Job description

We're looking for a top-tier editor to join our incredible chart-topping team!

Who are we?

7xContent is a fast-growing podcast production & growth agency...

We’re creators at heart.

We’re experts at engineering podcast growth.

We work with ambitious clients and are highly selective.

We value quality, ownership, and momentum.

We’re a team of ~15 people who do things differently.

Our goal: great work, great people, great times...

and we’re looking for a Video Editor to join our team. This is a hands-on, creative role for someone who loves video editing and is passionate about podcasting.

We work with:

• The High Performance Podcast (leading personal development podcast)
• Ramit Sethi - Money for Couples (leading personal finance creator)
• Man Alive with Dr Jeff Foster (leading male health podcast)
• Multiple leading brand and creator podcasts we can’t talk about

You’ll be crafting edits that are seen by hundreds of thousands - and often millions - of people. This is not a passive role. We want someone hungry to push the podcast video medium forward and make the show better every single week.

In a Typical Week, You Will:

• Deliver a full-length podcast video edit (approx. 1 hour) formatted for YouTube and Spotify
• Edit a punchy 1-minute trailer designed to perform on social media
• Cut short-form clips optimised for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts
• Apply colour grading, sound design, and subtitling to a consistently high standard
• Contribute suggested titles and thumbnail direction for YouTube
• Collaborate closely with the podcast producer on episode narrative and pacing
• Attend occasional in-person podcast shoots and meetings in London/UK
• Track how your edits perform and iterate week-on-week based on data

The Ideal Candidate

We’re open to candidates from different backgrounds. Whether you have professional podcast or YouTube editing experience, or you’re a video content creator ready to step into a more structured production role - we want to hear from you.

Does this sound like you?

Someone who...

• Has a genuine passion for podcasts and the podcasting world
• Is obsessed with great video content - you watch widely, edit critically, and always notice what makes a clip stop the scroll
• Has strong video editing proficiency, including colour grading, subtitling, and sound mixing
• Is comfortable working in the Adobe Suite (Premiere Pro & After Effects are key)
• Understands hooks, cliffhangers, and storytelling techniques that capture and retain attention
• Can create highly engaging trailers and short-form clips that feel native to each platform
• Is highly organised, reliable, and able to manage their own workflow with minimal day-to-day supervision
• Is a clear and proactive communicator - comfortable working alongside producers and clients
• Has access to a powerful laptop or workstation capable of handling 4K video editing
• Has super fast internet and a solid home editing setup
• Videography or podcast recording experience is a bonus, but not essential. What matters most is your passion for the subject, the quality of your edits, and your drive to keep improving.

Why choose us?

• 25 days holiday + UK bank holidays + an extra day for every year of service
• A day off on your birthday
• A day off each year to volunteer for a cause
• Sick pay
• WFH budget
• Co-working allowances
• Remote-first & flexible working
• Quarterly in-person team meetups
• Full time role, open to both employee or contractor applicants
• High ownership, high trust, and real progression for strong performers
• Opportunity to work on shows with real reach and influence
