  • Organize and manage large libraries of existing footage and creative assets
  • Cut, trim, and sequence clips to tell clear, compelling stories aligned with brand voice and marketing goals
  • Add basic motion graphics, text overlays, captions, transitions, and sound/music as needed
  • Collaborate with the marketing lead and scriptwriter to align edits with content strategy and campaign objectives
  • Iterate on edits based on feedback and performance insights from prior content
  • Maintain a consistent visual style across brands while respecting each brand’s unique identity
  • Manage tasks, deadlines, and priorities within ClickUp

  • Scope:
    • Primary focus on an eCommerce automotive seat cover brand
    • Additional work supporting other business ventures and the founder’s personal brand

  • Location: Remote

  • Proficiency in at least one professional editing tool (Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, etc.)
  • Comfortable working with large volumes of raw footage and organizing content efficiently
  • Basic knowledge of sound design, color correction, and simple motion graphics/text
  • Ability to interpret scripts or briefs and translate them into engaging edits
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • Ability to work independently, manage time effectively, and meet deadlines in a remote environment
  • Experience with ClickUp or similar project management tools (or willingness to learn quickly)
  • Familiarity with general AI tools for editing assistance, ideation, or workflow efficiency is a plus
