Video Editor (Organic & Performance)

You’ve got the editing chops. You also know why a hook lands in the first second and why the same cut won’t work on TikTok and Instagram. Most editors only have one of those. We want the person with both. This team is sitting on a pile of raw footage and a creative producer with a clear vision. The view counts are already climbing fast. What’s missing is someone who can take the handoff, cut it into scroll-stopping content at volume, and tell us when they think there’s a better way to do it. If you’ve grown accounts, gone viral, or made UGC that performed, and you’d rather work on ideas with the team than take orders, keep reading.
This is a fully remote, contractor role.
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU
A real creative partner. You’ll work directly with the in-house creative producer as her counterpart, not as someone who just carries out her instructions.
Your ideas get used. This team wants people who speak up on hooks, formats and strategy, and they’ll give you room to do it.
Room to build something new. If this works in-house, it becomes a client-facing service, and you’re the person who shaped it.
Freedom to try new things. AI tools, new apps, motion graphics, new formats: test them and keep what works.
On camera if you want it. If you’re comfortable in front of the camera, there’s room to represent the brand as well.
WHAT YOU’RE GETTING INTO
Edit raw footage into short-form content at volume, using direction from the creative producer
Build platform-native versions of each video for TikTok, Instagram and Facebook
Apply hook strategy and pacing so every piece earns its watch time
Work with the producer on creative direction: give feedback, suggest options, and agree on changes before you make them
Fill content gaps by being resourceful with B-roll, voiceovers, motion graphics and AI-assisted formats
Track what’s performing and bring those lessons into the next batch
Keep up with trends so the content stays current
WHO YOU ARE
You’ve edited short-form social content professionally, and you have a portfolio that proves it
You come from social media, UGC or content creation, and you understand how content works, not just how editing software works
You’ve had real wins: content that hit big numbers, and you can explain why it worked
You understand hook strategy and how TikTok, Reels and Facebook differ
You’re fast with editing tools and comfortable using several of them, not locked into one app
You use AI tools to work faster, and you’re open about how you use them
You talk things through: if you think there’s a better approach, you raise it before you deliver the edit, not after
You’re confident, you’re always on top of trends, and you care about volume as much as quality
Bonus if you’ve:
Done motion graphics or logo animation
Built a personal brand or audience of your own
Been comfortable on camera, selfie-style or presenting
Edited paid social or performance creative as well as organic
