**Senior YouTube Video Editor (Remote)** **Subject line when applying: “I actually read the instructions”** We’re looking for a sharp, creative, and detail\-obsessed YouTube Video Editor to join our content team. If you live and breathe story pacing, thumbnails, retention curves — and know how to turn 45 minutes of ramble into 10 minutes of gold — keep reading. This is *not* your typical chop\-and\-trim gig. We’re producing YouTube\-first content for real estate creators building real brands. Think: storytelling that sticks, pacing that keeps viewers hooked, and visuals that *actually* matter. **What you'll do:** * Edit long\-form YouTube videos that are clean, compelling, and built for retention. * Craft tight intros, strong hooks, and mid\-video resets that drive watch time. * Suggest titles, choose thumbnails, and think strategically about viewer engagement. * Repurpose long\-form content into YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikToks. * Enhance videos with music, captions, motion graphics, and relevant b\-roll. * Collaborate with our creative team and real estate clients to elevate their voice and message. **What you bring:** * 2–3\+ years of experience editing YouTube\-first content. * Strong understanding of YouTube pacing, retention, and viewer psychology. * Expertise with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve. * Ability to edit clean audio, sharp visuals, and invisible cuts. * Self\-sufficient workflow with strong communication and deadline discipline. * Bonus: Experience editing in business, real estate, or finance verticals. **Success in this role looks like:** * 30–50%\+ average viewer retention on long\-form edits. * Consistent 2–3 week edit buffer per client. * Brand\-aligned visuals and tone — every time. * High satisfaction from both internal and client teams. **Pay \& growth:** * Pay starts at **$8\.50–$11\.00 USD/hour**, depending on experience. * All roles begin with a paid 30–60 day trial to ensure fit and workflow. * Grow into full\-time editor, creative strategist, or account lead as you deliver results. * High performers are first in line for internal promotions — we *love* promoting from within. **To apply:** Send an email to **careers@theownteam.com** with the subject line: **“I actually read the instructions”** Include the following: * Your resume in PDF format, titled: Lastname.Firstname.VideoEditor.pdf * A portfolio or link to your editing work (YouTube, Shorts, Reels, etc.) * A completed DISC assessment: https://www.tonyrobbins.com/disc Optional but encouraged: Tell us 1–2 YouTube channels you think are *crushing it* — and what they’re doing right. Looking forward to seeing what you’ve got. Tipo de puesto: Tiempo completo, Medio tiempo
