Social Media Assistant / Video Editor

Bleacher Breaks is hiring an editor to work alongside our Social Media Manager. This is an
editing-first role: the majority of your week is short-form video editing and graphic work, at
volume, on a consistent turnaround.
Just as important as the technical work is the eye behind it. We generate a lot of raw footage —
live breaks, on-site content, original shoots — and much of the job is watching it and knowing
what's in there. Spotting the reaction, the pull, the moment that becomes the clip is a skill, and
it's the one we're weighting most heavily.
Beyond editing, you'll contribute across the rest of our content operation, and there's room to
grow into that side of it over time. But the core of the role is turning footage into finished
content, day in and day out.
What you'll be doing

Primary — editing

Cut short-form video for TikTok, Reels, and YouTube Shorts at consistent daily volume
Review raw break and event footage and pull the moments worth posting
Handle pacing, captions, sound design, and hooks — not just assembly
Build graphics, thumbnails, and static posts in Photoshop
Adapt and maintain existing templates so output stays on-brand
Manage your own project files, exports, and turnaround times
Supporting

Schedule and publish across platforms
Write captions and on-screen copy in our voice
Film on-site, on location, and around live breaks
Appear in original and trend-based content
Track weekly performance and note what's landing
Keep up with comments and engagementAs you grow into the role: scripting your own concepts, designing original graphics from scratch, and owning a recurring series.
What you'll bring

Required

Short-form editing

— Premiere Pro, CapCut, or comparable. You can work quickly without the quality dropping, and you understand why a cut lands where it does.
Photoshop

— comfortable building and editing graphics, thumbnails, and layered files
An eye for content

— you can watch raw footage and identify what's worth posting, and you can articulate why. You follow short-form closely enough to know what's performing right now and what's already tired.
Volume and consistency

— you can turn around multiple edits a day and hit deadlines without being chased
Also valuable

Filming — confident on phone or camera, with a feel for framing, lighting, and audio
On camera — comfortable appearing in content
Writing — captions and hooks that read naturally
Platform fluency across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube
Analytics — able to work in platform insights and explain what the numbers point to
Preferred

Interest in sports, and/or familiarity with the card and breaking world
Motion graphics experience (After Effects or similar)
A track record growing an account — professional, freelance, or your own
Your own camera gear (Sony, Canon, gimbal, mics, etc.)
Why this role

You’ll work directly with someone running the full content process every day, on an account with real volume and a real audience. If you want your editing reps — and a path into the broader content and strategy side — this is a seat that offers both.
