The Diary of a CEO is on a mission to create the most impactful conversations in the world.

We are looking to hire people who want to shape culture at scale. If you’re exceptional at your craft, obsessed with storytelling, and thrive in high-standards environments, we want to hear from you.

  • Maintain project files and workflows that are seamless, scalable, and production-ready.

WE’RE LOOKING FOR
  • Minimum 3+ years professional editing experience, with a portfolio of long-form multicam edits (podcasts, interviews, documentaries).

  • Advanced in Adobe Premiere Pro; comfortable with large multicam timelines, syncing, and file management.

  • Deep instinct for pacing, rhythm, and story structure in long-form content.

  • Understanding of retention curves and editing choices that maximise watch-time.

  • Exceptional attention to detail, organisation, and communication skills.

  • Growth mindset: proactive, solutions-oriented, and eager to experiment with new techniques.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE
  • Deliver long-form edits that consistently achieve high retention and millions of views.

  • Contribute to a publishing cadence that ensures episodes release seamlessly every week.

  • Elevate team standards by contributing workflows, systems, and creative direction.

  • Help The Diary of a CEO remain the global leader in long-form podcast storytelling
