Short-Form Video Editor (Sports Podcast Content)

We’re looking for a highly detail-oriented video editor who takes pride in precision and quality. This role is less about flashy edits and more about getting the details right — clean cuts, accurate captions, strong pacing, and thoughtful clip selection. You’ll be creating social media short-form videos (TikToks, Reels, etc.) typically between 1–3 minutes long, turning long-form sports podcast content into engaging, high-retention clips. You should be meticulous when it comes to proofreading captions, sourcing relevant, high-quality B-roll, and ensuring every clip is polished and error-free. A strong understanding of sports, storytelling, and sports journalism is important, as the goal is to present conversations in a way that feels authentic, engaging, and credible. We follow a proven, repeatable editing format, so the ability to follow structure and maintain consistency is key. We are not looking for heavy effects, flashy transitions, or over-editing — simplicity, clarity, and attention to detail matter most. You must be able to closely follow our existing editing style and replicate it exactly — clips should look indistinguishable from our current content. 💼 About the Role You’ll edit ~20 short-form clips per week (≈80/month) from podcast episodes featuring athletes, celebrities, and cultural figures.
