This is not an editor role.

This is a leader of editors role.

You will own the performance, engagement, and output quality of our 40+ global video editors.

You are responsible for building a high-performance editing organization: where output is fast, quality is consistent, and underperformance is handled quickly.

Think of this role as a Head Coach of a Global Editing Team, not a player.

What You’ll Do:

Own Editor Performance

  • Set and enforce clear output and quality standards
  • Track editor-level KPIs (speed, revisions, retention performance of content)
  • Identify underperformance early and act fast

Lead and Manage a Global Team

  • Directly manage 40+ overseas editors
  • Maintain engagement, morale, and accountability across time zones
  • Create a culture of high standards and ownership

Train and Develop Editors

  • Own onboarding and ramp for all new editors
  • Build training systems, SOPs, and editing playbooks
  • Continuously upskill the team based on what’s working in content

Enforce a High-Performance Bar

  • Coach up or transition out underperformers quickly (~2-3 weeks)
  • Maintain a team of A-players only
  • Eliminate bottlenecks and excuses

Improve Systems & Scale

  • Standardize editing frameworks across clients and niches
  • Identify inefficiencies in workflows and fix them
  • Partner with leadership to scale output without sacrificing quality

Operate as an Owner

  • Treat the editing team as a performance engine
  • Balance speed, quality, and cost efficiency
  • Make decisions based on data, not emotion

What We’re Looking For

You are:

A Proven People Leader

  • You’ve managed large teams (ideally remote or overseas)
  • You know how to drive performance—not just maintain relationships

Operationally Strong

  • You think in KPIs, scorecards, and systems
  • You’ve built or improved workflows at scale

High Standards, Low Tolerance for Mediocrity

  • You are comfortable making fast personnel decisions
  • You don’t carry underperformers

Deeply Familiar with Short-Form Content

  • You understand what makes content perform on TikTok, Reels, Shorts
  • You can translate performance into editing direction

Structured and Systems-Driven

  • You build repeatable processes, not chaos
  • You document and standardize what works

Calm, Direct, and Decisive

  • You can manage a high-volume team without getting reactive
  • You give clear, direct feedback

Minimum Requirements

  • 3-5+ years managing editors or creative teams
  • Experience managing remote or international teams
  • Strong understanding of short-form content performance
  • Proven track record improving team output and efficiency
  • Excellent communication and leadership skills

How We Pay

Base: $50k/annually

Performance-Based Upside:

We reward operators who build fast, efficient, high-performing teams.

Bonus Earnings:

  • You will earn bonuses based on Editors' efficiency + content performance. Earn up to $75k-80k/year.

(Full comp structure explained during interview process.)

How We Train & Filter

We do not hand this role out lightly.

You will go through a hands-on evaluation period:

  • Review and diagnose editor performance scenarios
  • Provide feedback on real edits
  • Show how you would improve systems and team output

Only those who meet our bar step into full ownership.
