Senior YouTube Video Editor (Remote) Subject line when applying: “I actually read the instructions” We’re looking for a sharp, creative, and detail-obsessed YouTube Video Editor to join our content team. If you live and breathe story pacing, thumbnails, retention curves — and know how to turn 45 minutes of ramble into 10 minutes of gold — keep reading. This is _not_ your typical chop-and-trim gig. We’re producing YouTube-first content for real estate creators building real brands. Think: storytelling that sticks, pacing that keeps viewers hooked, and visuals that _actually_ matter. What you'll do: - Edit long-form YouTube videos that are clean, compelling, and built for retention. - Craft tight intros, strong hooks, and mid-video resets that drive watch time. - Suggest titles, choose thumbnails, and think strategically about viewer engagement. - Repurpose long-form content into YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikToks. - Enhance videos with music, captions, motion graphics, and relevant b-roll. - Collaborate with our creative team and real estate clients to elevate their voice and message. What you bring: - 2-3 years of experience editing YouTube-first content. - Strong understanding of YouTube pacing, retention, and viewer psychology. - Expertise with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve. - Ability to edit clean audio, sharp visuals, and invisible cuts. - Self-sufficient workflow with strong communication and deadline discipline. - Bonus: Experience editing in business, real estate, or finance verticals. Success in this role looks like: - 30-50% average viewer retention on long-form edits. - Consistent 2-3 week edit buffer per client. - Brand-aligned visuals and tone — every time. - High satisfaction from both internal and client teams. Pay & growth: - Pay starts at $8.50-$11.00 USD/hour, depending on experience. - All roles begin with a paid 30-60 day trial to ensure fit and workflow. - Grow into full-time editor, creative strategist, or account lead as you deliver results. - High performers are first in line for internal promotions — we _love_ promoting from within. To apply: “I actually read the instructions” Include the following: - Your resume in PDF format, titled: Lastname.Firstname.VideoEditor.pdf - A portfolio or link to your editing work (YouTube, Shorts, Reels, etc.) Optional but encouraged: Tell us 1-2 YouTube channels you think are _crushing it_ — and what they’re doing right. Looking forward to seeing what you’ve got! Job Types: Full-time, Part-time Pay: R$8,200.00 - R$10,200.00 per month
