Social Media Editor - Reels / Podcasts

We are looking for a creative External Video Editor to support our growing library of short-form content.

We film weekly with accredited and verified psychologists, creating educational and engaging content for Instagram Reels, TikTok and other social platforms. We have a large backlog of footage and are looking for an editor who can help us turn this into high-quality, creative, engaging short-form content at scale at a fast rate.

What we're looking for:

• Proven experience editing short-form content for social media
• Strong creative instincts and an understanding of what keeps viewers watching
• Professional editing software such as DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro
• Experience with captions, motion graphics, transitions, sound effects, colour grading and visual effects
• Comfortable using AI-generated visuals, video and creative tools to make content more dynamic
• Able to work independently, take creative ownership and make editing decisions
• Professional hardware capable of handling raw footage, colour grading and high-quality exports
  
  

You should be comfortable using:

• Two-camera angles, punch-ins and zooms to avoid static talking-head content
• Strong hooks within the first 1-3 seconds
• Fast cuts, pacing changes and pattern interrupts
• Kinetic typography, animated text and motion graphics
• AI-generated visuals and creative B-roll
• Relevant B-roll, images and overlays
• Sound effects and music beds
• Split screens and creative layouts
• Animated captions and subtitles
• Colour grading and LUTs
• Creative transitions and visual effects
• Strong CTAs and loop-friendly endings
• Removing dead air, unnecessary pauses and filler words
• Creating thumbnail-worthy moments
  
  

Export requirements:

All reels must be delivered in:

• 1080 x 1920 (9:16 vertical)
• Minimum bitrate: 24,000 KB/s
• H.264 or equivalent industry-standard codec
• 24, 25 or 30fps, matching the original footage where possible
• Optimised for Instagram Reels, TikTok and other short-form platforms
  
  

What we provide:

• High-quality raw footage filmed with psychologists
• Existing brand assets and editing templates
• Examples of our preferred editing direction
• Rendered purple and black background assets for use within reels
• Clear briefs and ongoing feedback
  
  

This is a payment per psychologist edited ($50 - 200). One filming pack takes approximately 2/3 days to cut and edit into short and long form content.

If we are interested in your application we will reach out with a task. This task will encompass you editing one psychologist so we can see your competency visually.
