Digital Content Director & Video Editor (Part-Time with Full-Time Scale Potential)

*** PAYMENT SCHEDULE: This position is paid Bi-Monthly (twice per month) on a fixed, predictable corporate schedule. ***
*** IMPORTANT NOTE: While this position is listed as Part-Time (20 hours/week) to start, we are explicitly looking for a professional with the desire and capability to scale to a Full-Time, 40-hour salaried position within 30-60 days based on performance and channel scaling. ***

POSITION OVERVIEW:
The VEXXIA Lifestyle Entity is seeking a high-agency, long-term Digital Content Director & Video Editor to manage our multi-channel video pipeline.

You will be handed a massive 5-year vault of premium, raw international and domestic travel footage, alongside fresh weekly lifestyle and business product recordings. Your single core focus is to turn raw assets into a high-retention storytelling machine.


NOTE: Because this role involves handling highly confidential personal footage, behind-the-scenes assets from major network TV productions, and proprietary business materials, a signed Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) is a mandatory condition of employment.


CORE RESPONSIBILITIES:
1. The YouTube Long-Form Show: Produce ONE premium, high-retention long-form episode per week from raw, unorganized, and unnamed footage dumps. You must be comfortable scrubbing raw files to piece together a dynamic narrative.

2. The Social Media Splitting: Extract and edit a MINIMUM of three high-velocity vertical short-form clips per week from the master episode to syndicate across shorts feeds.

3. The Product Engine: Edit THREE short vertical product-showcase clips per week for our 3D printing e-commerce division (raw footage of finished items provided, no long-form editing required).

4. Full Digital Distribution & SEO: Manage our Metricool dashboard to schedule and cross-post all assets. You are entirely responsible for top-tier SEO (titles, detailed metadata, tags, deep descriptions), writing captions, designing cover stills, and creating THREE variations of high-click-through thumbnails per long-form video for split testing.



REQUIRED CREATIVE EDITING STYLE:
We execute "High-Retention Cinematic Editing." You must study channels like HopeScope, Ryan Trahan, and Hangtime to fit our aesthetic workflow.
* The Pacing: Hyper-fast, changing visual scales, camera moves, or B-roll inserts every 3-5 seconds. However, you must leave tiny micro-pauses of breathing room for natural voice humor and dry delivery to shine. No robotic over-chopping.
* The Graphics & Text Style (High-Attention Revenue Engine): On-screen text, callouts, and info-graphics must be highly dynamic, energetic, and fully animated (pops, slides, and motion-tracking) to maximize viewer retention. We want a polished, high-end production look that feels expensive and drives massive engagement. You have total creative freedom to use high-contrast text, stylized graphics, neon highlights, and attention-grabbing pop-ups to punch up the comedic timing, highlight the story pacing, and keep eyes locked on the screen.
* The Hook & Frame: Every long-form video must open with 5-10 seconds of intense, high-stakes manufactured opening drama (the curiosity hook) before hitting a clean, gamified chapter structure using leaderboard tallies and progressive step counters on screen.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
If you are an independent problem solver who thrives under low micromanagement and can turn unorganized folders into master-level media properties, we want you.

To apply, please reply with a link to your current video portfolio or sample sheet. IMPORTANT: To prove your attention to detail, you must start your response to this listing with the words "SIDE QUEST" in all capital letters. Applications without this keyword will be automatically deleted.

We look forward to building this empire with you!
