Lifelong Mobility is the online coaching arm of one of the UK's largest healthy-ageing brands: 1.8 million-plus people follow our founder's physiotherapy content, and thousands of members over 50 trust us to help them stay strong and independent for life. We're small, profitable, and growing – which means the person we hire into this role has a genuine seat at the table and a clear path upward.

Our online program helps older adults regain their strength and mobility so they can keep doing the things they enjoy. If you're exceptional at what you do and align with our core values, we want to know you.

You’ll own our production pipeline. Our founder films; you turn that footage into finished You Tube videos and member trainings, edited end to end, to our house style, on schedule.

Your job is simple to describe and hard to do brilliantly:
keep high-quality videos shipping every week, with a healthy queue ready to go, so nothing depends on a last-minute scramble.

You'll also be part of how the channel grows. You'll work alongside the founder and our You Tube strategy team, bringing an editor’s eye to hooks, pacing and retention, and spotting what’s working on the platform right now.

That means you directly move the numbers that matter most to us: videos delivered on time, viewer retention, and a backlog of ready-to-publish content that keeps our publishing schedule rock solid.

This is a full-time, permanent, hybrid role, with a clear path to Senior Editor based on performance, not tenure.

• Edit You Tube long-form videos end to end, unsupervised, using our style guide and templates.
• Study our channel's analytics and retention graphs, and bring ideas on what to change in the edit.
• Edit member training videos for our members’ area, end to end.
• Own the shoot-to-publish system: footage ingest and logging, project organisation, scheduling and backlog management.
• Keep a minimum of two weeks of ready-to-publish content in the queue at all times.
• Short-form editing for You Tube Shorts, Instagram and Facebook (around a quarter of your week), briefed by our marketing assistant.
• Work within our AI-assisted editing workflows (transcript-driven cutting, automated clipping) and help us improve them.
• Apply our style guides, templates and feedback consistently across every edit.
• Communicate early and clearly about progress, blockers and realistic timelines.

• You’re a genuine You Tube nerd. You watch it constantly, study how top creators edit, and have opinions on hooks, pacing, retention and packaging. This is non-negotiable.
• 1–3+ years of editing experience, including long-form You Tube or educational content you've edited end to end.
• Confident in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve (tell us which), with solid audio clean-up skills.
• Strong sense of pacing for talking-head, demonstration and educational content.
• A portfolio with at least two long-form edits you owned from raw footage to final export, plus some short-form work.
• You can name the channels whose editing you study, and explain what makes them work.
• Highly organised and reliable: you hit deadlines, keep projects tidy, and flag problems before they become late deliveries.
• Comfortable with, and genuinely interested in, AI-assisted editing workflows.
• Coachable and growth-minded: you apply feedback once and it sticks.
• Comfortable working on a brand for adults aged 50+, with a respectful, non‑patronising tone.

You own outcomes like:

• A minimum of two weeks of ready-to-publish content, sustained.
• At…
