What you'll do
- Develop a content plan for each client and derive a clear production plan for the cutters.
- Find topics, hooks and titles for all main YouTube videos and write the scripts yourself.
- Accompany shoots, understand camera, light and sound, and operate the camera when needed.
- Approve every video before it goes to the client and send back what is not good enough.
- Lead the cutter team, give regular concrete feedback and measurably improve every editor.
- Ensure every longform video yields usable clips and ad creatives.

- A portfolio of videos you were responsible for, ideally with measurable results such as views, click rate and audience retention.
- Solid understanding of what makes a video viral: hook, title, thumbnail, storytelling and retention.
- Strong sense for ideas and scripts: you write YouTube scripts yourself that keep viewers to the end.
- High-level editing: longform, shortform and cinematic – ideally you are a creator yourself.
- Confident handling of camera, light and sound: you can shoot yourself.

- Leadership experience: you manage several cutters at once, plan production and give feedback that improves your team.
- Confident client communication: you run weeklys and defend your content decisions to demanding entrepreneurs.
- High standards: no video leaves your team that you do not stand behind yourself.
- Own initiative: you do not wait for instructions but bring in your own ideas and trends.
