Full Job Description

WHO WE ARE The PR industry hasn't really changed in fifty years. Relationships, lunches, luck, and a clip report at the end of the month. Interdependence is rebuilding it from the ground up. Interviewed, our proprietary platform, analyzes 300,000+ stories every day across a network of 250,000 journalists. We turn earned media into something measurable, repeatable, and worth paying for — and apply the same data and discipline across paid, social, content, and brand. Integrated marketing run by one team, on one system, accountable to one result. Forbes named us one of America's Best PR Agencies. Our 100+ person team works with brands, CMOs, founders, and entrepreneurs across consumer, healthcare, tech, B2B, travel and entertainment. We move fast. The best argument wins. We hire for sharp thinking, real craft, and ownership from day one. If you want comfortable, this isn't the place. If you want to win, build with us. THE ROLE We are searching for a YouTube Editor operating at the highest caliber: someone who blends inventive thinking with precise execution, understands what drives culture forward, and knows how to shape footage into content that wins in today’s algorithm and tomorrow’s attention economy. This role demands elite editorial instincts, exceptional storytelling craft, and a deep command of what performs on YouTube right now. You will transform raw material into standout videos, elevate narratives through pacing and structure, and deliver edits that cut through in a landscape where only the most exceptional work rises.
