About
We're hiring a Video Editor to take long-form YouTube videos from raw footage to final upload. This is a fully remote role working directly with the creator behind the channel, so you'll have a real say in how each video is shaped rather than just assembling clips to someone else's notes. We're looking for someone who thinks in terms of retention and pacing — strong opening hooks, clean sound, and edits that hold attention past the first minute. A mid-level editor with a couple of years of channel experience would be a great fit. If you've edited for a creator before and can show the work, we'd like to see it.
Skills and requirements
Proven experience editing long-form YouTube videos (roughly 8–20 minutes) with a strong sense of pacing and audience retention
Fluency in a professional editing suite such as Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro
Ability to build a clear narrative from raw footage with minimal hand-holding, including b-roll selection, music, and audio cleanup
Comfortable working to a recurring upload schedule and hitting agreed turnaround times
Basic motion graphics and on-screen text skills for titles, lower thirds, and callouts
Familiarity with YouTube-specific craft: hooks in the first 30 seconds, thumbnail-friendly moments, and clean exports
Clear written communication and comfort working asynchronously in a remote setup
A portfolio or sample edits from past YouTube channels
