We are looking for a highly skilled short-form video editor who can transform raw footage into
engaging, high-performing vertical content optimized for social distribution.
This is not a long-form documentary role.
This is short-form, high-speed, attention-driven content.
Role Overview
You will receive approximately 28 raw video files per month and will be responsible for:
● Editing them into short-form vertical content
● Optimizing for engagement and platform performance
● Delivering clean, modern, scroll-stopping videos
This is an independent role. You will receive files via Google Drive and execute edits autonomously,
with weekly feedback sessions.
Portfolio quality is more important than interview performance.
