Job Summary
A contractual Editor – Video Producer responsible for producing and editing high-quality long-form and short-form digital content for an international YouTube-based entertainment channel.
While the role is heavily editing-focused, the ideal candidate must also possess a strong producer's mindset — someone who understands storytelling, audience engagement, comedic pacing, content structure, workflow management, and how to shape raw footage into compelling entertainment for digital audiences.
