Posted 4 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

We’re looking for a talented and reliable short-form video editor to support the personal brand of a clinician, founder, and health-tech entrepreneur working at the intersection of longevity medicine, aesthetics, wellness, regenerative health, science, and the future of healthcare. This is not a generic influencer-editing role. The brand has a defined visual identity and content strategy: clean, elevated, editorial, intelligent, modern, and premium, with an emphasis on translating complex health and science topics into engaging, sophisticated short-form content. What You’ll Be Editing Primarily Instagram Reels, including: Talking-head educational videos Founder/thought-leadership content Longevity, wellness, health-tech, and science content Aesthetic medicine and regenerative medicine topics Lifestyle, travel, behind-the-scenes, and personal-brand footage B-roll-driven storytelling Clips from longer-form conversations or educational content Occasional trend-based content when appropriate to the brand You will receive: Raw footage Content concept or brief Hook and messaging direction Brand guidelines Creative references B-roll and supporting assets when available You will not be responsible for developing the overall social media strategy or managing the social media calendar. Your role is to take approved concepts and footage and turn them into polished, high-performing short-form video. Editing Style We are looking for someone who understands premium personal-brand editing rather than overly aggressive or gimmicky social-media editing. The ideal style is: Clean and editorial Sophisticated and modern Strong pacing without feeling chaotic Strategic use of captions and on-screen text Elegant typography Intentional B-roll Subtle motion graphics Strong opening hooks Smooth transitions Visually engaging while still feeling credible and elevated Think luxury wellness meets science, technology, medicine, and founder thought leadership. You should understand when an edit needs energy and movement—and when restraint makes the content feel more premium. You Should Be Comfortable With Instagram Reels Talking-head editing Short-form storytelling Hooks and retention-focused pacing B-roll integration Dynamic captions Text hierarchy Audio cleanup Music selection Basic color correction Basic motion graphics Clean transitions CapCut or equivalent professional editing software Exporting correctly for Instagram Experience editing for founders, physicians, health/wellness brands, science communicators, executives, or premium personal brands is a strong plus. You do not need a medical background, but you should be comfortable working with scientific and healthcare terminology and paying close attention to accuracy. What Matters Most We’re looking for someone who is: Extremely detail-oriented Visually sophisticated Reliable with deadlines Comfortable following an established creative direction Able to work independently once given a brief Consistent across multiple pieces of content Responsive to feedback Interested in building a long-term creative relationship The workload will begin relatively small while we establish the workflow and editing style, with the opportunity to grow into an ongoing role as the brand expands. To Apply Start your proposal with the word: longevity Applications that do not begin with this word will not be considered. Please include: Your portfolio 2–3 specific Reels that best represent your editing style Any experience editing for personal brands, founders, healthcare, wellness, science, or luxury brands What software you primarily edit in Your typical turnaround time for one short-form video Your rate structure Bonus: briefly tell us how you would approach editing a physician/founder talking about a complex longevity or health-tech topic while keeping the content engaging without making it feel overly “TikTok.”
