Summary

If you're hiring a full-time editor, I'd make the job description a bit more specific about the storytelling expectations, pace, and quality standards. Here's a polished version you can post on LinkedIn, Indeed, Facebook groups, Upwork, or editor communities: Full-Time Podcast Editor (Remote – Europe Preferred) Storyhouse Studios is looking for a talented full-time Podcast Editor to join our growing team. We produce high-quality podcasts and video content for entrepreneurs, creators, founders, and industry leaders. We're looking for someone who can do more than simply cut between cameras—we need an editor who understands pacing, storytelling, audience retention, and how to create engaging content from long-form conversations. Requirements Expert knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro (latest version) Strong understanding of multi-camera podcast editing Experience syncing and editing separate audio recordings Ability to work independently and manage a consistent editing schedule Strong storytelling instincts and editorial judgement Excellent attention to detail Reliable internet connection and communication skills Fluent English The Role You will be editing approximately 1–2 podcast episodes per day. Typical projects include: 3-camera podcast setups Separate audio recordings requiring syncing and cleanup Tightening conversations by removing repetition, pauses, tangents, and sections that don't add value Creating the strongest possible narrative flow while maintaining the authenticity of the conversation Adding intro/outro graphics and basic branding elements where required Exporting episodes to our delivery specifications What We're Looking For We're not looking for someone who simply assembles footage. We want an editor who can: Identify the most engaging moments Improve pacing and flow Cut unnecessary content Make conversations feel sharper and more impactful Understand audience retention and what keeps viewers watching Preferred Experience editing business, interview, or conversational podcasts Experience creating short-form clips from long-form content Basic audio mixing and cleanup skills Knowledge of YouTube podcast formats and audience retention principles To Apply Please send: 1. Your CV or portfolio 2. Examples of podcast edits you've completed 3. Your expected monthly salary 4. Your location and timezone 5. A short explanation of your editing process We're ideally looking for someone based in Europe so working hours closely align with our team. One thing I'd add: include a short paid editing test (15–20 minutes of raw podcast footage). You'll learn more from that than from a portfolio, especially when evaluating whether someone can identify weak sections and improve storytelling rather than just edit technically.
