Job Description
Video Editor & Social Media Manager
We are looking for a skilled and versatile Video Editor who can take raw footage and deliver polished, publish-ready content for social media, YouTube, and podcast productions. This is not a role for someone who just cuts clips — we need someone who understands storytelling, pacing, and what it takes to produce a final product that looks and sounds professional across every platform.
Writing captions and scheduling social media posts is a secondary but important part of this role. You understand that a great caption is not an afterthought — it is part of the content. Getting the right content out at the right time on the right platform is a skill in itself, and we need someone who can own that too.
Key Responsibilities
Video Editing
- Edit short-form and long-form video content to a high standard — clean cuts, strong pacing, and polished delivery every time
- Work primarily in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or Final Cut Pro — proficiency in at least one is required, both is a strong plus
- Apply color grading, audio balancing, transitions, motion graphics, and visual effects as needed
- Edit content optimized for multiple platforms including Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn
- Maintain consistent brand look and feel across all video outputs
- Incorporate feedback efficiently and turn around revisions quickly without sacrificing quality
- Organize and manage raw footage, project files, and assets in a clean, retrievable file structure
Captions & Subtitles
- Create accurate, well-timed, and visually appealing captions and subtitles for all video content
- Style captions to match brand aesthetics — font, size, placement, color, and animation all matter
- Understand the difference between captions that serve accessibility and captions that drive engagement — and deliver both
- Edit and clean up auto-generated captions to ensure accuracy and readability
- Write and format social media post captions that complement the video and drive action
Social Media Management & Scheduling
- Manage content scheduling across social media platforms including Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn
- Use scheduling tools such as Later, Buffer, Hootsuite, or Meta Business Suite to plan and publish content on time
- Maintain a content calendar and coordinate with the team to ensure consistent, on-brand posting
- Format and adapt video content for platform-specific dimensions, aspect ratios, and length requirements
- Monitor post performance and provide basic analytics reports on reach, engagement, and views
- Stay current on platform algorithm changes, trending formats, and best practices for each channel
Content Collaboration
- Work closely with the creative team to understand content goals and deliver on the vision
- Provide input on content formats, trends, and ideas that could perform well on social
- Flag when raw footage needs reshoots or additional assets to meet quality standards
- Manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet deadlines consistently
Required Qualifications
- Strong, demonstrable video editing skills — a portfolio or reel is required for consideration
- Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or Final Cut Pro
- Excellent captioning skills — both technical (timing, accuracy) and creative (style, engagement)
- Experience managing social media scheduling for a brand, creator, or business
- Understanding of content formats and best practices across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn
- Strong eye for detail — you notice when a cut is off by half a second or a caption is misaligned
- Reliable high-speed internet and a capable editing setup to handle video files remotely
- Excellent time management and the ability to deliver quality work on deadline
Preferred Qualifications
- Proficiency in both Adobe Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro
- Experience with Adobe After Effects or motion graphics for title cards, transitions, and animations
- Familiarity with DaVinci Resolve or other professional editing tools
- Experience with scheduling platforms such as Later, Buffer, Hootsuite, or Sprout Social
- Background in content creation, influencer marketing, or brand social media management
- Ability to write compelling social media captions in English with strong tone and voice
