Location: Gurgaon
Experience: 1 to 3 years
Role overview
BestMediaInfo is looking for a video-first content professional who can turn editorial stories, interviews, events and conversations into strong video content for YouTube and Instagram.
The role will focus on editing reels, short videos, podcast cuts, and longer YouTube formats. The person should be able to edit fast, understand platform behaviour, write sharp captions and package content in a way that feels native to social media.
Key responsibilities
- Edit reels, shorts and social-first videos from interviews, bytes and newsroom content.
- Edit longer YouTube videos from interviews, discussions, explainers and podcast recordings.
- Cut one long conversation into multiple short clips for Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts.
- Add subtitles, text overlays, lower thirds, basic transitions, music beds and simple motion elements.
- Write platform-friendly captions, hooks, titles and thumbnail text.
- Work with the editorial team to identify the strongest clips, moments and talking points.
- Prepare videos in the right format, duration and aspect ratio for each platform.
- Do basic audio clean-up for podcast and interview content.
- Maintain an organised archive of raw footage, project files and final outputs.
- Support basic thumbnail selection and visual packaging for YouTube and Instagram.
What we are looking for
- 1 to 3 years of experience in video editing for digital, social, or media brands.
- Good command of Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, or similar editing tools.
- Basic working knowledge of After Effects or equivalent for simple text and motion graphics.
- Strong understanding of Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and long-form YouTube content.
- Ability to spot the most usable moments in a long interview or conversation.
- Comfort with subtitles, social text overlays, and fast-turnaround edits.
- Decent copy sense for captions, video titles, and hooks.
- Basic understanding of thumbnail packaging and audience attention on social platforms.
- Ability to handle multiple edits in a deadline-driven environment.
Preferred background
- Experience in a newsroom, digital publisher, creator-led setup, or media brand will be an advantage.
- Familiarity with business, media, advertising or marketing content will help.
- Basic design sense for thumbnails and social packaging is a plus.
- Hindi and English comprehension for clip selection and subtitling is useful.
Note: This role is primarily for editing, packaging and platform-ready video output. It is not a senior strategy role. It is also not meant to fully own advanced shoot production, complex motion graphics, or a full podcast setup from scratch. The hire should be strong on execution and social video instincts.
