PODCAST & SHORT FORM VIDEO EDITOR
Second Nature Podcast
Retainer: USD $100/week

About the Show
Second Nature is a B2B podcast about brands and businesses in the outdoor industry. We publish one episode every Friday across YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Substack. We are 150+ episodes in with a loyal and engaged audience of industry professionals.

What You'll Be Editing
One full episode per week (audio + video for YouTube), plus three short form clips per episode for Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. This is consistent, ongoing weekly work with a clear and repeatable format.

Your Responsibilities
— Audio editing: cleanup, noise reduction, pacing, and removing filler words and dead air
— Long form video editing: syncing audio and video, color correction, and adding footage to our introductions to make the episode more visually engaging on YouTube
— Short form clips: identifying and cutting three clips per episode (under 90 seconds each) optimized for Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts
— Delivering all finished files via Dropbox or Google Drive within 24 hours of receiving raw footage

Required Skills
— Strong video editing skills, both long and short form
— Podcast audio editing experience
— Ability to work independently and meet deadlines without close supervision
— Comfortable with async communication across time zones

Nice to Have
— Thumbnail graphic design
— Motion graphics
— Experience editing interview-style or conversational content
— Understanding of YouTube optimization and pacing for retention

What to Expect
— This is an async role — no regular calls required, though occasional check-ins may happen
— We will start with a paid trial project before committing to an ongoing arrangement
— Raw files will be shared via Dropbox or Google Drive
— We are looking for someone who understands storytelling and narrative pacing, not just technical cleanup — the goal is an edit that keeps people watching, not just one that sounds clean
