Summary

Video Editor & Social Media Content Manager I’m a physician building a new longevity and beauty-focused brand and am looking for a highly organized, creative, detail-oriented Video Editor & Social Media Content Manager to help grow new Instagram and TikTok accounts from scratch. You can review my current content and style at @drnataliyamd This role is for someone who understands that great content is not just about editing—it’s about storytelling, retention, aesthetics, strategy, and understanding what makes people stop, watch, share, and repost. Responsibilities include: * Editing short-form videos for **Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts** * Adding clean, professional **subtitles, graphics, B-roll, and visual elements** * Incorporating and properly **citing relevant scientific studies and papers** * Maintaining a clean, elevated, modern aesthetic * Repurposing and posting content across **Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube** * Developing and maintaining an organized **content calendar** * Helping brainstorm topics, hooks, formats, and content ideas * Tracking analytics and identifying what is and is not working * Participating in a **weekly strategy call** to review performance, analytics, upcoming content, and adjustments to the strategy * Using performance data to improve hooks, retention, topics, editing style, and overall content direction * Being responsive and available for **same-day edits or revisions when needed** ### What I’m Looking For The ideal person is **extremely organized, reliable, responsive, proactive, and creative**, with strong visual taste and a genuine understanding of social media. Experience with **health, medicine, science, wellness, beauty, or educational content** is strongly preferred. You should also be comfortable reading scientific research well enough to accurately reference and cite studies. AI tools are absolutely welcome if they improve your workflow. However, I do not want content that looks, reads, or feels AI-generated. If your process consists primarily of prompting AI and publishing the output without adding human judgment, creativity, taste, critical thinking, and personality, this will not be the right fit. I want someone who uses AI as a tool—not as a replacement for thinking. How Success Will Be Measured We are building new social accounts from the ground up, so success will be measured primarily through content performance and audience growth, including: Views, shares, reposts, saves, watch time, retention, and overall account growth. The goal is not simply to post consistently. The goal is to learn quickly from the data and continuously improve the content. Application Process As part of the final selection process, applicants will be given one of my raw videos to edit and turn into a finished Reel. This test edit will be a major part of how I make the final hiring decision. I want to see how you interpret the footage, structure the story, create the hook, use subtitles and visuals, incorporate research when appropriate, and maintain the overall aesthetic. Your portfolio matters, but your test edit will matter more. The overall goal is to build clean, intelligent, credible, visually elevated content that feels distinctly human—not generic influencer content and not AI-generated content.
