Video Editor - VA

If you've been looking for a long-term role with a fast-growing US brand in the masculine wellness space, read carefully.

Joburn and our team has generated over seven million dollars for clients in the past couple of years. We're just getting started. Now we're placing trained operators into the brands we know best — and this is one of those roles.

THE BRAND: BEEFCAKE WELLNESS

Brandon Bohonko runs Beefcake Wellness. 100,000+ followers across Instagram and TikTok. He gained 70 lbs on purpose to understand what his clients were going through, then started losing it publicly. He documents the whole arc.

Posts 5-6 short-form vertical videos per week. The audience is fitness-curious men 25-45 who know what to do and aren't doing it.

The brand voice is loose, masculine, lightly profane, period-driven. Lowercase captions. Self-aware. Anti-hype. Think Sam Sulek + Greg Doucette's editing style. Fast cuts, on-screen text that does the work the voice doesn't, music that drives pacing. If you don't already get this register, watch 10 videos ---------- ---------- before applying.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Edit 5-6 short-form vertical videos per week (Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts)
60-90 seconds per video typically
Add cuts, b-roll overlays, on-screen text, music, captions
Match Brandon's visual style. You'll get a 20-video reference set plus a style guide.
Repurpose long-form podcast or interview footage into 3-5 shorts per session
Manage a simple weekly Trello or Notion board of pending vs shipped
48-hour standard turnaround on regular edits, 24-hour on priority
You're embedded directly with Brandon's content operation. Not subcontracted. Not white-labeled. You are his editor, daily.

REQUIRED

2+ years editing short-form vertical video for social platforms
CapCut Pro fluency. Brandon edits rough on iPhone, you finish on desktop.
Adobe Premiere Pro OR DaVinci Resolve at an intermediate level
Native or near-native English. You'll write on-screen text and clean captions.
Stable internet, GMT+8 hours or compatible overlap with Pacific or Mountain time
Hook-first editing instinct. The first 1.5 seconds is the entire game.
Ability to take a 1-paragraph brief plus raw footage and produce a publishable edit
NICE TO HAVE

Thumbnail design for YouTube
Familiarity with fitness or bodybuilding content
Comfortable with profanity and irreverent humor (this IS the brand voice)
Loom recording for async feedback exchange
WHO WE WANT (AND WHO WE DON'T)

We hire on three things. Read these honestly. If they don't sound like you, don't apply. We'd rather you save the time.

1. Radical candor. We tell you when something is off. We expect you to tell us back. No sugar-coating. No "great question!" energy. We just talk. If you need a soft work culture, this isn't it.

2. Extreme ownership. Your edit shipped late? That's on you. The brief was unclear? You should have asked. The team will not hand-hold. The good news: when something works, the credit is also yours.

3. Willingness to move. Speed beats prestige. 10 cuts in 48 hours beats one perfect edit in two weeks. If you need to polish something for a week before shipping, you'll be miserable here.

And one more thing. The honest reason we're hiring this way.

AI is coming for video editing. Not slowly. We see it. The editors who survive the next 18 months will be the ones who use AI as a leverage tool but keep their own taste on top. The ones who don't will be replaced.

We want to help you survive that. This role isn't just an editing job. It's training to become an AI-augmented operator. We pay for the work. The skill upgrade is a side effect of how we work.

PAY

$3/hr × 40 hrs/wk = $480/mo to start. Rate reviews are based on performance, reliability, and the brand's growth. No specific bumps promised. Strong editors who fit the team can grow with the brand over time. Piece-rate option also on the table for the right person.

One last thing before the apply step. Brandon's a fitness guy. He likes seeing what people actually eat. Put your favorite food in the subject line of your reply. Catches the people who read carefully too.

HOW TO APPLY (read carefully — this is the only application we review):

Reply to this post. We personally watch every reply.

In your reply, include:

Your portfolio. Links to 5 short-form videos you've edited (Reels, TikToks, Shorts).
A 60-second Loom introducing yourself and explaining why this specific brand interests you.
One specific video ---------- ---------- you'd improve, and how.
We're looking to make this hire within 5 business days. If we move forward with you, we'll be in touch fast.

Not looking for a one-project freelancer. Looking for an editor who grows with this brand for 12-24 months minimum.
