About the role
Beast Industries is a multifaceted media and entertainment company founded by Jimmy Donaldson, popularly known as MrBeast, the most watched person in the world. Renowned for revolutionizing digital content creation, Beast Industries encompasses a diverse portfolio of ventures that extend far beyond its origins on YouTube. With a mission to entertain, inspire, and create significant social impact, Beast Industries operates across various domains including digital media, philanthropy, consumer products, and innovative business initiatives. At Beast Industries, we believe in the transformative power of digital media and its potential to entertain, educate, and effect positive change. Our commitment to innovation, creativity, and philanthropy drives us to explore new frontiers, create unforgettable experiences, and build a legacy that inspires future generations. 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.
Responsibilities
- 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
Requirements
- 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)
- Nice to Have's
- 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
- A Place to Call Home
- Our excellent affordability, geographic location, and natural resources, combined with cultural, economic, educational, and medical amenities make Greenville-Pitt County a preferred community to call home.
