Write first-draft captions.
Organize footage and completed projects in Dropbox.
Track projects using Google Sheets or Trello.
Participate in weekly Google Meet check-ins during onboarding.
Deliver projects on schedule.

What I'm Looking For:
Strong proficiency in CapCut (mandatory as we will be mainly be working off Capcut Teams together)
Experience editing short-form social media content.
Strong understanding of TikTok and Instagram Reels, including current editing styles, hooks, pacing, and audience retention.
Excellent storytelling and sequencing skills.
Ability to recognize multiple content ideas from raw footage.
Strong eye for selecting the best clips.
Organized, dependable, and able to meet deadlines.
Comfortable using ChatGPT, Dropbox, Google Sheets (or Trello), and Google Meet.
Strong written English and communication skills.
Reliable internet connection and a computer capable of editing high-resolution video.

Bonus Skills:
Experience editing creator or influencer content.
Experience with lifestyle, travel, family, Day in the Life, or GRWM videos.
Passion for social media and staying current with trends.

Training & Trial Period:
You'll receive hands-on training and weekly meetings during onboarding to learn my editing style, workflow, and content strategy.

This position begins with a paid 30-day trial period to ensure we're a great fit for each other. Successful candidates will have the opportunity to continue in a long-term role with additional hours and responsibilities as the business grows.

To Apply

Please send:

A brief introduction about yourself.
Links to 3–5 TikTok or Instagram Reels you've edited.
