📢 CALL OUT: YouTube Editor (Wales/South West based)
Afanti Media are looking for a sharp, creative Editor for a brand new exciting YouTube format. Because of funding requirements, we need to ensure the majority of production spend is in Wales, so we’re especially keen to hear from Wales-based editors but we will also consider other regional editors (e.g. Bristol) if you’re the right fit!
📅 Dates, Rates & Location
The edit will take place in person in Cardiff on AVID during the first two weeks of February 2026, with three scheduled viewings built into the process, so some flexibility around those dates is required. You’ll be working directly in the edit suite with an Edit Producer throughout, and ideally we’re looking for one editor who can handle both the offline and online stages. Rate dependent on experience and in line with industry standards.
🎬 What We’re Looking For
Someone who:
* Ideally has experience cutting for YouTube / digital platforms but open to experienced editors in other entertainment based genres who are keen to make the leap into digital
* Can grab audiences in the first few seconds and keep them hooked, with a new twist every ~3 minutes to retain attention
* Is confident with fast-paced, dynamic edits and digital tropes: such as Quick zooms and Punchy pacing
* Can mock up quick, simple graphics (title cards, lower thirds, social-style captions etc.)
* Has some experience in creator-led / digital platform / fast-paced content
* Is collaborative and happy to work in-room with an Edit Producer
This is great experience for someone who wants to hone their craft in digital-first storytelling and build experience in YouTube-focused / digital landscape content cutting. The goal is for this project is to develop into a returning series, so we’re keen to find the perfect editor to grow with the project.
