We’re looking for a skilled and creative video editor to join our growing team. This role is perfect for someone who is passionate about crafting clean, engaging, and stylistically distinct video content — especially for online courses and YouTube.

You’ll be working closely with an online coach/creator to produce video content that feels personal, high-quality, and brand-consistent. Our ideal editor can take raw footage and turn it into a polished, digestible, and memorable experience for the viewer — one that feels like it was made just for them.

What You’ll Do:
Edit long-form course videos and short-to-mid-length YouTube content

Use clean, minimalist editing that enhances rather than distracts from the core message

Infuse each video with a consistent, creative flavor that reflects the personality and voice of the creator

Cut dead space, tighten pacing, and add tasteful transitions

Incorporate music, sound effects, and subtle animations that elevate the viewing experience

Collaborate with the content creator to maintain a cohesive visual and tonal identity across the channel/course

What We’re Looking For:
Strong aesthetic sense and understanding of minimal editing styles

Creativity with sound and pacing, using edits and music to create a signature style

Experience editing for online courses, educational content, and/or YouTube creators

Ability to bring personality and brand identity into each video

Comfort working with Google Drive, Dropbox, or similar platforms for asset management

Strong attention to detail and a respect for deadlines

Consistency is Key:
We value editors who can deliver consistent turnaround times. A 10-minute video should take roughly the same amount of time to edit every time (e.g., ~1 hour), not fluctuate between 20 minutes one day and 2 hours the next. We’re looking for someone who knows their process, works efficiently, and is able to maintain predictable output.

Nice-to-Haves:
Motion graphics or animation experience (simple text effects, lower thirds, etc.)

Experience with YouTube best practices (titles, retention editing, thumbnails)

Familiarity with Notion, Slack, or other collaboration tools

To Apply:
Please send:

A short message introducing yourself and your editing style

A link to your portfolio or recent work (especially course or YouTube edits)

Your rates and typical turnaround times

We’re not just looking for a video editor — we’re looking for a creative partner who wants to grow with a brand and make videos that truly resonate.
