Video Editor and Social Media Manager

Video Editor & Social Media Manager

We are looking for a skilled and versatile Video Editor who can take raw footage and deliver polished, publish-ready content for social media, YouTube, and podcast productions. This is not a role for someone who just cuts clips — we need someone who understands storytelling, pacing, and what it takes to produce a final product that looks and sounds professional across every platform.

Writing captions and scheduling social media posts is a secondary but important part of this role. You understand that a great caption is not an afterthought — it is part of the content. Getting the right content out at the right time on the right platform is a skill in itself, and we need someone who can own that too.

Key Responsibilities

Video Editing

• Edit short-form and long-form video content to a high standard — clean cuts, strong pacing, and polished delivery every time

• Work primarily in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or Final Cut Pro — proficiency in at least one is required, both is a strong plus

• Apply color grading, audio balancing, transitions, motion graphics, and visual effects as needed

• Edit content optimized for multiple platforms including Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn

• Maintain consistent brand look and feel across all video outputs

• Incorporate feedback efficiently and turn around revisions quickly without sacrificing quality

• Organize and manage raw footage, project files, and assets in a clean, retrievable file structure

Captions & Subtitles

• Create accurate, well-timed, and visually appealing captions and subtitles for all video content

• Style captions to match brand aesthetics — font, size, placement, color, and animation all matter

• Understand the difference between captions that serve accessibility and captions that drive engagement — and deliver both

• Edit and clean up auto-generated captions to ensure accuracy and readability

• Write and format social media post captions that complement the video and drive action

Social Media Management & Scheduling

• Manage content scheduling across social media platforms including Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn

• Use scheduling tools such as Later, Buffer, Hootsuite, or Meta Business Suite to plan and publish content on time

• Maintain a content calendar and coordinate with the team to ensure consistent, on-brand posting

• Format and adapt video content for platform-specific dimensions, aspect ratios, and length requirements

• Monitor post performance and provide basic analytics reports on reach, engagement, and views

• Stay current on platform algorithm changes, trending formats, and best practices for each channel

Content Collaboration

• Work closely with the creative team to understand content goals and deliver on the vision

• Provide input on content formats, trends, and ideas that could perform well on social

• Flag when raw footage needs reshoots or additional assets to meet quality standards

• Manage multiple projects simultaneously and meet deadlines consistently

Required Qualifications

• Strong, demonstrable video editing skills — a portfolio or reel is required for consideration

• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or Final Cut Pro

• Excellent captioning skills — both technical (timing, accuracy) and creative (style, engagement)

• Experience managing social media scheduling for a brand, creator, or business

• Understanding of content formats and best practices across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, and LinkedIn

• Strong eye for detail — you notice when a cut is off by half a second or a caption is misaligned

• Reliable high-speed internet and a capable editing setup to handle video files remotely

• Excellent time management and the ability to deliver quality work on deadline

Preferred Qualifications

• Proficiency in both Adobe Premiere Pro and Final Cut Pro

• Experience with Adobe After Effects or motion graphics for title cards, transitions, and animations

• Familiarity with DaVinci Resolve or other professional editing tools

• Experience with scheduling platforms such as Later, Buffer, Hootsuite, or Sprout Social

• Background in content creation, influencer marketing, or brand social media management

• Ability to write compelling social media captions in English with strong tone and voice
