Short-form video editor: Giving Charity - Volunteer

EveryDrop is a brand-new charity turning everyday giving into a calm daily habit. We're after someone who loves making Instagram Reels and short-form video to help tell our story as we launch. You bring the craft; we bring the briefs, footage and charity stories. Fully remote, flexible hours.<br><br>What difference will you make?<br><br>EveryDrop exists to make effective, everyday giving a daily habit — letting people give small amounts to carefully vetted charities and actually see the impact they're having, without guilt or pressure. The more people we reach, the more consistent giving we help create for high-impact causes.<br><br>As a brand-new charity, our launch will live or die on organic short-form video. It's how people will first discover us, understand what we do, and decide to give it a try. That makes this role genuinely pivotal your Reels will be the very first impression thousands of people have of EveryDrop, and they'll directly shape how many people start giving through the app — and, in turn, how much reaches the charities we support.<br><br>Because we're right at the start, you'd also help define our visual voice from day one. The style and tone you help establish won't be a one-off campaign; it'll become the template we reuse again and again as we grow. We want to empower you to take real creative ownership — the chance to shape how a whole organisation shows up in the world, and to see a direct line from your work to real donations for effective causes.<br><br>For someone who wants their video skills to do more than sell products, this is a way to put that craft directly behind everyday generosity.<br><br>What are we looking for?<br><br>The single most important thing is a strong instinct for short-form video — the ability to take raw material and turn it into something with a hook, good pacing, and captions that hold attention. If you've made Reels, TikToks or similar before, a link to your work or a couple of examples tells us far more than a CV.<br><br>Our ideal volunteer would have<br><br><ul><li>Demonstrable short-form video experience — a portfolio, a Reels/TikTok account, or a few clips you're proud of. This matters most.</li><li>Confidence with an editing tool of your choice — CapCut, Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, or whatever you work fastest in. We're not precious about which.</li><li>A feel for warm, honest storytelling — we're "calm, not clickbait", so we're looking for someone who can be engaging without being preachy or salesy.</li><li>Reliability and self-direction — you'd be working remotely from light briefs, so being comfortable managing your own time and turning things around to gentle deadlines is key.<br><br></li></ul>Nice to have, but not essential motion graphics, sound design, or hands-on experience growing a social account.<br><br>What you don't need to devise our marketing strategy, write long-form copy, or commit to fixed hours. We handle the direction; you bring the craft. Enthusiasm for the mission — making everyday giving a habit — counts for a lot, and we're happy to start with a single trial piece so it's an easy, low-pressure way to see if it's a fit.<br><br>Remote<br><br>What will you be doing?<br><br>EveryDrop is a Scottish charity (SCIO) https // launching a micro-donation app that makes daily giving to vetted, high-impact charities simple and genuinely enjoyable. As a brand-new organisation preparing to launch, almost all of our early reach will come from organic short-form video — and that's where you'd come in.<br><br>We're looking for someone who loves making Reels and TikTok-style video to help bring our story to life. You'd work from short briefs and source material we provide (footage, charity stories, brand assets), so you don't need to devise the strategy — just bring the editing craft that makes a clip land.<br><br>Your main tasks would be<br><br><ul><li>Turning our ideas, footage and charity stories into punchy 15–45 second Reels for Instagram and TikTok.</li><li>Editing with captions, text overlays, pacing and music suited to each platform.</li><li>Adapting a single piece of content into a few variants where useful (Reels, Stories, LinkedIn).</li><li>Helping shape a simple, repeatable content style we can keep using after launch.<br><br></li></ul>We're a small, friendly team that works mostly evenings and weekends, so we're relaxed about when you do the work. The role is fully remote and flexible — roughly 2–4 hours a week, with a bit more energy around our September launch. It's ongoing, but we're very happy to start with a single trial piece so you can see if you enjoy it.<br><br>If you'd like to apply, it helps to share a link or a couple of examples of short-form video you've made.
