Video Editor

ABOUT THE BUSINESS

We are a growth-focused company helping founders and businesses build stronger revenue engines across messaging, lead generation, sales execution, and revenue technology. Content plays a major role in that strategy, with a constant stream of podcasts, client conversations, speaking engagements, and founder-led video creating opportunities to reach more of the right audience and generate measurable pipeline.

We've teamed up with Handoff to bring on a Video Editor who will turn raw footage into a high volume of platform-native content across YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, and X. This role goes far beyond making polished edits. You'll be responsible for testing hooks, creating multiple versions of the same content, publishing natively, analyzing performance, and using data to determine what gets scaled, reworked, or retired.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Short-Form Content Production:

• Turn long-form recordings into dozens of short-form assets each week, with multiple hooks, lengths, openings, captions, and creative variations.

• Edit specifically for each platform rather than resizing the same asset across channels.

• Add captions, hook text, b-roll, stock footage, graphics, and other elements that strengthen retention and clarity.

• Maintain a consistent publishing cadence without sacrificing editing quality.

Long-Form Editing:

• Edit full podcasts, speaking engagements, interviews, and YouTube content for pacing, clarity, and retention.

• Clean audio, remove unnecessary pauses, structure chapters, and create thumbnails and supporting assets.

• Ensure long-form content is published quickly and cleanly so it can serve as source material for additional content.

Testing & Performance Optimization:

• Treat every clip as an experiment by creating multiple versions and comparing their performance.

• Track views, watch time, followers, saves, shares, comments, profile clicks, and booked calls by asset and variation.

• Identify which hooks, formats, lengths, and editing approaches perform best on each platform.

• Use performance data to recommend which content should receive paid media support and which experiments should be discontinued.

Publishing & Content Ownership:

• Own content from raw footage through final publication.

• Upload content natively to YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and X with appropriate titles, descriptions, covers, captions, and hashtags.

• Ensure content never sits waiting for someone else to publish it.

• Work closely with the Social Media Lead to maintain fast turnaround times and a consistent content pipeline.

AI & Workflow Optimization:

• Use tools such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Descript, CapCut, Photoshop, AI editing platforms, and automation tools to increase production speed.

• Build and continuously improve workflows that allow one recording to become a large volume of finished content.

• Use AI to accelerate editing, repurposing, concept development, and production without compromising accuracy or quality.

• Continuously identify new ways to increase output while maintaining brand consistency and editorial standards.

ABOUT YOU

• Deep experience editing content for high-ticket coaches, consultants, founders, or similar personal-brand businesses.

• Strong portfolio demonstrating content that generated measurable outcomes such as views, followers, leads, or clients.

• Proven experience producing both short-form and long-form video content at high volume.

• Strong proficiency with Adobe Premiere Pro, along with tools such as Descript, CapCut, Photoshop, or similar platforms.

• Strong instinct for hooks, pacing, retention, captions, and the first few seconds that determine whether someone keeps watching.

• Strong understanding of how content needs to differ across LinkedIn, TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and X.

• Highly detail-oriented with strong standards for cuts, audio, captions, b-roll, graphics, and on-screen copy.

• Comfortable reading platform analytics and using performance data to guide creative decisions.

• Experience building an AI-assisted editing workflow that meaningfully improves production speed or output.

• Strong understanding of content designed for a B2B founder and executive audience.

• Fluent English communication skills, both written and spoken.

• Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced environment with high output expectations and direct feedback.

NICE TO HAVE

• Experience editing for creators, coaches, or consultants with large established audiences.

• Strong understanding of paid media and how organic content performance can inform advertising decisions.

• Experience attributing specific content assets to lead generation or booked calls.

• Familiarity with tools such as Opus Clip, Claude, Descript, or other AI-powered content tools.

• Experience building repeatable systems that turn long-form content into multi-platform content at scale.

• Experience working inside a high-output content team where creative is shipped, measured, and iterated continuously.

APPLICATION REQUIREMENT

Candidates should be prepared to provide:

• Two short-form videos created for a high-ticket coach, consultant, founder, or similar client, including performance results and business impact.

• One published long-form podcast, speaking engagement, or similar video, including available retention data.

• One example of the same footage edited in multiple ways, including which version performed best and what was learned.

• Three professional references from previous clients or employers.

• A clear explanation of your AI-assisted editing workflow, including the tools and process used to turn raw footage into finished content efficiently.

Shortlisted candidates may be asked to complete a paid editing trial involving multiple versions of the same piece of footage.
