YouTube Video Editor & Producer
Company: BioEquity Insights
Location: London, remote

Right to work: Must have the right to work in the UK if full time

About BioEquity Insights
BioEquity Insights provides independent biotech deal review for early-stage investors. We help angels, syndicate leads, family offices, and venture investors turn complex science into clear investment decisions - through structured deal framing, independent domain expert input, and investment-focused written analysis.
As part of our client acquisition and thought leadership strategy, the founder publishes video content covering biotech investing, scientific diligence, drug development, and life sciences analysis. This content is designed to reach and build trust with the investor audience that BioEquity Insights serves - attracting qualified inbound interest for the consulting practice by demonstrating analytical depth and credibility on camera.
The Role
We are looking for a UK-based YouTube Video Editor & Producer to own the full video production pipeline for the YouTube channel. The target is daily video output across long-form and short-form formats.
This is primarily a video editing and production role. The majority of your time will be spent editing YouTube content to a high standard, with a strong focus on audience retention, engagement, channel growth, and attracting the right viewers: early-stage biotech investors and life sciences professionals.
Beyond editing, you will own the full packaging of each video - writing titles, descriptions, tags, and hashtags optimised for YouTube discovery and audience relevance. You will help identify what is resonating with this specific audience, suggest strong video concepts, and support the scripting process using AI tools.
The founder will remain heavily involved in scientific research, deal-level analysis, and on-camera delivery - this is not a research role - but the right person will contribute meaningfully by identifying content opportunities and supporting execution through AI-enabled workflows.
This is a full-time, one-month contract to start. If the working relationship and output quality are strong, the role will either extend or convert into a permanent position.
Key ResponsibilitiesVideo Editing & Post-Production (Primary Focus)
· Edit long-form YouTube videos with strong pacing, structure, clarity, and retention in mind
· Edit short-form videos for YouTube Shorts and other platforms
· Handle full post-production including colour grading, audio editing and mixing, sound design, noise reduction, and export optimisation for YouTube delivery
· Create polished, engaging content using captions, motion graphics, overlays, stock footage, charts, callouts, and visual storytelling techniques
· Shape content to maximise watch time, engagement, and conversion of viewers into consulting prospects
· Deliver a consistent visual style that reflects the company's positioning: professional, credible, analytical, and modern - the standard expected by sophisticated investors
· Sustain a high-volume editing cadence - the target is daily video output
Video Packaging & YouTube Optimisation
· Write compelling video titles optimised for click-through rate and YouTube search discovery
· Write video descriptions with relevant keywords, timestamps, and calls to action
· Select and apply appropriate tags and hashtags for each video to maximise discoverability within the target audience
· Support thumbnail concepts and visual hooks that drive clicks from the right viewers
· Monitor video performance data and refine packaging strategies based on what is working
Channel Production & Operations
· Manage the upload calendar and ensure consistent daily publishing
· Schedule and publish videos, including metadata, end screens, and cards
· Organise project files, assets, and templates for efficient production
· Coordinate with the founder on filming schedules and content pipeline
Growth & Audience-Focused Content Support
· Track what is trending within the biotech investor audience specifically, not just what is broadly trending online
· Identify topics, formats, and hooks likely to attract early-stage investors, syndicate leads, family office allocators, and biotech founders
· Analyse which content themes build audience trust and generate inbound interest for the BioEquity Insights consulting practice
· Suggest video ideas based on audience relevance, performance logic, and alignment with the company's consulting positioning
Script & Content Development Support
· Support the conversion of video ideas into structured scripts and outlines
· Use AI tools to assist with ideation, summarisation, drafting, and restructuring
· Collaborate with the founder, who provides the scientific research, deal-level insight, and on-camera presence
· Help package complex biotech and investment concepts into compelling long-form and short-form video formats
AI Workflow & Production Efficiency
· Integrate AI tools into daily workflow across editing, ideation, scripting, and production to improve speed, quality, and consistency
· Be comfortable experimenting with and adopting new AI-assisted systems rather than relying only on manual workflows
· Use judgement to get practical results quickly, even without being a deep specialist in every tool
Required Qualifications
· Fluent English, with strong written and spoken communication
· Strong video editing ability for both long-form and short-form content, including colour grading, audio editing, and sound design
· Proficiency with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or equivalent
· Good understanding of YouTube editing for retention, engagement, and growth
· Experience writing video titles, descriptions, and tags optimised for YouTube search and discovery
· Ability to recognise what content is likely to resonate with a specific professional audience - in this case, biotech investors and life sciences professionals
· Comfort working with scientific, medical, biotech, and investment-related subject matter
· Strong working knowledge of AI tools and AI-assisted workflows
· Ability to work independently, move quickly, and maintain high quality under a daily output cadence
Preferred / Nice to Have
· A university degree in a scientific field, especially life sciences, biotechnology, biomedical sciences, pharmacology, or similar
· Experience editing content in science, biotech, medical, investing, or educational media
· Familiarity with YouTube strategy, audience retention, title/hook logic, and content packaging
· Ability to create thumbnail concepts, visual explainers, simple motion graphics, or presentation-style content
· Experience turning complex technical or financial topics into accessible video content
· Familiarity with YouTube Analytics and data-driven content decisions
What You'll Get
· Direct collaboration with the founder from day one
· The opportunity to shape a YouTube channel from early stage - building the visual identity, editorial rhythm, and packaging strategy alongside the person on camera
· Deep exposure to biotech deal analysis, life sciences investment, and scientific diligence
· A clear path from initial contract to a permanent role based on performance

· Your CV
· A short note on why you are a fit for this role
· Examples of both long-form and short-form edited videos
