Description:

We’re on the hunt for a YouTube Shorts Manager who can blend creativity with strategy and make vertical video magic happen. This isn’t just a video editor role — it’s a creative leadership position for someone who can take raw ideas and mold them into captivating, platform-native Shorts that perform. In this role, you’ll lead the charge on all things Shorts — from planning and scripting to editing and optimizing. If you’re someone who understands what makes YouTube Shorts tick, knows how to optimize for the platform, and can experiment with new formats, we want you. This role requires a mix of creativity, editing know-how, and platform-savvy instincts — if you know the difference between a viral moment and just a cool idea, you're who we want. You’ll collaborate with our creative team to brainstorm hooks, write concise scripts, and produce content that hits hard — fast. You’ll be analyzing performance, experimenting with new styles, and iterating constantly to see what works.

Basic Qualifications:

• Analyze audience demographics and adjust style or pacing to match what's resonating.
• Develop video templates and editing frameworks that make production smoother and faster over time.
• Collaborate with design and motion graphics for dynamic overlays, transitions, or CTA animations.
• Balance storytelling and punchiness—every second of a Short matters.
• Quickly react to real-time events, trends, or memes that can spark viral Shorts opportunities.

Preferred:

• Understands how to repurpose long-form YouTube content into Shorts.
• Can turn product features, tips, or moments into 15–60 second stories.
• Has managed or contributed to a YouTube channel with consistent content uploads.
• Strong understanding of the YouTube Shorts algorithm and best practices for visibility.
• Analytical mindset when reviewing Shorts metrics like CTR, audience retention, and shares.

Benefits:

• We’ll actually test your ideas — not nod and forget them.
• Paid tools, AI platforms, and analytics dashboards — all at your fingertips.
• We care more about punchy intros than polished suits — bring your energy.
• Flexible hours — just post when the audience is watching, not when the clock says.
• Your wins get shoutouts, bonuses, and actual recognition.

You should be skilled at editing, know how to work with music and effects, and understand how to make the most of a 60-second video. You should be confident editing mobile-first, vertical videos that pack a punch in under 60 seconds. From thumbnail choices to snappy captions and music selection, every detail counts — and you’ll be in charge of all of it. You should be fluent in editing tools (even mobile ones), understand pacing, punchlines, and retention tricks, and know how to create attention-grabbing thumbnails and titles for Shorts. Let’s build a Shorts channel that doesn’t just follow trends — it creates them. Show us you get the platform — and we’ll give you the space to own it. This is your playground — bring your vision, your hustle, and your best 60 seconds.
