Video Editor (Instagram & YouTube)

On-site · Internship · Paid · Pre-Placement Offer (Based on performance)

About the Role

We're looking for a highly creative Video Editor to help build a premium creator brand through exceptional content on Instagram and YouTube.

The initial content you'll work on features cinematic travel experiences captured across different locations, but this is a long-term opportunity to create content across multiple formats as the brand evolves.

We're not looking for someone who simply edits footage. We're looking for someone who understands storytelling, audience psychology, pacing, emotion, and what keeps people watching.

If you constantly analyze great content, stay ahead of editing trends, and enjoy turning raw footage into memorable stories, we'd love to hear from you.

What You'll Do

• Edit Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and long-form YouTube videos.
• Transform raw footage into engaging, story-driven content.
• Create compelling hooks that capture attention immediately.
• Maintain strong pacing and maximize viewer retention.
• Use music, sound design, transitions, and motion graphics intentionally—not excessively.
• Perform professional color correction and cinematic color grading.
• Add subtitles, titles, maps, and other graphics where appropriate.
• Organize project files and maintain an efficient editing workflow.
• Proactively suggest creative improvements instead of simply executing instructions.

What We're Looking For

• Excellent storytelling and editing instincts.
• Strong understanding of modern Instagram and YouTube content.
• Ability to create both short-form and long-form videos.
• Strong sense of pacing, rhythm, and emotional storytelling.
• Exceptional music selection and sound design.
• Professional color correction and color grading skills.
• Experience with Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve.
• Working knowledge of Adobe After Effects for basic motion graphics.
• High attention to detail.
• Ability to consistently deliver polished, high-quality work.
• Strong communication and time management skills.
• Someone who is curious, creative, and continuously learning.

Bonus Skills

Experience with any of the following is a plus:

• Cinematic travel content
• Motion graphics
• Photography or cinematography

Why Join Us

• Competitive compensation
• Long-term opportunity
• Creative ownership
• Opportunity to build content that reaches a global audience
