Our client, Veicolo Agency , is a growth marketing agency working with fashion, luxury, and high-end eCommerce brands. They are looking for an exceptionally talented Video Editor with an elite aesthetic eye, heavy mastery of a professional NLE (Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, or similar), and a strong portfolio in long-form "talking head" and presenter-style videos.
In this role, you will be responsible for editing 2 to 3 high-caliber, long-form YouTube videos per week that align with our high standards of luxury branding, polished visual storytelling, and clean post-production execution. While long-form presenter content is your primary focus, an interest in direct-response ad creative development and transforming long-form content into short-form assets (Reels/TikTok/Shorts) is a great bonus.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Edit long-form content: Edit 2-3 polished, studio-grade long-form YouTube videos per week featuring presenter/talking-head footage, maintaining flawless audio balance, elegant color grading, dynamic pacing, and refined on-screen typography.
- Maintain luxury visual standards: Protect and elevate brand visual identity across all cuts, ensuring graphics, visual hooks, B-roll selection, and transitions reflect high-end, premium brand aesthetics.
- Design and animate on-screen graphics: Build and animate full-screen cards, kinetic text, and creative typographic lockups in After Effects or comparable tool that hold attention and stay true to the brand.
- Support ad development & creative testing (bonus/secondary): Collaborate with our creative strategists to develop high-converting video ad concepts,
test visual hooks, and chop key insights from long-form content into short-form assets (Reels/TikTok/Shorts). Quick-turn short-form edits can be cut in CapCut.
- Streamline post-production workflow: Organize raw footage, manage project files cleanly in your NLE and After Effects, use AI tools to speed up repetitive tasks, and deliver sound-mixed, color-corrected, export-ready cuts efficiently on schedule.
REQUIREMENTS
- Proven long-form portfolio: A strong portfolio demonstrating advanced editing skills in long-form YouTube, presenter, or talking-head style videos (clean pacing, typography, seamless B-roll integration, and professional color grading).
- Professional NLE mastery: Advanced, hands-on expert proficiency in a professional NLE such as Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, or Avid Media Composer, plus working fluency in CapCut for quick-turn short-form edits.
- Animation & motion graphics: Strong After Effects skills, specifically for full-screen cards: animating text, building creative typographic lockups, and bringing static graphics to life with clean, restrained motion suited to a luxury brand.
- AI-assisted workflow: Hands-on experience using AI tools to speed up the workflow (e.g.,
transcription and text-based editing, AI audio cleanup, rotoscoping and masking, generative fill, upscaling) and integrating them into your After Effects and NLE pipeline without compromising quality.
- Editorial judgment & pattern recognition: Experience editing a high volume of similar presenter-led videos, giving you the pattern recognition and discernment to know when to cut, when to hold, when to punch in, and where to place B-roll, graphics, and text. You vary pacing across a video instead of cutting at one flat rhythm.
- Pacing & emotion: Ability to adjust pacing, take selection, and cut points so the edit evokes the intended emotion, letting a key line breathe or building momentum into a payoff so each section lands the way it's meant to feel.
- Retention-first editing: Retention-based editing is the core of this role. Every cut is built to keep viewers watching: a strong first 30 seconds, pattern interrupts where attention dips, clear chapters and end screens, and YouTube Studio retention data used to sharpen the next edit.
- Current on YouTube trends & editing styles: You actively follow what's working on YouTube right now, from top creators in business and education to new editing techniques, motion design trends, and shifts in how audiences watch. You bring fresh, cutting-edge ideas to each edit and know how to adapt them to a luxury look without chasing gimmicks.
- Working with raw footage across multiple takes: Comfortable sorting through raw footage from multiple takes, plus unscript
