Video Editor - International

At SelfPublishing.com, we help people turn their ideas into bestselling books — and their books into movements that change lives.

We’ve helped thousands of authors publish, launch, and grow their impact — reaching millions of readers worldwide. Now, we’re looking for a Video Editor to help us amplify that impact even further by driving high-intent traffic, boosting conversions, and helping more authors find us when they need us most.

This isn’t just about ranking for keywords.

It’s about creating content that moves people — that inspires action, earns trust, and helps real writers make their dream of publishing a reality.

If you’re part data nerd, part storyteller, and totally obsessed with growth — this might be your dream role.
