About the Role

We are building a short-form content company serving U.S. businesses, creators, podcasts, and professional brands.

We are looking for a talented Philippines-based video editor who can turn long-form videos, podcasts, interviews, and talking-head content into high-retention short-form videos for:

  • TikTok
  • Instagram Reels
  • YouTube Shorts

WHAT YOU'LL DO

You will take long-form video content and identify the strongest moments, then turn them into engaging vertical clips.

We are looking for someone who understands:

  • Strong hooks in the first 1–3 seconds
  • Clean, accurate captions
  • Fast pacing and jump cuts
  • Zooms and visual pattern interrupts
  • B-roll when appropriate
  • Sound effects and music when appropriate
  • Storytelling and retention
  • TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts pacing
  • 9:16 vertical formatting

WHO WE WANT

You don't need to be the most expensive editor.

We want someone who is:

  • Creative
  • Reliable
  • Fast
  • Easy to communicate with
  • Able to follow instructions
  • Interested in growing with a new company

PAID TRIAL

Shortlisted applicants will receive the SAME raw footage and editing instructions.

The trial edit will be PAID.

We are not asking applicants to perform free sample work.

The purpose of the trial is to compare editing quality, hook selection, captions, pacing, storytelling and turnaround time.

Successful editors may receive recurring weekly/monthly work as our U.S. client base grows.

HOW TO APPLY

Start your application with:

CLIP TEAM

Then send:

1. Links to your 3 BEST short-form videos.

Please don't send 20 examples. We want to see your best three.

2. Your normal price PER finished short-form clip.

3. How many short-form videos you can realistically edit per week.

4. Which editing software you use.

5. Your normal turnaround time for one 30–60 second video.

6. Tell us briefly about your experience turning podcasts, interviews, talking-head videos, or long-form content into Shorts/Reels/TikToks.

This position begins as freelance/project-based work.

If our client volume grows and you consistently produce excellent work, there will be an opportunity for significantly more ongoing work.
