Video Editor

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in Honduras.

📋 Description

• Transform conversational footage into concise short-form narratives featuring impactful hooks, structured flow, and engaging pacing.

• Utilize the founder’s messaging guidelines to pinpoint the most powerful moments and construct comprehensive stories without needing detailed, step-by-step directions.

• Maintain each client's voice, personality, and intended message while eliminating repetition, tangents, and distractions.

• Incorporate accurate captions, thoughtful framing, B-roll, punch-ins, and supplementary visuals when they enhance clarity or engagement.

• Provide clean audio and polished, platform-ready videos, ensuring subtitles, visual elements, and overall flow are checked before delivery.

• Organize recurring content and revisions for 4-6 clients, producing approximately 3-4 completed videos daily within the anticipated turnaround time.

• Tailor editing style to each client instead of applying a uniform approach across all speakers or brands.

• Proactively take initiative on subsequent steps, identify unclear messaging or delivery risks early, and apply feedback to minimize direction needed for future edits.

• Collaborate directly with the founder of a personal-brand content business, assisting clients in conveying their expertise through authentic, credible social content.

⛳️ Requirements

• A portfolio showcasing Instagram Reels and pertinent talking-head, interview, podcast, founder, executive, thought-leadership, or personal-brand content.

• Relevant professional video editing experience; aiming for 3-5 years, ideally with more than 2 years focused on social content, though candidates with 1-2 years and an outstanding portfolio are encouraged to apply.

• Proficiency in CapCut, with solid skills in captions, pacing, framing, B-roll, punch-ins, basic audio cleanup, and finishing touches.

• Strong instincts for short-form storytelling, including insights into why viewers stop scrolling, what content should be included in the edit, and how to enhance a message without making the speaker sound artificial.

• Excellent English comprehension and communication skills, with the ability to grasp conversational nuances and preserve the speaker’s intent.

• Proven initiative and independent judgment, with the organization to manage ongoing edits, revisions, and delivery timelines without requiring detailed instructions.

• Comfort in working directly with a founder without a creative team, responding constructively to feedback, and being available Monday to Friday on Central Time.

• Prior experience working directly with a founder or in a startup environment is strongly preferred.

• Experience with Descript is highly preferred.

• Background in editing for personal brands, consultants, coaches, marketing or content agencies, podcast creators, or professional-service and local business owners.

• Experience in adapting videos for TikTok, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, or other social media platforms.

• Familiarity with Premiere Pro or similar professional editing software.

🏝️ Benefits

• Access to a $200K+ perk marketplace with discounts on over 150 global services.
