Job description

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Freelance Video Editor (M/F/D) based in Italy.

We are looking for a creative and detail-oriented Freelance Video Editor to produce engaging, high-quality YouTube content for entrepreneurs and personal brands. In this fully remote role, you will be responsible for transforming raw footage into polished, compelling long‑form videos that capture audiences and strengthen digital presence. You will combine technical editing expertise with creativity, storytelling, and a strong understanding of visual communication. Beyond executing editing tasks, you will actively contribute ideas, improve content structure, and bring creative concepts to life. You will work in a collaborative, feedback‑driven environment with clear processes and opportunities to develop your skills. This is an opportunity to build a long‑term professional relationship while contributing to ambitious content projects.

Accountabilities
  • Edit and produce engaging YouTube long‑form videos, typically ranging from 8 to 15 minutes.
  • Develop compelling storytelling through creative editing, effective pacing, and well‑structured narratives.
  • Enhance videos with appropriate visuals, transitions, effects, and other post‑production elements to ensure a professional final result.
  • Take ownership of assigned projects, demonstrating independent thinking and proactively suggesting creative improvements.
  • Incorporate feedback accurately and efficiently while maintaining consistent quality standards.
  • Continuously refine editing techniques and contribute to improving the overall quality of video content.
Requirements
  • Previous experience in video editing, ideally with a portfolio demonstrating long‑form YouTube content. Candidates with short‑form editing experience and strong technical skills are also encouraged to apply, as training can be provided.
  • Proficiency in at least one professional video editing tool, such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, or equivalent software.
  • Strong storytelling abilities, creative thinking, and a good understanding of video structure, pacing, and visual composition.
  • Excellent attention to detail, with the ability to deliver polished, well‑organized, and engaging content.
  • Reliability, accountability, and the ability to work independently in a remote environment.
  • Strong communication and organizational skills, including the ability to meet deadlines, manage priorities, and implement feedback effectively.
  • A proactive mindset and willingness to learn, grow, and continuously improve creative output.
Benefits
  • Competitive monthly compensation ranging from €1,500 to €4,000, with additional performance‑based earning potential.
  • Long‑term freelance collaboration rather than short‑term project assignments.
  • Fully remote working arrangements, offering flexibility regarding location.
  • Structured professional workflows designed to minimize unnecessary revisions and streamline collaboration.
  • Access to training, coaching, and ongoing professional development.
  • Direct, constructive feedback and fast communication within a collaborative environment.
  • Flat hierarchies and opportunities to contribute ideas and take ownership of projects.
  • Career development opportunities, including potential progression toward Senior Editor or Creative Lead positions.

We use an AI-powered matching process to ensure your application is reviewed quickly, objectively, and fairly against the role's core requirements. Our system identifies the top‑fitting candidates, and this shortlist is then shared directly with the hiring company. The final decision and next steps (interviews, assessments) are managed by their internal team.

We appreciate your interest and wish you the best!
