Video Editor — YouTube Finance Channel

About the Role
I run a YouTube channel focused on AI and finance (50 videos, growing fast). I need a video editor to take over the editing and publishing workflow so I can focus on recording and scripting.

This is a long-term, part-time role, with potential for full-time ~6 months out. You'll edit 4-6 videos per week, each 4-12 minutes long. The style is locked in — I'll give you example videos, CapCut project files with my preferred settings, and access to my Canva account for thumbnails.

Your normal working hours (Philippine time, 8am-5pm) are perfect. I record during my morning in the US (CST), drop raw footage in a shared Google Drive folder, and you edit during your daytime. Your 5pm is my 4am — I wake up to finished cuts ready to review.

What You'll Do

Edit raw screen recordings + face cam footage in CapCut
Follow established editing style (cuts, zooms, text overlays, transitions — all demonstrated in example files)
Create thumbnails using existing Canva templates
Add titles, descriptions, tags, and timestamps (I'll provide a template)
Light audio cleanup (noise reduction, level balancing — nothing complex)
Turnaround: 24 hours from raw footage drop to finished edit in the Drive folder

What I'll Provide

10+ example videos showing the exact editing style
CapCut project files with my settings, fonts, and color scheme
Canva account access with thumbnail templates
Google Drive folder structure for file handoff
Video description template with standard CTA, links, and formatting
Slack or Telegram for ---------- communication

Requirements

Strong CapCut editing skills (this is non-negotiable — we don't use Premiere or Final Cut)
Experience editing YouTube tutorial/educational content
Reliable internet and ability to handle large video files
Can start within 1 week
Available 20-25 hours/week

Nice to Have (not required)

Familiarity with finance/business content
Experience with Canva for thumbnail design
Basic understanding of YouTube SEO (titles, tags, descriptions)
Experience cutting long-form content into YouTube Shorts/TikTok/Reels

Compensation
$ ---------- /month USD depending on experience, paid biweekly via Wise or PayPal. This is a long-term role with room to grow as the channel scales.
Growth path: Phase 1 is long-form video editing. Within 30 days, we'll add cutting long-form videos into YouTube Shorts (vertical, 30-60 seconds). More scope = higher pay.
How to Apply
Send me:

A link to 2-3 YouTube videos you've edited (educational/tutorial style preferred)
A short Loom video (under 2 minutes) showing how you'd approach editing a screen recording tutorial
Your CapCut experience level and how many videos you typically edit per week

I'll send a paid test edit ($25) to my top 3 candidates using actual raw footage from my channel.
