MrBeast is looking for a well-rounded Video Editor who can do more than just cut footage. In this role, you’ll transform raw recordings into high-energy, captivating content that keeps viewers engaged from start to finish. Beyond traditional editing, you’ll also bring projects to life with motion graphics, After Effects work, and lighter CGI techniques (rotoscoping, compositing, animation).
This is a highly creative position that requires someone with a YouTube-native style — quick, punchy edits, bold motion graphics, and a strong sense of pacing and retention. You’ll collaborate closely with our editing team to refine storylines, experiment with effects, and ensure every video is as entertaining as it is polished.
- Editing and assembling 30m–1hr+ recordings into highly engaging short-form or long-form content
- Using Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects to create high-quality edits with motion graphics, rotoscoping, and lighter CGI work
- Adding creative flair: animations, transitions, music, and sound design to enhance the viewing experience
- Collaborating with retention specialists and creative leads to optimize content pacing and viewer engagement
- Working alongside other editors to share techniques, improve workflows, and maintain consistent quality
- Delivering drafts on time, ideally ahead of deadlines, and iterating quickly based on feedback
- Expert-level knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects (non-negotiable)
- Strong experience with motion graphics, rotoscoping, and basic compositing techniques
- Ability to craft edits for YouTube-style content (fast-paced, high-retention, cinematic when needed)
- Highly accountable and reliable, consistently hitting or exceeding deadlines
- Open to feedback, and able to incorporate notes quickly and effectively
- A passion for storytelling, creativity, and experimenting with new techniques
- A demo reel that showcases editing speed, motion graphics, and stylistic variety (applications without reels may not be considered)
- Experience with Blender or other 3D tools (not required, but a plus)
- Exposure to Nuke or higher-level CGI software (bonus, not expected)
- Strong sense of cinematic storytelling (music, sound design, drama pacing)
- Prior work with creators or influencers on highly stylized, fast-paced YouTube content
