The Linchpin Co. is a people operations group offering custom recruitment and consulting services. At Linchpin, we know a company's most valuable resource is its people, and we are people experts!

We will be the point of contact between you and Mrs. Dow Jones (MDJ) during the recruitment process, acting as your trusted advisor and coach. We look forward to your interest.

**Mrs. Dow Jones (MDJ) ** is looking for a highly skilled and culturally savvy **Video Editor ** to join our fast-paced, social-first content team. This role is perfect for someone who understands the nuances of pop culture & finance, and thrives in an environment where priorities can shift overnight.

You’ll be responsible for editing high-volume short-form video content across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, ensuring every piece is on-brand, engaging, and optimized for platform-specific performance. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, lightning-fast with edits, and fluent in both the technical and cultural aspects of content creation. Bonus if the candidate can support in capturing content — expertise in cameras, composition, lighting, etc.

You will work very closely with Haley and a Digital Manager. You will engage regularly with her COO, manager, and other contract team members, and regularly collaborate with brand partners.

**RESPONSIBILITIES **

**KEY DELIVERABLES **

• 6x short-form videos/week for Instagram, with tailored exports for TikTok, YouTube, and X

• Color grading and audio polishing for each video

**CONTENT **

• Edit multiple short-form videos per week with speed and precision

• Create (and follow existing) series concepts

• Implement MDJ’s brand identity through motion graphics, text overlays, memes, music selection, and pacing — maintaining consistency while expanding creatively when appropriate

• Incorporate trending pop culture references, celebrity moments, and entertainment cues when appropriate; select strong backgrounds with thoughtful composition

• Stay up to date on editing trends and platform best practices, evolving style as needed

**CONTENT STRATEGY & OPTIMIZATION **

• Edit with performance metrics in mind (watch time, shares, saves, CTR)

• Place strong emphasis on high-impact hooks (first few seconds), thumbnails, and retention techniques

• Suggest creative concepts based on content performance without waiting for direction

• Follow and implement strict brand partner guidelines, including legal disclaimers and brand usage rules

**WORKFLOW & EFFICIENCY **

• Manage a structured content pipeline, handling multiple projects simultaneously without bottlenecks

• Balance “evergreen” and “as-it-happens” content with equal efficiency

• Respond positively to multiple rounds of feedback from both the MDJ team and external partners

**REQUIREMENTS **

• 2–3+ years of experience editing for social-first brands or personalities

• Willingness and enthusiasm to explore AI tools to streamline the editing process

• Mastery of Adobe Premiere Pro (or equivalent), Photoshop, and After Effects (or Canva motion tools where relevant)

• Proven track record of producing engaging, high-performing content for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube

• Ability to follow and expand on brand guidelines without losing creative flair

• Strong understanding of pop culture, entertainment news, and social trends

• Experience sourcing and clearing media assets (images, footage, music)

• Exceptional organizational skills — able to juggle multiple edits without sacrificing quality

• Comfortable working in a remote, fast-paced, deadline-driven environment
