Job Description Role Summary:
n The Video Editor is responsible for turning raw footage into polished, platform-ready content for client YouTube channels and Instagram accounts. This role requires strong command over pacing, storytelling, and platform-specific formatting (long-form YouTube, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels), while meeting tight turnaround timelines across multiple client accounts.
n Key Responsibilities:
n Editing & Post-Production
n • Edit raw footage into final videos for YouTube (long-form, Shorts) and Instagram (Reels, carousels where video-based)
n • Cut for pacing, retention, and platform-specific viewer behavior (hook in first 3 seconds, watch-time optimization, etc.)
n • Add graphics, text overlays, subtitles/captions, transitions, and sound design as per brand guidelines
n • Color grade and correct footage for consistency across a channel/account
n • Sync and mix audio (voiceover, background music, sound effects)
n Brand & Client Alignment
n • Follow individual client style guides - tone, music preference, graphic templates
n • Incorporate feedback from Account Managers/clients accurately and within revision timelines
n • Maintain brand consistency across all videos for a given client account
n Workflow & Coordination
n • Work from shot lists, scripts, and briefs provided by the Account Manager/production team
n • Coordinate with videographers to flag any footage gaps before final cut
n • Manage multiple edit timelines simultaneously across different clients without missing deadlines




n • Organize and archive raw footage, project files, and final exports systematically (naming conventions, folder structure)
n Quality Control
n • Self-review for continuity errors, audio sync issues, and export quality before submission
n • Ensure correct export specs (resolution, aspect ratio, format) per platform - 16:9 for YouTube, 9:16 for Shorts/Reels, etc.
n • Flag technical or creative concerns proactively rather than after client feedback
n Requirements:
n • 2+ years of hands-on editing experience, preferably for YouTube and/or Instagram content
n • Proficiency in editing software — Premiere Pro / DaVinci Resolve / Final Cut Pro (specify per your studio's tools)
n • Understanding of pop-culture
n • Working knowledge of After Effects or similar for motion graphics/text animation (preferred)
n • Solid sense of pacing and storytelling suited to short-form and long-form digital content
n • Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines without compromising quality
n • Basic understanding of platform algorithms/retention metrics is a plus
n Reporting & Accountability:
n • Daily/weekly submission of edit status to Editor Manager
n What Success Looks Like:
n n Edits delivered within agreed turnaround time, first cut requiring minimal revisions
n Consistent brand/style adherence across all videos for a client
n No missed platform deadlines due to editing delays
n Positive client feedback on quality and creative execution
