We’re hiring an in-house Video Editor to work directly with the founder on long-form YouTube content, educational videos, breakdowns, and high-impact informational content.
This role is for someone who understands that editing is communication — not just visuals.

Visually reinforce key points, frameworks, steps, and CTAs
Clean up pacing, dead space, and rambling sections
Insert B-roll, screen recordings, diagrams, and visual references
Collaborate directly with the founder during filming and review sessions
Prepare final exports optimised for YouTube (and repurposing)

Proficient in Premiere Pro + After Effects (or equivalent)
Experience editing educational, business, or doentary-style content
This Role Is NOT For You If
You only edit short-form social clips
You dislike structured, informational content
