About the Role:

Whistle is an international B2B Go-To-Market (GTM) agency helping tech companies scale their revenue engines through practical, no-fluff content built specifically for sales and marketing leaders around the world. We are looking for a skilled Video Editor to take raw recordings, including talking-head videos, podcast-style conversations, screen shares, and call breakdowns, and transform them into engaging, high-retention videos that our audience actually finishes watching. You will own the post-production process from rough footage to upload-ready files, as well as repurpose each long-form video into high-impact Shorts and clips for LinkedIn.


What You'll Do:

  • Long-Form Editing: Edit raw footage for tight pacing and clarity—cutting the waffle while keeping the substance.
  • Visual Enhancement: Add dynamic captions, lower thirds, B-roll, simple motion graphics, and on-screen text to make dense B2B sales and marketing topics easy to follow.
  • Short-Form Repurposing: Identify key moments and produce 2 to 3 vertical clips from every long-form video tailored for YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn.
  • Packaging & Optimization: Design eye-catching thumbnails and craft compelling, honest titles, SEO-friendly descriptions, and relevant timestamps that drive clicks without clickbait.
  • Brand & Asset Management: Maintain a consistent visual identity using Whistle's brand assets, organize and manage a shared footage library, and maintain predictable turnaround times.
  • Performance-Driven Iteration: Review channel analytics with the team monthly (retention curves, click-through rate, and drop-off points) and apply those insights to continuously refine your editing approach.

Monthly Deliverables:

  • 4 x Long-Form YouTube Videos (maximum 20 minutes each), fully uploaded and optimized with searchable headlines, keyword-rich descriptions, custom thumbnails, and timestamps.
  • 8 - 12 x Short-Form Vertical Clips (2–3 clips per long-form video) formatted for YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn.
  • 1 x Monthly Channel Performance Report summarizing key metrics and actionable takeaways for future edits.

What Were Looking For:

  • Proven Experience: At least 2 years of experience editing YouTube content, ideally for a business or B2B channel, backed by a strong portfolio.
  • Platform Fluency: A clear understanding of what holds viewer attention on YouTube and how pacing and hooks differ on LinkedIn.
  • Editorial Instinct: The ability to watch a 40-minute conversation and independently spot the 45 seconds worth clipping.
  • Reliability & Communication: Strong time management skills—you hit your deadlines and communicate early if a timeline is ever at risk of slipping.
  • Nice to Have: Basic graphic/thumbnail design skills & Familiarity with YouTube SEO best practices.
