**SOCIAL VIDEO EDITOR**
Knwn Local | Breaking and Building Leaders Podcast
**If you can't edit like this, this job is not for you.** You must at least be able to edit at this level:
**About Knwn Local**
At Knwn Local, we don't just create videos—we transform real estate businesses. If you're exceptional at what you do and align with our core values**:Proactive Curiosity, Transparent Communication, Extreme Ownership,** and **Beyond Excellence**, we want to know you, so keep reading.
If not, we're probably not the right fit, and that's okay.
We're hiring a **Social Video Editor** to create short-form content for our podcast brand **Breaking and Building Leaders** and our company brand **Knwn Local** on a full-time, remote basis. We're scaling from one to two episodes per week, expanding our short-form presence, and need someone who can transform long-form gold into scroll-stopping clips.
**Role**:
As a Social Video Editor focused on podcast and brand content, you will transform long-form podcast episodes and company content into high-impact short-form clips that drive engagement, build authority, and grow our audience across YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok, and LinkedIn. You will work directly under our Content Lead alongside a high-performing media team, identifying the moments that matter and crafting them into scroll-stopping content. This role combines creative ownership with data-driven iteration—turning conversations into clips that perform.
**You're probably a fit if you**:
- Get genuinely excited about finding the 60-second moment in a 60-minute conversation
- Understand that pacing, hooks, and retention are skills—not luck
- Care about data and performance insights, not just creative expression
- Want to be part of a growing company where ownership and impact are real, not corporate buzzwords
- Embrace "life first, business fills the gaps"—but bring intensity when you're on the clock
**You're probably NOT a fit if you**:
- Need constant direction or hand-holding to do your best work
- Treat feedback as criticism instead of fuel for growth
- Are looking for "just a job" rather than something you can own
- Chase trends without understanding why they work
- Optimize for looking good over doing good work
**Responsibilities**:
**Content Creation & Editing**
- Edit 15-25 short-form videos per week from podcast episodes and long-form content, maintaining consistent 48-72 hour turnaround times
- Identify the highest-performing moments and craft them into must-watch clips
- Add subtitles, captions, and motion graphics to improve accessibility and engagement
- Keep project files and asset management well-organized and up-to-date
- Maintain brand consistency across all content while keeping it fresh and platform-native
**Performance & Optimization**
- Analyze performance data to understand what's working and iterate accordingly (data collection, retention graphs, and post-mortem reviews for continuous improvement)
- Adapt editing style based on platform-specific best practices (YouTube Shorts vs. Reels vs. TikTok)
- Stay ahead of short-form trends and experiment with new formats, transitions, and storytelling techniques
- Conduct competitor analysis and trend research to stay ahead of platform algorithms and audience preferences
**Collaboration & Communication**
- Communicate daily, promptly, and often. Report progress so we can maintain a seamless workflow
- Work closely with the content team to execute a cohesive cross-platform strategy
- Communicate proactively—flag blockers early, ask smart questions, share insights
- Respond to Slack messages within 4 hours during working hours; participate in weekly team syncs
**Requirements**:
**Technical Skills**
- Expert proficiency in Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci, or equivalent editing software
- Strong eye for pacing, storytelling, and emotional beats
- Experience with subtitles, captions, and basic motion graphics
- Deep understanding of what performs on each platform (TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn)
**Experience**
- 2+ years editing short-form content for social media
- Proven track record of driving engagement—show us clips that performed
- Bonus: Experience with podcast/interview content, leadership/business content, or real estate
**Mindset**
- Data-driven: You interpret analytics to refine your editing choices
- Speed with quality: Comfortable with fast turnaround without sacrificing craft
- Ownership mentality: You treat projects like they're yours, not just assigned tasks
- Curious and coachable: You ask "why did that work?" and actually implement feedback
**Results**:
**Within 30 Days**:
- Onboarded into our systems (Slack, Notion, file management)
- Producing 5-10 clips per week at brand standard
- First-approval rate of 70%+ (edits need mínimal revision)
**Within 60 Days**:
- Producing 10-15 clips per week at full capacity
