Short-Form Video Editor

GrowthAssistant connects top marketing and operations talent with fast-growing companies that depend on great execution to scale. Founded in 2021 and named by Forbes as one of the best startups to work at, we're a permanently remote team that runs on integrity, proactive candor, and a bias toward action — and we prioritize the human experience in everything we do. We hire for skill and for heart, and we invest in our people for the long haul.

We are building our priority talent pool for Short-Form Video Editor opportunities. Edit engaging short-form content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and similar channels.

• Feedback & Accuracy: Apply editorial feedback quickly, maintain consistent voice, and ensure accurate captions and exports.
