Social-First Video Editor Wanted at Top-Tier Medical Center

Pay range: $50 to $65 per hour

Are You the Missing Piece?

We all know video is king, and the right editor can turn good content into scroll-stopping, share-worthy, brand-defining magic. That's exactly what this mission-driven healthcare organization needs: a social-first Video Editor who can bring important stories to life across every social platform.

You must have proven healthcare, health-tech, wellness, or medical storytelling experience and know how to transform complex topics into engaging, audience-friendly content. From slicing interviews into polished clips to creating motion graphics that make content pop, you'll be the creative force helping important healthcare stories reach the people who need them most.

If your happy place is building content for TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, Bluesky, and whatever platform is about to have its moment, keep reading.

What's it going to take to score an interview?

• Social-first instincts: You're not adapting content for social; you're creating for social. You understand platform behaviors, audience expectations, and what actually earns engagement.
• Healthcare storytelling experience: You've created content within healthcare, health-tech, wellness, medical, or related industries and know how to communicate complex information clearly and responsibly.
• Strong editing chops: You have advanced skills in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, with a portfolio showcasing polished edits, thoughtful pacing, and motion-design expertise.
• Design-forward thinking: You have a sharp visual eye and can elevate content through graphics, animation, typography, and storytelling choices.
• Platform expertise: You understand what works across TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Bluesky, X, YouTube, and emerging social channels.
• Collaborative energy: You're comfortable partnering with communications, marketing, and creative teams while bringing fresh ideas to the table.

You should take this meeting because …

You'll be creating meaningful content for a respected healthcare organization where your work can genuinely make a difference. You'll get the credibility of a major anchor client, the creative freedom to experiment and shape content strategy, and the opportunity to build standout portfolio pieces that showcase both your storytelling and design skills.

If you're looking for a role where creativity, purpose, and impact intersect (and where your work can help important healthcare stories reach the right audiences), this one checks all of those boxes.
