About EARLY
EARLY is a fast-growing health startup focused on safe, doctor-led weight loss. We work with endocrinologists, founders, and real patient stories to build high-trust, high-retention content across Instagram, YouTube, and other platforms.
We are building a long-term brand, not chasing one-off virality. This role is for someone who understands storytelling, pacing, brand consistency, and audience psychology.
Role Overview
As a Part-Time Video Editor, you will own the end-to-end video output for the brand.
This is not a freelance or task-based role.
You will be expected to think like a brand editor who understands what should be cut, what should be amplified, and what should never go out.
Key Responsibilities
- Own EARLY's video content quality and consistency across short-form and long-form formats, ensuring all output aligns with brand tone, medical responsibility, and growth goals
- Translate raw footage from founders, doctors, podcasts, and shoots into high-retention, brand-safe narratives across platforms
- Shape and repurpose long-form content into scalable short-form formats, making strong editorial decisions on what works and what doesn't
- Collaborate with the core team to continuously improve content direction and performance based on audience response and feedback
Requirements & Qualifications
- 2-4+ years of hands-on experience editing videos for brands, startups, creators, or media platforms (short-form + long-form)
- Bachelor's degree or equivalent practical training in Film, Media Studies, Mass Communication, Design, Visual Communication, Animation, or a related field
- (Formal degree preferred, strong portfolio can substitute)
- Strong command over Adobe Premiere Pro with a solid understanding of:
- Visual pacing and storytelling
- Audio cleanup and dialogue editing
- Captioning and on-screen text hierarchy
- Proven ability to edit retention-focused short-form content for platforms like Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and TikTok
- Experience working with raw, unscripted footage (interviews, podcasts, doctor or founder content)
- Strong attention to detail, deadline ownership, and comfort with feedback and iterations
- Ability to think beyond execution and make editorial decisions aligned with brand and audience goals
This Role Is NOT For You If
- You only want freelance-style or template-based work
- You are uncomfortable with feedback and revisions
- You don't care about brand consistency or quality control
- You are not interested in learning the product or audience
What We Offer
- A long-term role with a fast-growing brand
- Clear ownership of video output and quality
- Work that actually goes live, performs, and compounds
What We Need From You
- Updated CV
- Editing portfolio (short-form + long-form)
- Professional social media links
- Cover Letter
