Who We Are

Market Leaders is on a mission to become a world-renowned coaching and marketing education brand by 2031. With Asian roots and global reach, we bring a "Bruce Lee approach" to business education—combining Eastern wisdom with world-class execution.

Our culture? Peaceful & Profitable. We believe in high performance without toxic hustle, building a remote team that wins together and celebrates together.

We're a tight-knit team of 7 scaling globally, and we need a strategic video editor who understands that great content isn't just pretty—it drives results.

The Opportunity

You'll be our Short-form Video Storyteller—the person who turns our ideas into scroll-stopping content that educates, inspires, and spreads our mission across TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

This isn't a cookie-cutter editing gig. You'll produce 30 high-quality videos per month while collaborating directly with our Co-founders (Bryan Ang, CMO + Melvin Soh, Head of Creatives) and Content Manager to shape our viral strategy.

If you've ever studied why Alex Hormozi's cuts hit different, why GaryVee's pacing keeps you hooked, or how Ken Honda makes money mindset feel warm—you'll thrive here.

This role is for someone who:

Sees editing as strategy, not just technical execution
Obsesses over the first 3 seconds (because retention is everything)
Can balance high volume (30/month) with world-class quality
Wants to build something meaningful, not just collect a paycheck

What You'll Do

Video Production & Editing (Your Craft)

- Produce short-form videos monthly across TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts
- Execute seamless transitions, motion graphics, and effects that enhance (not distract from) the message
- Ensure every frame reflects Market Leaders' brand—consistent, professional, globally excellent

Viral Strategy & Hook Creation (Your Edge)

- Analyze trending formats weekly and adapt them for business education content
- Create scroll-stopping hooks that grab attention in under 3 seconds
- A/B test thumbnails, captions, pacing, and video structures to optimize performance

Content Optimization (Your Systems)

- Repurpose long-form content (webinars, podcasts, interviews) into snackable short-form gold
- Optimize videos for platform-specific algorithms (what works on TikTok ? Reels ? Shorts)
- Add captions, subtitles, and accessibility features (because inclusive content wins)

Creative Collaboration (Your Team Play)
- Work closely with Content Manager on content calendar and briefs
- Align with Melvin (Head of Creatives) on brand aesthetics and iteration
- Implement Bryan's strategic direction while contributing your creative insights
- Balance input from multiple stakeholders without ego or drama

Performance-Driven Iteration (Your Growth)
- Track what's working (and what's not) based on retention, engagement, and feedback
- Document best practices and create repeatable systems for efficiency
- Stay ahead of platform updates, algorithm changes, and viral trends

What You Bring

Must-Haves (Non-Negotiable)
- Experience & Portfolio
- 2+ years editing short-form content (TikTok/Reels/Shorts specifically—not just YouTube)
- Portfolio with links to your work (show us the videos, the data, the results)
- Proven ability to produce high volume without sacrificing quality (show us you've hit 20-30+ videos/month before)
- Experience in business/education content (coaches, thought leaders, marketing education—not just lifestyle/entertainment)

Technical Skills
- Mastery of video editing software (CapCut, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve—quality matters more than the tool)
- Motion graphics basics (text animations, kinetic typography, smooth transitions)
- Color grading, audio mixing, and pacing that keeps viewers locked in
- Thumbnail design skills (Canva, Photoshop, or similar)

Strategic Mindset
- Deep understanding of TikTok/Reels/Shorts algorithms (you know why some videos explode and others flop)
- Trend-spotting ability—you're on the platforms daily, studying what's working NOW
- Hook psychology—you understand the first 3 seconds make or break retention
- Storytelling in 15-60 seconds—you can compress complex ideas into punchy, engaging narratives

Work Ethic & Execution
- Deadline-driven
- Detail-obsessed—you catch the 0.5-second timing issues others miss
- Organized—asset management, version control, and file naming are second nature
- Self-directed—you don't need hand-holding but know when to ask questions

Cultural Alignment
- You listen first, then take initiative—balancing autonomy with collaboration
- You handle feedback without ego—iteration makes work better, not personal
- You communicate proactively (especially in async remote work)—no surprises, no ghosting
- You understand Asian cultural context + global business education—you can make Ken Honda's philosophy feel as accessible as Gary Vee's energy

Nice-to-Haves (Bonus Points)
- 2D animation skills (moderate complexity—makes you a creative swiss army knife)
- 3D motion graphics (rare unicorn skill—instant standout)
- Copywriting ability (you can punch up captions and hooks)
- Filming/camera work (self-shooting content is a plus)
- Analytics mindset (you track CTR, retention rates, and iterate based on data)
- Agency experience (you're used to client feedback and fast turnarounds)
- Previous work with coaches, educators, or marketing thought leaders (you already speak the language)
