The role

We’re hiring two full-time editors to join our growing content team. These are long-term freelance roles where you’ll be working on meaningful, high-impact content every week — helping us tell stories that change lives and support a mission that matters.

This isn’t a mindless churn job or a TikTok edits factory. You’ll be shaping stories from the ground up — everything from emotional client testimonials and transformation pieces, to punchy YouTube videos, course modules, social ads, and behind-the-scenes reels from our Sanctuary project.

Some edits will be tight and efficient. Others will require emotional pacing, story structure, and creative choices that help people feel something — and take action. We’re not just looking for software skill — we’re looking for editors who get storytelling.

One of these roles will likely be more senior, one more junior — but we’ll figure that out based on who applies. What matters most is your taste, your attitude, and your ability to bring content to life.

key responsibilities

  • Edit long-form YouTube videos, interviews, testimonials, and training content
  • Cut short-form content for social (Reels, TikToks, vertical ad creatives)
  • Edit online course modules in a clear, consistent, branded style
  • Add music, sound design, pacing, and visual polish without overdoing it
  • Work from structured briefs — but also contribute creative input where it adds value
  • Maintain consistent tone, quality, and brand feel across platforms

about you

  • You’re fluent in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve (we’re flexible, just be good)
  • You can cut fast, clean, and to a consistent style
  • You have strong story instincts and a good sense of emotional pacing
  • You’re organised with your timelines, folders, exports, and revisions
  • You’re confident receiving feedback and working as part of a creative team

bonus points (not required)

  • You’ve worked in branded content, YouTube, social media, or education
  • You’re familiar with Frame.io, Google Drive, and working with remote teams
  • You’ve edited short-form ads or vertical content for conversions
  • You’ve worked with footage from Sony cinema cameras
  • You follow editors or storytellers who influence your style and keep you improving

what you'll get

  • £27K–£38K salary equivalent (paid monthly)
  • A consistent, full-time workload you can rely on
  • Loads of variety — from high-end edits to fast-turn social
  • Clear briefs, structure, and team support — but space to flex your creativity
  • The satisfaction of editing work that genuinely helps people and dogs
  • A tight-knit, focused team with zero fluff and loads of momentum
