Freelance Content Editor
Edit stories that feel like film. We’re building beautiful things — one frame at a time. Join us.
Role
Technically, you’re a freelance content editor. But titles aside — you’re a storyteller in the edit bay. A sequence whisperer. Someone who knows how to take raw footage and carve out rhythm, meaning, and moments that stick.
You’re not here to just “get it done.” You’re here to do work that feels like something. That earns attention. That adds value. You'll be working alongside our small creative crew to bring cinematic short-form content to life — quickly, creatively, and consistently.
Responsibilities
Edit short-form cinematic content for social, brand, and client use
Transform raw footage into tight, polished, emotionally resonant edits
Add transitions, motion, and sound design that enhances (never distracts)
Select the perfect music track from our Artlist account
Deliver on time, every time (5–7 day standard turnaround)
Collaborate via Slack and Frame.io — take feedback well, and act on it fast
Keep our editing workflows clean, structured, and export-ready
Requirements
Portfolio that proves you know how to cut with energy and feeling
Fluent in Adobe Premiere Pro (bonus if you use Lucid Link or Frame.io)
Excellent eye for pacing, hooks, and visual rhythm
Solid sound design instincts — the ear matters as much as the eye
Clear, concise communicator (Slack will be your best friend)
Available during the week, flexible for weekend overflow
Reliable, fast, and quality-focused — we don’t do sloppy
Expectations
Your edits meet or exceed the style + standard seen at salt-aircinema.com.au
You’re checking Slack daily for project updates
You’re not ghosting — this is collaborative, not transactional
You want creative feedback because you care about getting better
Working Structure
Freelance / pay-per-project to start

5–7 day turnaround per project

You’re proud of your work but not precious about feedback
