About the Role

Our client is a growing marketing agency serving flight schools across the U.S., building a stronger content-driven brand around aviation marketing and business growth. They're looking for a Long-Form Video Editor to turn founder-recorded footage into polished, engaging YouTube content with strong storytelling and retention.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit founder-led long-form YouTube content (approximately 30–45 minutes of raw footage per video)
• Improve pacing, structure, storytelling, and viewer retention
• Remove unnecessary repetition and weak sections
• Follow scripts, storyboards, and creative direction from the Content Strategist
• Work directly with the strategist on edits and revisions
• Maintain a consistent visual and storytelling style

• Strong attention to detail
• Ability to follow a specific creative reference and style
• Comfortable working remotely and collaborating with a strategist

Ideal Candidate

Someone who thrives on shaping raw, unscripted footage into a clear narrative — not just cutting clips, but making editorial decisions about what stays and what goes. They're comfortable taking direction from a Content Strategist while still bringing their own editorial judgment to pacing and structure. Detail-oriented, reliable, and able to maintain a consistent style across a recurring weekly deliverable.
