Exciting Full-Time Video Editor Role with KJMD on YouTube

We are seeking an exceptional video editor for long-term collaboration on the KJMD YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/channel/UC8KZzzSLN6r0jbPJvWC5f9g

This role requires an average commitment of 30 hours per week.

You’ll work closely with me and my content team, including social media managers and editors. We’re looking for someone with a sharp eye for detail and a dedication to thoroughness, as outlined in this job post. Strong communication skills and integrity are essential. I highly value organization and meticulousness, and the ideal candidate must consistently meet deadlines—this is non-negotiable.

REQUIREMENTS:
- Detail-oriented, clear communicator, able to follow instructions
- Reliable & integrous. Say what you’ll do and do what you say
- Resourceful, organized, and proactive. As you face challenges, you should be able to think independently and come up with appropriate solutions
- Intimately familiar with either Final Cut or Adobe editing suite
- Fast computer (able to edit 4K footage)
- Fast internet (to download and upload files)
- Familiar with color correction and grading
- Experience with Photoshop (to make thumbnails)

MY WORK FLOW:
1. I will upload video files + separate audio files. Please visit YouTube channel (KJMD) for examples so you know what to expect.
2. There is generally a script for these videos. I film with 2 cameras, recording 4k footage on a studio + B roll taken with my iPhone. I record audio on a separate DR10L device and you will be responsible for gathering additional B rolls from stock footage.
3. You send me a first draft. This first draft should be polished and YouTube-ready, including color correction & grading, cuts/transitions, text, and B roll. I would also like to see 3 thumbnail drafts at this time.
4. I will provide feedback on that first draft, as well as the thumbnails, and usually the second draft should be ready to publish on YouTube. Occasionally, a third draft may be required, but we shouldn't ever have to go to a 4th draft.
5. Our team will upload and publish to YouTube.

In the beginning, there will be more collaboration to align on style and expectations. However, as you become more familiar with our brand, you’ll gain increased autonomy, allowing you to make independent decisions on what looks best and works most effectively.
