About
We’re looking for a talented YouTube thumbnail editor to join our team on a long-term basis. This isn’t just about making pretty graphics, we want someone who understands the psychology behind clicks and the science of why certain thumbnails perform better than others. If you love analyzing what works, reverse-engineering successful thumbnails, and creating designs that grab attention in an instant, this role is for you. What We’re Looking For: - Reliable and professional, you deliver on time, every time. - Quick to respond and communicative, especially on deadlines. - Fantastic written and spoken English to ensure smooth collaboration. - Proven experience creating high-performing thumbnails for larger YouTube channels. - A strong grasp of visual psychology, curiosity gaps, and storytelling through imagery. - Someone who enjoys studying trends, competitor thumbnails, and figuring out why certain designs go viral. - Reliability and consistency — this is a long-term partnership, not a one-off project. - Strong communication and ability to deliver on deadlines. - Familiarity with YouTube analytics and A/B testing. - Understanding of niche/industry trends in thumbnail design. What You’ll Do: - Design compelling, high-quality thumbnails that stand out in the feed. - Research and analyze competitor thumbnails to reverse-engineer best practices. - Collaborate with our team to continuously improve click-through rates. - Deliver on a consistent schedule (weekly content publishing). To Apply: Please include: - A short intro about your experience with YouTube thumbnails. - Examples of thumbnails you’ve designed (ideally ones used on channels with proven results). - A quick breakdown of one thumbnail you think works really well, explain why. This is a long-term position with consistent work for the right person. We’re looking to build a reliable relationship with someone who’s passionate about YouTube growth and visual storytelling.
