Join our team behind top podcasts: The Diary of a CEO (10M+), Lewis Howes (4M+), Ali Abdaal (5M+).

The position is a freelance position, but we will look to add you full-time, if you fit the bill.

You’ll be editing both long-form podcast episodes and short-form video content across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. This is a storytelling role. We’re looking for someone who knows how to craft a narrative from raw multicam footage and create short-form edits that actually hold attention.

Here’s the kind of content you’ll be working on

Crisp, cinematic podcast edits. Emotional short cutdowns. Edits that feel native to each platform.

• Editing full-length podcast episodes (multi-cam)
• Syncing audio/video, applying LUTs, mixing in b-roll and branded assets
• Creating 9:16 short clips for Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts
• Collaborating with creative leads on structure, flow, and feel
• Using transcripts and creative briefs to speed up the process
• Exporting and organizing assets cleanly for delivery

You Should Have

• Experience with long-form, multicam editing (ideally podcasts)
• Strong understanding of pacing, storytelling, and retention
• A portfolio that shows both long-form and short-form range
• Comfort working in Premiere Pro
• High attention to detail with exports, levels, timing
• Ability to take direction and run with a creative vision

Bonus Points

• Podcast editing experience (audio + video)
• Short-form reels that punch (music, text, SFX, pacing)
• Motion graphics skills
• Familiarity with YouTubers, podcasters, or creator brands
• Interest in AI editing tools

Let's make beautiful stories worth watching.
