Photo & Video Editor + Social Media Manager (Long-Term)

We are a US creative marketing agency. We produce photo and video for established brands. We need one person to own two things end to end: editing our visual content, and running the social accounts it goes out on.

This is a long-term part-time role, 28 hours per week to start, with room to grow in both hours and pay as we add clients.

We train. We are not looking for someone who already knows our exact workflow. We are looking for someone with a real foundation who we can teach our way of doing things. Read the requirements carefully, because there are two different ways to qualify.

**The editing half
Cull and edit photo sets in Evoto and Photoshop. Consistent skin, color, and finish across a full gallery, not one great image and forty rough ones.
Cut short-form video from raw footage. We supply a .cube LUT for color. You apply it, match exposure across clips, add captions and music, export to spec.
Keep the asset library organized so nothing gets edited twice or lost.

**The social half
Own the content calendar. Plan what goes out, on which platform, on which day, and keep it full a week ahead rather than scrambling the morning of.
Write captions and hooks from our brand voice guide, then schedule everything through our platform for approval before it publishes.
Run daily engagement. Reply to comments and DMs in our voice, engage with accounts in our niche, and keep response times under 24 hours. This is daily work, not a weekly batch.
Flag every inquiry that looks like a real lead and route it to us the same day.
Send a short monthly report: what performed, what did not, and what you would make more of.

**Photo: what you need
Real Adobe Photoshop experience required. Not expert level, but you should be comfortable with layers, masks, and retouching without a tutorial open beside you. We will train you on Evoto and on our specific look.

**Video: two ways to qualify
Pick whichever describes you and say so in your application.

Path A, our preference. You have an Apple computer that can run Final Cut Pro, and you have real video editing experience in something, whether that is Premiere, Resolve, CapCut, or Final Cut itself. We will train you on Final Cut and our workflow, and we cover the Final Cut subscription. You do not need to own it already.
Path B. You are genuinely proficient in DaVinci Resolve and can take raw footage to a finished, delivered piece on your own: assembly, LUT applied, exposure matched across clips, captions, audio, export to spec. No hand-holding needed.

Either path works for us. What does not work is neither. If you have never edited video, this is not the role.

**Everything else you need
A portfolio we can watch and look at, with work you edited yourself
Real experience running a business or brand social account. Tell us which accounts and what you did
Written English strong enough that your comments and captions read as native to a US audience. This is not negotiable for the engagement half of the role
Stable internet and 4 hours of overlap with US Eastern time
Judgment about when to answer and when to escalate. We will give you a response playbook, and you will tell us when something falls outside it
You reply within one business day and tell us early when something will be late

**Nice to have
Final Cut Pro experience already, which puts you at the front of the line
Evoto experience
Go High Level, Later, Metricool, or another scheduling platform
Experience following a brand voice guide rather than writing however you like
Hashtag, trend, and competitor research
Photography or videography of your own

**Pay and process
$6 to 7 per hour for 28 hours per week, negotiable based on experience. Paid bi-weekly via Wise
Pay and hours are reviewed at 30 and 90 days based on actual output.
We reimburse your Photoshop subscription, cover Final Cut Pro if you are on Path A, and supply Evoto access
Shortlisted candidates complete a short paid test project. We do not ask anyone to work for free

**How to apply**
Start your message with the word SLATE so we know you read this. Then send:

A link to your portfolio, with at least one full photo gallery and two short-form videos you edited yourself
A link to one business or brand social account you have managed, and what you were responsible for on it
Path A or Path B? If A, tell us which Apple computer you have and what video software you have used. If B, tell us how long you have used Resolve and link one piece you took from raw footage to final export
Which software you use for photo, and how you handle color consistency across a shoot
Your hours of availability in US Eastern time

Applications without the word SLATE will not be read.
