Video Editor

We're looking for a creative, YouTube-obsessed Video Editor to join StudioB! If you know how to turn great footage into content people actually want to watch, understand what makes audiences click and stay engaged, and love creating videos that stand out, we want to hear from you.

Location: StudioB, Mill Hill, North West London

Contract: Fixed-term until 31 December 2026, with the potential to extend into 2027.

The Opportunity

StudioB is looking for a talented, hands-on Video Editor who understands YouTube inside out.

Your main focus will be editing engaging, high-quality YouTube content across both long-form videos and Shorts, helping us create content that captures attention, tells great stories and keeps audiences watching.

We're not looking for someone who simply cuts footage together. We want an editor who understands storytelling, pacing, retention and what makes content perform on YouTube.

You'll work closely with our creative and production teams, taking content from raw footage through to final delivery. You'll have the confidence to bring your own creative ideas, challenge edits and suggest ways to make content even better.

This is a fast-paced, creative environment where no two days are the same. You'll need to be comfortable working across different projects, managing deadlines and adapting your editing style to suit different audiences and formats.

The initial contract will run until the end of December 2026, with the potential to extend into 2027 depending on business and production requirements.

• Create compelling narratives that keep audiences watching from the opening hook through to the final frame.
• Understand the importance of pacing, structure, storytelling and audience retention.

• Stay on top of YouTube trends, editing techniques and emerging content formats.
• Bring fresh thinking to how we approach storytelling and content production.

Post-Production & Delivery

• Take ownership of edits from initial assembly through to final delivery.
• Manage multiple projects and deadlines without compromising on quality.
• Ensure all content meets StudioB's creative and technical standards.
• Organise project files, footage and assets to maintain efficient post-production workflows.
• Work with the production team to ensure content is delivered on time.

• Has a creative eye and a natural instinct for storytelling.

• Experience with Adobe After Effects, Photoshop or other post-production tools would be an advantage.
• An interest in AI-powered editing tools and emerging post-production technology would be welcomed.

Most importantly, we want to see examples of content you've edited for YouTube and understand your creative contribution to those projects.

What Success Looks Like

• YouTube content is engaging, well-paced and creatively strong.
• Long-form videos tell compelling stories and keep audiences watching.
• Shorts capture attention immediately and feel native to the platform.
• Projects are delivered on time and to a consistently high standard.
