Summary

I run a YouTube channel focused on personal finance and tax planning, and I'm looking for a reliable editor to handle ongoing weekly content. I'm a CPA creating practical, educational videos — think IPO equity comp, Roth vs. Traditional 401(k), Social Security, and similar topics — and I need an editor who can make talking-head content engaging and easy to follow. What you'll be editing: Long-form videos (5–8 min) — guides and comparison videos Shorts (under 60 sec) — vertical, fast-paced, hook-driven What I'm looking for: Clean cuts that keep pacing tight and remove dead air On-screen text and simple graphics to reinforce key points (dollar amounts, comparisons, takeaways) Relevant B-roll and stock footage to break up talking-head segments Captions/subtitles A strong sense of retention editing — keeping viewers watching Bonus: experience with finance, business, or educational channels Workflow: I'll provide raw footage, a script, and notes on key on-screen text Expecting roughly 2 videos per week Looking for someone dependable for the long term, not a one-off project To apply: Share 2–3 examples of YouTube videos you've edited (finance/educational a plus) Briefly tell me what you'd do to improve retention on a talking-head finance video Let me know your rate (per video or hourly) and typical turnaround time I value clear communication and consistency. If you're someone who takes ownership of quality and hits deadlines, this could be a great long-term fit. A youtube channel I like is: https://www.youtube.com/@jasoncpa and
