Freelance Short form Video Editor

Hiring: UGC & Branded Video Editor (Social-First, Performance Minded)

We’re looking for a creative, reliable, and social-native video editor to help produce short-form videos for TikTok, Meta, and YouTube Shorts across multiple brands.

This isn’t a “cut clips and add captions” role; it’s for someone who understands how to make content stop the scroll, hold attention, and convert.

Who We’re Looking For

Someone who:

• Gets social content. Not corporate reels, but ads that actually sell and retain attention
• Knows how to build pacing, contrast, and energy from raw A & B-roll
• Can work from minimal direction- sometimes a full script, sometimes a folder of chaos
• Has taste. Understands when to use motion graphics, when to keep it clean
• Moves fast, delivers reliably, and takes ownership

If we give you:

• A rough script or outline
• A folder of clips, voiceovers, and B-roll

You should be able to interpret the intent and make it work without endless back-and-forth.

You’ll Be Editing

• UGC ads and branded social videos
• Product demos, explainers, and founder-led content
• Creative experiments for different brands
• Short vertical videos (30–60 seconds) that actually perform

You Understand

• Hooks, re-hooks, and retention tactics
• Scroll-stopping structure and pacing
• Emotional rhythm- when to cut, pause, or re-engage
• Caption hierarchy, text overlays, and platform-safe zones

Tools

• CapCut Pro (preferred- for shared Spaces workflow)
• Premiere Pro or Final Cut is optional
• Familiarity with Google Drive and Trello

What You Get

• Consistent part-time work (approx. 10-20 hrs/week to start)
• Paid trial to test workflow fit
• Competitive per-video rate (based on quality and speed)
• Bonus rates for editors who save time and nail creative direction
• Potential to scale into a long-term content partner role

To Apply

Send:

1. A porfolio attached (TikTok, UGC, organic or ad-style videos only)
2. A super short note on how you approach retention and pacing
3. Your rate per 30–60s edit and typical turnaround time
4. Your typical availability
