Video Editor — Business/Finance Faceless Documentary Channel (Long-Term)
Worldwide
Hey! We're launching a new faceless YouTube channel for documentaries about the business world: corporate fraud, scandals, and the rise and fall of big companies. We're looking for an editor to partner with long-term and grow it with us. This isn't a one-off gig. We're publishing videos every week, so we want someone reliable we can build a steady workflow with. If you're after consistent, ongoing work, that's exactly what this is. The style is faceless documentary — no one on camera, so the edit carries the story. Think a mix of stock and archival footage, headlines, social media posts, articles, and documents on screen, clean text and data callouts, tasteful motion graphics, and music and pacing that build tension and land the big moments. Our tone sits somewhere between these channels, so watch a few videos from each before applying: https://www.youtube.com/@MagnatesMedia https://www.youtube.com/coldfusion https://www.youtube.com/@Coffeezilla https://www.youtube.com/@GEN https://www.youtube.com/@LogicallyAnswered https://www.youtube.com/@InvisibleGameCo Since our topics are fraud and corporate crime, a big part of the job is putting "receipts" on screen — filings, financial figures, news clippings — in a way that's clean and easy to follow. Videos run around 12–15 minutes. What we're looking for: Real experience editing faceless documentary or explainer content (show us examples) Comfortable sourcing your own footage and building motion graphics and text Premiere Pro / After Effects, or your equivalent — we care about the result Reliable turnaround and the capacity for two videos a week Someone who thinks about retention and storytelling, not just cutting clips
