Mandatory Skills:
  • Proven experience editing long-form video content, particularly talking-head or educational-style videos
  • Proficiency in a professional video editing tool such as CapCut, Final Cut Pro, or similar
  • Strong ability to add clean, well-placed text overlays and follow brand guidelines
  • Excellent sense of pacing, timing, and visual flow
  • Sharp attention to detail in trimming, cutting, and refining raw footage
  • Dependable, detail-focused, and able to work independently
  • Strong communication skills and quick responsiveness
Preferred Skills:
  • Experience designing YouTube thumbnails
  • Familiarity with editing audio content or pairing audio with music (e.g., meditations, podcasts)
  • Experience producing calm, wellness, or lifestyle-style content
  • A grasp of YouTube best practices and audience engagement
  • Able to take on additional creative and administrative tasks as the role grows
Why Join Us: This is a wonderful chance to work closely with a passionate content creator and play a key role in bringing meaningful, calming content to life. You'll enjoy creative input, a collaborative working relationship, and room to grow into expanded responsibilities as the channel develops. If you love clean, thoughtful editing and want your work to make a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.
