Full Time YouTube Video Editor

Full-Time YouTube Video Editor — Long-Form, Shorts & Motion Graphics I’m looking for an expert-level video editor to join my team full-time and help grow a YouTube channel focused on Meta Ads, Google Ads, and digital marketing. I will publish five long-form videos per week, occasionally six. Each video will be approximately 7–12 minutes and will answer one commonly searched advertising question, such as: “Why are my Meta leads low quality?” Each long-form video will also be repurposed into approximately three Shorts, Reels, or TikToks. The Production Approach: **We know this is a high volume of content, and we are not expecting every video to be highly edited with effects. We expect to work on a system together to make this possible. Our goal is to develop a streamlined, repeatable system that allows us to produce approximately one long-form video and three short-form videos during each 7–8-hour workday. To make that realistic: 1. I or another team member can remove outtakes and provide a clean, organized initial cut. 2. The first two minutes of each long-form video will receive the greatest editing attention because they are especially important for viewer retention. 3. The remainder can use clean cuts, branded text, screen recordings, B-roll, and templated visual elements. 4. Each video will generally include one or two custom animations or visual explanations—not constant motion graphics. 5. We will create reusable templates for text, captions, callouts, transitions, intros, outros, and subscribe reminders. 6. We will gradually build a library of branded animations that explain recurring concepts like targeting, algorithms, campaign structure, and optimization. 7. These assets can be reused and adapted across multiple videos. 8. AI tools can help identify and create potential short-form clips, with the editor refining the results. The channel’s editing style will become stronger and more sophisticated as our template and asset library grows. Your Responsibilities - Edit five polished long-form YouTube videos per week - Create approximately three short-form videos from each long-form video - Give extra creative attention to the opening two minutes - Add branded text, captions, screenshots, B-roll, music, and sound effects where appropriate - Create one or two simple animations or visual explanations for each video - Help build reusable editing templates and a branded visual asset library - Identify the strongest moments for standalone Shorts or teasers - Use tools such as Premiere Pro, After Effects, Storyblocks, and AI editing tools to make production more efficient - Suggest improvements to my scripts or filming process when they would make the content easier to edit or repurpose Who I’m Looking For You should: - Be an expert-level video editor - Be fluent in English - Understand YouTube pacing, storytelling, and audience retention - Have experience editing both long-form and vertical short-form content - Be comfortable creating motion graphics and visual explanations - Know how to balance quality with a consistent, high-volume production schedule - Be dependable, organized, responsive, and interested in a long-term position - Be willing to collaborate closely and contribute creative ideas Experience with marketing, business, or educational content is a major advantage. Long-Term Opportunity This is a full-time, long-term role. As the channel grows and becomes monetized, I plan to add more resources to the team. I’m also open to creating a performance-based bonus structure so the editor can share in the channel’s growth. To Apply Please send: 1. Three long-form videos you edited 2.
