IG / TikTok / YouTube Production Project Manager (Short-Form) $250–$450 USD/mo Fully Remote Async - Contract to Hire
I’m hiring a Project Manager to run the content production pipeline for my personal brand (sales, finance, education).
This role will start focused on short-form content for platforms like Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
You’ll manage 2–3 short-form posts per day from ideation to publishing by coordinating with editors, tracking deadlines, and keeping our workflow tight and organized.
If the relationship works well and the system runs smoothly, we will expand into long-form YouTube content, which will come with higher pay and more responsibility.
This is a fast-moving content operation with structured workflows and clear expectations. The work culture is relaxed as long as output, organization, and reliability are elite.
You won’t be expected to fully own analytics or ideation on day one. You will learn my content style, collaborate with me, and gradually take on more responsibility as you understand the system.
This role is fully remote and async, though we will likely have occasional overlap for communication.
What You’ll Own
Manage the daily production pipeline for short-form content
Track all videos from raw footage → edit → revisions → final export → posting
Coordinate with video editors on deadlines, revisions, and final delivery
Create and maintain clear edit briefs for each video
Organize content and assets in Drive / Frame.io or similar
Give first-round feedback on edits before I do final review
Ensure consistent posting cadence (2–3 videos per day)
Responsibilities
Maintain a clear production pipeline that prevents delays
Ensure editors always have footage, references, and clear instructions
Follow up on deadlines and revisions
Catch basic issues before final review:
caption mistakes
bad audio levels
missing b-roll
sloppy exports
Communicate proactively and keep everything organized.
Tools We Use
Slack (team communication)
Google Drive / Frame.io (assets & review)
ClickUp / Notion / similar task manager
Editors use Premiere Pro, After Effects, or CapCut
Requirements (Non-Negotiable)
Strong written English
Reliable communication and deadline management
Experience managing video production or content workflows
Comfortable working with remote editors
Basic understanding of video editing language:
pacing
captions
b-roll
sound design
hooks
Nice To Haves
Experience managing short-form content for creators
Familiar with TikTok / Instagram / YouTube Shorts workflows
Understanding of what makes viral short-form content
Experience working with remote editing teams
Hours and Schedule
Fully remote and async
Expected response time: within 12 hours on weekdays
Estimated workload: 10–20 hours per week to start
Compensation
$250–$500/month depending on experience and output
Potential to grow into long-form YouTube production management (higher pay)
Starting with a paid 1-month trial
Looking for someone long-term, not temporary.
