Senior Video Editor - Top-Tier YouTube Creator (10M+ Subscribers)

We’re looking for a Senior Video Editor and a Motion Graphics Designer to join a world-class creative team producing strange, dark, and mysterious storytelling content for a global YouTube audience.

For reference, think along the lines of MrBallen, Coffeehouse Crime, or Truly Criminal—suspenseful pacing, clean production, and eerie storytelling that pulls you in without overdoing the effects.

Whether your strength lies in crafting suspenseful, emotionally grounded edits—or designing visuals that add depth to complex narratives—we’re hiring for both roles and welcome applications from candidates who specialize in one or thrive in both.

🎁 Perks & Benefits

  • 💵 Paid in USD, every 15th & 30th of the month
  • 🏖️ Up to 14 days of Paid Time Off annually (starting Day 1)
  • 📅 Observance of Holidays (based on your location)
  • 🏡 100% remote – with flexible hours and overlap in Eastern Standard Time (EST)
  • 🎬 Collaborate with a Hollywood-level production team, including Emmy, Peabody, and Pulitzer-caliber talent
  • 🌍 Work viewed by millions of global fans of true crime and narrative storytelling

🧩 What You’ll Be Doing

✂️ Senior Video Editor Responsibilities

  • Edit 10–20 minute long-form YouTube videos using talking head content, B-roll, music, and light visual elements
  • Structure cuts to follow clear narrative arcs, maintaining viewer engagement from intro to end
  • Apply subtle effects, audio cleanup, sound design, and pacing strategies that support tone and story
  • Work closely with scriptwriters, producers, and brand leads to align on story direction and feedback

🌀 Motion Graphics Designer Responsibilities

  • Design and animate clean, minimal graphics that enhance storytelling
  • Create animated lower thirds, transitions, kinetic text, infographics, and UI mockups
  • Develop motion templates and systems for scalable edits
  • Integrate visuals that help explain complex ideas, emphasize key takeaways, or support voiceovers

✅ Who You Are

For Senior Video Editors:

  • 3+ years of experience editing long-form YouTube or documentary-style content
  • Skilled in Premiere Pro with strong narrative and pacing instincts
  • Comfortable editing from script or rough cut with minimal supervision
  • 🏅 Bonus: Experience with light audio mixing, SFX, or thumbnail strategy

For Motion Graphics Designers:

  • 3+ years of experience creating motion graphics for video, social, or branded content
  • Proficient in After Effects (or similar tools) with a strong sense of timing and visual hierarchy
  • 🏅 Bonus: Experience working in content with mystery, storytelling, or documentary tones

📩 How to Apply

Please submit:

  1. ✅ Your updated resume
  2. ✅ A 1–2 minute Loom video introducing yourself and the role you're applying for (Video Editor or Motion Designer)
  3. ✅ A portfolio, reel, or YouTube playlist with at least 2 relevant video samples

Whether you're a motion-first designer or a video editor with a storyteller’s eye—we’d love to see your work ✨
