So I run a YouTube channel which is growing at a quick pace. We do long-form documentaries on historical crime.
It’s not AI slop, I’m the voice and the face of channel and I’ve made the decision to transition to weekly content, but now I need some help.
I have a team of freelancers : 3 video editors 1 x maps editor 1 x thumbnail designer 1 x researcher 1 x scriptwriter 1 x Intro & On-Camera Video Editor 1 x Personal Assistant 1 x Audio Editor And myself who works full time on the channel.
I am now looking for a production assistant to work alongside me. I have around 25 hours of work per week at the moment but as you learn my level of quality control and I can trust you more, that will be around 40 hours a week within a few months.
Your daily tasks will be working with me closely and helping me with the following (making sure it’s of the same quality that I’d do if I was doing the task myself):
-Finding photos for the maps editor to use -Once overing the edited voiceovers from the audio editor to ensure pacing is right and there are no mistakes or mispronunciations -Go through the map pack before we send it to the maps editor and gather my thoughts for how I see each map, delivering that to the maps editor to ensure he understands -Doing revisions on the maps we receive back to make sure they’re up to my standard (I will teach you on this) -Once the on-camera/talking head is filmed, match the audio with the video, colour grade the video and send it to the right editor -Prepare editing packs for the editors in google drive -Once over on-camera footage to ensure that it’s up to my standard -Prepare research packs for the scriptwriter. This is a 10-15 hour task where you’ll be digging through archives and books putting a story together. I will also work on you with this -Going through the scripts before I record them and delivering me a list of words I might not be able to pronounce
So I appreciate it’s quite a large list, but I’m running almost like a small media company here and I’m wanting someone to work alongside me closely and learn my standards as they’re quite high.

1. ⁠I’ll need you to be okay with WhatsApp as the main communication with me and my freelancers.
2. ⁠I want someone who’s got perfect English and also some experience in YouTube/production
3. ⁠Need someone who is looking for full time work as although it’s only 25-30 hours at first it’ll be 40+ hours in a few weeks/months
4. ⁠I want someone good who’s going to make my life easier, which is why I’m paying $10 an hour, but I’ll pay more if you warrant it. I just really need someone with high standards who has a can do attitude and will work with me closely

Really looking forward to hearing from you and hearing your relevant experience!
