Job Description - Short Form Editor & Media Manager

Role Mission

Be the driving force behind the short-form content engine of established, fast-growing founder-led brands.

You’ll work closely with Founders and client teams to turn raw talking-head videos, b-roll, voice notes, event footage, and brand assets into high-performing short-form content for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, and other social platforms.

Your work will directly help founder-led brands grow visibility, attract leads, increase audience engagement, and position themselves as trusted leaders in their industries through sharp, brand-aligned, platform-native content.

Role Responsibilities

Short-Form Video Editing & Content Packaging

  • Transform raw talking-head and b-roll footage into engaging short-form videos with strong hooks, tight pacing, clean cuts, captions, and visual emphasis.
  • Edit platform-native videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, and other short-form content channels.
  • Create multiple short-form formats, including talking-head reels, b-roll remixes, caption-overlay reels, educational videos, founder-brand reels, and promotional clips.
  • Apply strong editing judgment around rhythm, music, transitions, pattern interrupts, zooms, framing, captions, and retention-focused pacing.
  • QA all videos before submission or publication to ensure clean captions, strong audio, correct formatting, brand alignment, and high-quality exports.

Graphic Design & Carousel Content

  • Design branded graphics, carousel posts, quote cards, reel covers, and promotional visuals aligned with each client’s brand guidelines.
  • Turn key ideas, frameworks, quotes, and educational concepts into simple, visually strong carousel content.
  • Create clean caption-overlay graphics and visual assets that support short-form video and social media campaigns.
  • Maintain consistency across typography, colors, layout, spacing, visual hierarchy, and overall brand style.
  • Ensure every graphic or carousel feels polished, platform-native, and aligned with the founder-led brand’s voice and positioning.

Content Creation & Management

  • Use AI to research trends, winning content references, viral short-form formats, competitor content, and creative angles.
  • Review raw content assets to identify strong hooks, clips, moments, b-roll sequences, and short-form content opportunities.
  • Plan and maintain a content calendar to ensure consistent, on-time publishing across social platforms.
  • Organize content assets, including raw footage, b-roll, edited videos, brand photos, graphics, captions, references, and creative briefs.
  • Use AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity to generate first-draft hooks, captions, content angles, and short-form video ideas.

Social Media Engagement & Audience Management

  • Monitor, respond to, and engage with comments, messages, and mentions across social platforms.
  • Help maintain an active, consistent, and professional brand presence for founder-led brands.
  • Support audience growth by identifying relevant online communities, ICP profiles, warm connections, and engagement opportunities.
  • Set up and manage simple ManyChat automations for new followers, CTA opt-ins, and follow-up flows.
  • Track engagement patterns and audience feedback to identify what content is resonating and where improvements can be made.

Tracking & Reporting

  • Generate regular reports on content performance, audience growth, engagement, and short-form video results.
  • Track key metrics such as views, watch time, retention, saves, shares, comments, follows, profile visits, and leads generated.
  • Identify which hooks, formats, topics, editing styles, and visuals are performing best.
  • Provide clear insights and recommendations to improve future content performance.
  • Use AI to make reporting, performance analysis, and repeatable content workflows faster and more efficient.
  • Minimum 3 years of virtual work experience in social media management, content management, or short-form video editing.
  • Strong short-form video editing portfolio, especially for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn videos, and founder-led personal brands.
  • Proven ability to transform raw talking-head footage, b-roll, event clips, and long-form recordings into polished, engaging, high-performing short-form videos.
  • Strong understanding of hooks, pacing, retention, captions, sound design, b-roll usage, visual hierarchy, storytelling, and platform-native editing styles.
  • Ability to create multiple content formats, including talking-head reels, b-roll remixes, caption-overlay reels, carousel posts, educational videos, and promotional clips.
  • Proficient in tools such as CapCut, Descript, DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Premiere Pro, Canva, Photoshop, Figma, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Opus, or similar.
  • Excellent English, strong attention to detail, proactive problem-solving skills, creative judgment, visual taste, and the ability to work independently with founder-led brands.

Role Results / KPIs
