Contract Script Editor

Role Description

We're building a 50-lesson video academy for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth parents and grandparents. The content teaches families how to raise financially capable, self-directed kids rather than passive inheritors.

The scripts are written. We've already edited 10 internally and need an editor to work through the remaining 40. There's potential to extend into curriculum review after the scripts are complete.

What You'd Be Editing

• 40 video scripts (~975–1,285 words each), written to camera and spoken directly to parents and grandparents.
• Each script runs 7–9 minutes on screen.
• The scripts cover 5 topics with 10 scripts in each: money, entrepreneurship, investing, mindset, and family dynamics.
• 10 scripts have already been completed internally.
• Potential contract extension: Editing curriculum materials for all 50 lessons (including the 40 lessons from the scripts already edited).
• Each lesson has activity guides, conversation prompts, and age-specific applications.

What We're Looking For

• Audience fit: Content should speak directly to HNW/UHNW parents and grandparents.
• Every line earns its place: Each script and sentence should add value, cutting fluff while remaining personalized and conversational.
• Smooth transitions: Sections should flow naturally without abrupt shifts.
• AI detection: Flag any language, rhythm, or phrasing that reads as AI-generated.
• Age-tier breakdowns: Each script includes lesson applications broken down by age tier, structured correctly and applicable to kids at that stage.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit and proofread video scripts for clarity, coherence, and alignment with learning objectives.
• Provide feedback on content structure, pacing, and effectiveness in conveying complex ideas to a non-expert audience.
• Ensure consistency in tone and style across all 40 scripts while adhering to brand voice guidelines.
• Collaborate with our team and subject matter experts to align script content with each lesson's intended outcomes.
• Conduct light research on relevant topics when needed to verify accuracy or strengthen depth.
• Facilitate revisions based on stakeholder feedback and improve final outputs accordingly.
• Maintain version control and organize files systematically for team access.
• Deliver edited scripts on a rolling basis within project timelines — 20 scripts by June 29th, remaining 20 on a schedule we agree on together.

You're a Good Fit If

• Learning and development background: Experience building or reviewing training programs, course content, or instructional materials.
• Video and spoken-word editing experience: Familiarity with e-learning modules, corporate training videos, and instructor-led scripts.
• Experience across a wide age range: Curriculum spans ages 5 through 25, with activities tailored for different developmental stages.
• Familiarity with high-performing audiences: Experience designing or editing for executive-level or affluent audiences.
• AI detection instinct: Ability to identify language that feels off without using detection tools.
• Detail-oriented and self-directed: Exceptional command of English, sharp eye for grammar and style consistency.
• Education and experience: Proven experience editing video scripts or educational materials, preferably in an L&D context.
• Available to start ASAP: Target of 20 scripts edited by June 29th.

How This Works

• We'll send you one script as a paid test ($75–$100). Edit it, mark it up, and send it back.
• If we're aligned on what good looks like, we'll move forward with the remaining 39 scripts.
• Start date: ASAP.
• Scripts: Flat rate per script, $75–$100 depending on experience (~975–1,285 words per script).
• Curriculum (potential contract extension): Editing curriculum for all 50 lessons, including the 40 from the script phase.
• Timeline: 20 scripts edited by June 29th, with the remaining 20 on a rolling basis after that.
