Youtube Editor Jobs in Springfield, MO (NOW HIRING)

Video Content Creator & Social Media Manager

Paid Part-Time Trial With Opportunity to Become Full-Time

Primary Filming Location: Clever, Missouri

Ideal Candidate Location: Clever, Nixa, Springfield or surrounding Southwest Missouri areas

Starting Pay: $20–$30 per hour based on experience, portfolio and capabilities

Schedule: Approximately 15–25 hours per week to begin, with flexibility for filming and events

Growth Opportunity: Clear path into a full-time creative and digital marketing leadership position

We are looking for a highly driven video creator and social media professional who can take ownership of our content operation and run with it.

This is not a position where someone will stand over you, micromanage your schedule, or provide step-by-step instructions for every project.

We need someone who can understand the vision, build the plan, stay organized, execute consistently, and deliver exceptional work without needing constant reminders or follow-up.

The right person will know how to capture powerful moments, recognize compelling stories, create attention-grabbing content, and turn everyday business activity into videos people actually want to watch.

You will work directly with a fast-growing entrepreneur and a national insurance organization. Our company is expanding rapidly, and we want someone who is excited to take ownership, build something substantial, and eventually lead our entire content and digital marketing operation.

What You Will Own

You will be responsible for helping build and operate a consistent, high-performing content system.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Filming leadership meetings, training sessions, interviews, testimonials, events, and behind-the-scenes content
• Turning long-form footage into high-quality reels, short-form videos, and social media clips
• Editing longer YouTube videos, interviews, podcasts, and educational content
• Identifying the strongest moments in raw footage without waiting to be told what to use
• Writing or improving hooks, captions, titles, and calls to action
• Creating and maintaining a consistent content calendar
• Publishing and repurposing content across Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and LinkedIn
• Organizing footage, completed projects, and reusable creative assets
• Monitoring current content, platform, and editing trends
• Bringing new ideas, concepts, and growth opportunities to the table
• Tracking performance and using the data to improve future content
• Helping develop recruiting, branding, lead-generation, and retargeting campaigns
• Managing deadlines and deliverables without constant supervision

Candidates with experience running Meta ads, retargeting campaigns, custom audiences, pixels, funnels or digital advertising will receive additional consideration and may qualify for a faster path into a full-time position.

This Is an Ownership Role

We are not looking for someone who simply waits for assignments, checks boxes, or posts generic content.

We are looking for someone who takes initiative.

You should be able to review our business, audience, and goals to determine what needs to be filmed, what should be posted, which trends we should participate in, and how our content can continually improve.

You will be trusted to manage your responsibilities, stay on schedule, and communicate clearly.

That freedom comes with accountability.

We expect you to:

• Keep projects organized and moving forward
• Meet deadlines consistently
• Follow through on commitments
• Communicate early when something needs attention
• Maintain an accurate content calendar and production schedule
• Stay current on social media trends, formats, and platform changes
• Continually improve the quality and performance of your work
• Bring solutions and recommendations instead of waiting for instructions
• Produce content that supports measurable business growth

You will have creative freedom, direct access to leadership, and the opportunity to shape our brand's direction.

However, this position requires someone who can be trusted to perform at a high level without being micromanaged.

The Person We Are Looking For

You may be a talented college student, a recent graduate, a freelancer, or an experienced content professional. A degree is not required. Your portfolio, execution, attitude, and reliability matter more than credentials.

The ideal candidate is:

• Highly creative and self-motivated
• Operationally organized and dependable
• Comfortable taking ownership of projects
• Capable of managing multiple deadlines and priorities
• Skilled at short-form video editing and social media storytelling
• Able to recognize strong content opportunities in real time
• Current on social media, editing, and content trends
• Comfortable giving direction during filming
• Confident enough to bring new ideas and challenge weak concepts
• Interested in business, leadership, entrepreneurship, and personal development
• Able to accept feedback without becoming defensive
• Focused on results rather than simply completing tasks
• Available for regular filming in Clever, Missouri
• Located in or near Clever, Nixa, Springfield, or the surrounding area
• Equipped with reliable transportation

Experience with Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut or comparable editing software is preferred.

Experience with Meta Ads Manager, GoHighLevel, YouTube, TikTok, Canva, photography, podcast production, marketing analytics, or paid digital advertising is a major advantage.

How the Position Will Begin

The selected candidate will begin with a paid part-time trial period.

During that time, you will work on real projects and have the opportunity to demonstrate your:

• Creativity
• Editing ability
• Speed of execution
• Reliability
• Organization
• Communication
• Strategic thinking
• Ability to take ownership without constant supervision

This is not an unpaid internship.

If you consistently produce high-quality work, stay organized, and demonstrate your ability to help grow the brand, the position may expand in hours, responsibilities, and compensation.

A candidate who can ultimately manage both organic content and paid digital advertising may be offered a full-time position with significant long-term growth potential.
