VIDEO EDITOR, THE DIARY OF A CEO

COMPANY : FLIGHTSTORY

REPORTING TO : HEAD OF PRODUCTION OPERATIONS

LOCATION: LOS ANGELES, USA or LONDON, UK

ABOUT FLIGHTSTORY

We are a media and investment company, and we are on a mission to elevate the stories, build the communities, and support the founders that inspire a happier, healthier humanity. We scale creator-led media, ventures and communities.

MISSION

The Diary of a CEO is on a mission to create the most impactful conversations in the world.

We are looking to hire people who want to shape culture at scale. If you’re exceptional at your craft, obsessed with storytelling, and thrive in high-standards environments, we want to hear from you.

As a Long-Form Video Editor, you’ll play a critical role in transforming raw 9–13 camera footage into episodes that hold attention for millions worldwide. These retention-driven edits are the heartbeat of the show, conversations that change how people think, live, and work. You’ll collaborate with a world-class production team, owning edits end-to-end, and continuously pushing what’s possible in long-form storytelling on YouTube.

DAY-TO-DAY

  • Edit and deliver weekly podcast episodes at the highest standard, crafting narratives that drive strong retention and emotional impact.
  • Cut with precision: 9–13 multicam angles, multiple audio channels, pacing that keeps millions engaged.
  • Collaborate closely with senior creatives, adapting quickly to feedback and evolving creative direction.
  • Contribute to pre-production outlines and packaging to ensure alignment between recording and post.
  • Conduct competitor and trend research to stay ahead of long-form YouTube standards.
  • Share knowledge, systems, and best practices to raise the bar across the editing team.
  • Maintain project files and workflows that are seamless, scalable, and production-ready.

WE’RE LOOKING FOR

  • Minimum 3+ years professional editing experience, with a portfolio of long-form multicam edits (podcasts, interviews, documentaries).
  • Advanced in Adobe Premiere Pro; comfortable with large multicam timelines, syncing, and file management.
  • Deep instinct for pacing, rhythm, and story structure in long-form content.
  • Understanding of retention curves and editing choices that maximise watch-time.
  • Exceptional attention to detail, organisation, and communication skills.
  • Growth mindset: proactive, solutions-oriented, and eager to experiment with new techniques.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

  • Deliver long-form edits that consistently achieve high retention and millions of views.
  • Contribute to a publishing cadence that ensures episodes release seamlessly every week.
  • Elevate team standards by contributing workflows, systems, and creative direction.
  • Help The Diary of a CEO remain the global leader in long-form podcast storytelling

LOCATION

  • London or Los Angeles - we are an in-person-first culture and believe in fostering a vibrant and work environment centred around connection and community.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
