Confidential employer
Short-Form Video Editor (Freelance / Part-Time)
Role: Short-Form Video Editor
Working arrangement: Freelance / Part-Time, Ongoing
Workload: Regular, with hours varying depending on workload
About the Role
We are looking for a reliable, creative and efficient video editor to handle short-form video editing and content clipping on an ongoing basis.
The work will primarily involve taking longer-form video content and turning it into engaging, high-quality short-form clips suitable for platforms such as Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts.
This is not a full-time position, and there won't necessarily be work every day. However, we expect a regular flow of editing requirements and need someone who is available, responsive and able to take on work consistently as it comes in.
We are looking to build a long-term working relationship with someone who can become familiar with our content, style and expectations.
Key Responsibilities
Clip longer-form videos, podcasts, interviews and other content into engaging short-form videos.
Identify the strongest moments, hooks and talking points to create compelling clips.
Edit videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts.
Add subtitles, captions, relevant graphics, transitions and animations where appropriate.
Ensure edits are well-paced, engaging and professionally presented.
Format content correctly for different social media platforms (primarily 9:16 vertical).
Make revisions and adjustments based on feedback.
Maintain consistency in editing style, quality and branding.
Turn around editing requests within agreed deadlines.
What We're Looking For
Proven experience editing short-form social media content.
Strong understanding of what makes content engaging and keeps viewers watching.
Good eye for identifying interesting moments and creating effective clips.
Excellent attention to detail, particularly with subtitles and timing.
Ability to work independently and manage deadlines.
Good communication and responsiveness.
Reliable availability when editing work is assigned.
Experience with Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or similar editing software.
Working Arrangement & Expectations
This is an ongoing freelance/part-time arrangement rather than a full-time salaried position.
Work will be provided regularly, although the volume may vary from week to week.
You will need to be available to take on editing tasks as they arise.
We expect clear communication around availability and turnaround times.
Deadlines must be met consistently.
We are looking for someone interested in a long-term working relationship rather than occasional one-off projects.
How to Apply
Please provide:
Examples of previous short-form video edits.
A portfolio or links to content you have edited.
Your editing software and experience.
Your availability and typical turnaround times.
Your rates (per clip, per hour or another preferred arrangement).
