The posting

Job Title: Senior Video Editor (Documentary & Short-Form Social Content) Location: Remote Role Type: Full-Time (60 hours/week, 6 days) Working Hours: 4PM - 2AM (+8 GMT), Monday to Saturday

Who Are We? At Reef, we connect elite commercial talent with high-growth companies building world-class operational teams. We work exclusively with the top 3% of candidates and match you with established companies across Australia, New Zealand, the US, and UK who invest seriously in their business infrastructure.

We support your integration into these companies by providing you with additional training, admin/HR support, and adding you to our community of high-level professionals.

About the Role We're seeking an experienced Senior Video Editor to join a US-based media company producing conservative, news-focused content on immigration, border security, crime, and national security. This role focuses on cinematic long-form documentary content (10-45+ minutes) alongside short-form social clips cut from the same material for YouTube, X, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook.

You'll work directly with producers on scripted, voiceover-driven narrative content, owning the edit from raw footage through to published asset across both formats. The production team provides scripts, sourced footage, and clear briefs; you bring the storytelling instinct and technical craft to turn that material into finished, emotionally engaging content.

What success looks like: Delivering every assigned edit on or before deadline within two revision rounds, maintaining a cinematic and journalistic tone across both long-form and short-form output, and producing content that holds viewer attention through strong narrative structure, pacing, and platform-specific optimisation. By month three, you'll be hitting 70%+ first-submission sign-off and anticipating recurring feedback before submission.

This role suits editors who take genuine pride in craft, have real documentary or narrative editing samples to show, and want the stability of a full-time seat rather than project-based work.

Requirements

  • Excellent spoken and written English with strong, proactive communication skills
  • 5+ years hands-on experience editing narrative, documentary, or long-form content
  • Expert-level proficiency in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve
  • Proven portfolio showcasing both long-form narrative work and short-form social clips
  • Strong instincts for pacing, hook structure, and emotional storytelling
  • Confident with audio mixing, colour correction, B-roll integration, sound design, and subtitle formatting
  • Understanding of platform-specific requirements (aspect ratios, opening seconds, caption styles) for Reels, Shorts, and TikTok
  • Ability to self-manage technical issues and file organisation via Google Drive or Dropbox
  • Availability for 60 hours per week, Monday to Saturday, with US daytime overlap
  • Responsiveness on Slack within 15-30 minutes during working hours
  • Fast and reliable internet connection; your own laptop or desktop suitable for the role; a quiet working environment; a good quality microphone or headset

Benefits

  • Compensation
  • $800-$1,200 USD per month, depending on experience and demonstrated output quality
  • Rate reviewed at 90 days based on deadline adherence, revision rates, brand consistency, and producer feedback
  • Top of band ($1,200) reserved for editors consistently delivering first-submission sign-off at 70%+ with zero missed deadlines
  • What's on Offer?
  • Direct engagement with an established US media company with a clear editorial voice
  • Craft-focused role with real ownership of the edit, not a support seat
  • Stable full-time income rather than project-based variability
  • Access to other job opportunities through the Reef network

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.
