Contractor - Video Editor & Graphic Designer

About the Role

You will turn recorded, multi-camera podcast conversations into polished long-form episodes and a cohesive package of short-form video and graphic assets. The work is aimed at a professional audience, so strong editorial judgment, visual clarity, and consistent brand execution matter more than trend-chasing.

Responsibilities

• Edit full-length, multi-camera podcast episodes for YouTube and audio/video distribution
• Produce 3 to 4 vertical video cutdowns per episode for LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts
• Design supporting social assets, including thumbnails, quote cards, carousels, title treatments, and simple motion graphics
• Build consistent intros, outros, lower thirds, captions, end cards, and graphic systems across all assets
• Select compelling cold opens and social moments that work independently while retaining context
• Improve pacing through thoughtful camera switching, split screens, branded graphics, and clean transitions
• Apply established brand standards across video and static design, while elevating the work through strong visual judgment
• Incorporate feedback efficiently and maintain organized project files, exports, and versioning

Requirements

• 3+ years of professional experience in both video editing and graphic design
• A portfolio that demonstrates strong interview or podcast editing, short-form social video, and branded design work
• Advanced proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and Photoshop, plus working proficiency in After Effects, Illustrator, DaVinci Resolve, or comparable tools
• Strong instincts for story, pacing, visual rhythm, typography, composition, and social-first design
• Experience creating polished captions, lower thirds, thumbnails, quote cards, carousels, and lightweight motion graphics
• Detail-oriented with a sharp eye for visual consistency across a multi-asset campaign
• Comfortable working independently within established creative direction and incorporating consolidated feedback
• Reliable communicator who can manage overlapping episode and asset deadlines

Engagement

This is a freelance, contract role with recurring project-based work. Please share a portfolio with relevant video and design samples, along with your hourly or per-episode rate.
