Your Role

Cut videos that are not a highlight reel but the gospel lived out in real time. Ensure the story holds the viewer's attention and serves as a front-line discipleship tool.

What You’ll Own

• Edit 4-8 long-form YouTube videos per month (vlogs, docu-series, interviews)
• Build and maintain a repeatable workflow inside ClickUp and Google Drive
• Make narrative decisions that serve retention
• Deliver color-corrected, mixed, and fully formatted videos with thumbnail assets and chapter markers ready for upload
• Bring one creative experiment per quarter with a clear hypothesis, execute it, and report results with data
• Flag problems early and communicate before the deadline

This Role Is NOT For You

• Never edited YouTube videos that consistently crossed 500K+ views
• Treat deadlines as suggestions or need repeated follow-up to close out a deliverable
• Edit to show off your style instead of serving the story and the audience
• Not comfortable working in a faith-driven environment where the mission shapes every content decision
• Do not track retention data or care about why viewers drop off

Non-Negotiable Requirements

• 4+ years editing narrative, vlog, or docu-style content specifically for YouTube
• Portfolio that includes long-form videos with verifiable performance (link to videos with visible view counts and retention context)
• Expert-level Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Audition
• Working knowledge of YouTube analytics: AVD, CTR, impression-to-watch ratio, and how edits influence each
• Proficiency in ClickUp and Google Drive as production tools

Compensation

$1,200-$3,000 per video based on complexity and experience. Two-month trial period. Transitions to a monthly retainer based on performance. Bonuses for videos that exceed performance targets.

How To Apply

• Resume
• Portfolio with direct links to long-form YouTube videos you edited
• Loom video (under 3 minutes)
