YouTube Video Editor (Faceless Content, Cash Cow | High Retention | Long-Term)

Job Description

We are looking for a skilled YouTube video editor to join our team.

Your main responsibility is to turn scripts and voiceovers into engaging, high-retention videos by selecting the right clips and editing them in a way that keeps viewers watching.

This is NOT high-end animation work or anything crazy advanced.
We are looking for someone who understands:

- pacing
- storytelling
- flow
- and how to keep videos interesting

Your Goal

Create videos that:

- are fast-paced and never boring
- match the script perfectly
- use the right clips at the right time
- maximize viewer retention and watch time


What You’ll Get

- Script
- Voiceover
- Clear SOP / guidelines
- Reference videos

Your Tasks

- Source and select relevant clips (stock / YouTube / movie clips etc.)
- Edit videos according to script and voiceover
- Maintain fast pacing and strong flow
- Add simple zooms, cuts, and visual changes
- Ensure smooth and clean editing

Important

This role is NOT about fancy effects.

It is about:

- choosing the right clips
- understanding timing
- keeping viewers engaged

Content & Copyright Awareness (VERY IMPORTANT)

You must understand how "YouTube reused content rules" work.

- Do NOT copy or reuse long clips
- All footage must be transformed and edited
- Clips are only used as supporting visuals, not as main content
- Videos must feel original and unique

We will provide SOPs for this, but you should already understand the basics.

Output Expectation

- 3 videos per day (on average), 20-30 min long each
- Consistent quality
- Fast turnaround

Requirements

- Proven experience in video editing (YouTube preferred)
- Strong understanding of pacing and storytelling
- Ability to match visuals to voiceover
- Good sense for engaging content (not boring)
- Understanding of YouTube reused content / copyright basics
- Ability to follow SOPs AND make your own decisions
- Reliable and consistent

Not a Fit If

- You are a beginner with 0 experience
- You rely heavily on templates
- You don’t understand pacing or retention
- You copy clips without transforming them
- You are not aware of YouTube content policies

Ideal Candidate

- Has edited YouTube videos before (faceless content, cash cow videos)
- Understands how to keep viewers watching
- Can work fast without losing quality
- Thinks like a content creator, not just an editor

Compensation

- To be discussed (based on experience)
- Opportunity for long-term work
- Potential for increased workload
- Bonuses for high performing videos with high retention!

How to Apply

Please include:

1. 2–3 examples of videos you edited
2. Brief explanation of your editing style
3. Your availability (hours per week)
4. Your expected rate

Final Note

We are building a long-term team.

If you understand how to create engaging, high-retention videos, this can turn into a long-term position with very lucrative incentives.

Please write “RETENTION” at the top of your application so we know you read everything.
