Short-Form Video Editor for Studio & Client Content (Ongoing)

We’re Evolve Studio, a UK-based strategic marketing consultancy. We run regular studio recording sessions for our own brand and for clients, producing high-quality long-form footage that needs turning into effective short-form video.

We’re looking for a skilled video editor to support us on an ongoing basis.
This role is purely focused on editing.

The Work

You’ll be provided with clean, well-shot raw footage from studio sessions (interviews, talking-head content, explainers). Your job is to:

Edit this footage into engaging short-form videos (30–90 seconds typically)

Identify strong hooks within the footage and surface them early

Shape edits that feel natural, confident, and professional — not over-produced

Add captions/subtitles, light motion where appropriate, and clean pacing

Deliver platform-ready outputs for LinkedIn, Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts

We will supply:

Clear briefs

Brand guidelines

Reference examples

Direction on tone and outcomes

You will not be expected to:
- Write captions
- Manage accounts
- Schedule or post content
- Track analytics

What We’re Looking For

This role will suit someone who:
- Has proven experience editing short-form video, ideally for professional services, founders, or B2B brands
- Can spot a hook quickly — a strong line, insight, or moment that stops the scroll
- Understands pacing, structure, and viewer attention (especially in the first 3 seconds)
- Is confident editing talking-head content without relying on gimmicks
- Can follow a brief but also make sensible editorial decisions
- Communicates clearly and hits deadlines

Tools

You should be comfortable using tools such as:
- Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, CapCut, or similar
- Subtitle/caption workflows (native or third-party)
- Basic motion/text overlays where needed

Engagement & Budget
- Ongoing freelance work
- Typically supplied in batches of footage
- Paid per project or hourly (open to proposals)
- Long-term relationship available for the right editor

We’re not looking for the cheapest option, we’re looking for someone reliable, sharp, and commercially aware who can make good footage work harder. We value quality and reliability over speed or volume.
