Our client, an innovative coaching business specializing in neuro-coaching for families and partners of autistic individuals, is looking for a Social Media Assistant & Content Editor . In this role, you will seamlessly bridge the gap between multimedia content creation and active social media management. We are seeking candidates proficient in video and audio editing software tailored for podcast production, audiograms, and short-form video formats like Reels, Shorts, and TikTok. A strong candidate will demonstrate proactive communication to ensure key deliverables are consistently met. Candidates must provide a portfolio showcasing past podcast/video editing work, short-form clips, and social media channels managed.

Responsibilities:

• Content Repurposing: Identify and extract 3–5 high-quality short vertical clips from each long-form podcast episode for Reels, Shorts, and TikTok, with captions. Minimal editing/polishing may also be required for an additional 2–3 raw videos provided directly by the coach.
