Summary

About the role I run an online fitness coaching brand @sculptedbyprecision and post short-form content consistently across Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. I'm looking for a reliable editor to own the editing on an ongoing basis. This is a long-term retainer position, not a one-off gig. Do great work and you keep a consistent seat for as long as you want it. What you'll be editing - Around 30 videos per month - Each video is 45 to 60 seconds max (talking-head plus captions style) - Vertical 9:16 format for Reels, TikTok, and Shorts - I provide the raw footage. You handle the cuts, pacing, captions/subtitles, and light graphics - Most important: every video must match the look and feel of my existing content. Study my page before applying Examples of my style: [paste your Instagram link and 2-3 specific Reel links here] What I'm looking for - Proven short-form editing experience (send 2-3 examples of similar work) - Clean, punchy captions and tight pacing that holds attention through the full video - Fast, consistent turnaround - Someone dependable who communicates clearly and hits deadlines without being chased Budget and terms - $15 to $25 per video depending on experience (roughly $450 to $750/month at full volume) - Monthly retainer, ongoing - Looking to start as soon as possible To apply Send 2-3 examples of short-form videos you've edited (fitness or talking-head a plus). Start your message with the word **PRECISION** so I know you actually read this, and in your first line tell me your editing software and your average turnaround time per video.
