YouTube long-form editor

This is a talent pool role. Tom is always meeting good people, and work goes to the pool as clients need it.

What you'll do

• Edit long-form YouTube videos from raw footage to final export.
• Build the story: the hook, the structure and the payoff.
• Keep the pacing tight from the first minute to the last.
• Work with the producer and the creator on notes.

You'll be great if

• You have cut long-form YouTube videos that people watched to the end.
• You read the retention graph as closely as the timeline.
• You can show a portfolio with view counts.
• You are organised with footage, versions and deadlines.

How it works

• A short review of your portfolio.
• Then a paid trial edit.
• Then ongoing work as clients need it.
