Contract Script Editor (L&D Background) Video Scripts (REMOTE)

Company: NextGen Builders
Type: Remote Contract
Budget: $75$100 per script (40 scripts)

The Job

Were building a 50-lesson video academy for high-net-worth and ultra-high-net-worth parents and grandparents. The content teaches families how to raise financially capable self-directed kids rather than passive inheritors.

The scripts are written. Weve already edited 10 internally and need an editor to work through the remaining 40. Theres potential to extend into curriculum review after the scripts are complete.

What Youd Be Editing

40 video scripts (words each) written to camera and spoken directly to parents and grandparents. Each runs 79 minutes on screen. The scripts cover 5 topics with 10 scripts in each: money entrepreneurship investing mindset and family dynamics. 10 scripts have already been completed internally.

Potential contract extension: Editing curriculum materials for all 50 lessons (including the 40 lessons from the scripts already edited). Each lesson has activity guides conversation prompts and age-specific applications. If the script work goes well well discuss terms separately.

What Were Looking For

Select scripts will be written out and sent to you for review on the following:

1. Audience fit. Does the content speak directly to HNW/UHNW parents and grandparents These families manage significant wealth. Generic financial advice doesnt land with them and theyll notice when it shows up.
   
2. Every line earns its place. Each script and each sentence should add value. Cut the fluff but keep it personalized and conversational. These are spoken to camera not read off a page.
   
3. Smooth transitions. Sections should flow naturally. If a shift between ideas feels abrupt or forced flag it.
   
4. AI detection. Flag any language rhythm or phrasing that reads as AI-generated. If something sounds like a machine wrote it we need to know where and why.
   
5. Age-tier breakdowns. Each script includes lesson applications broken down by age tier. These need to be structured correctly for the age group actually applicable to kids at that stage and worth the time they take up in the script. Additional application activities will live in the curriculum separately.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit and proofread video scripts for clarity coherence and alignment with learning objectives.
• Provide feedback on content structure pacing and how effectively the script conveys complex ideas to a non-expert audience.
• Ensure consistency in tone and style across all 40 scripts while adhering to brand voice guidelines.
• Collaborate with our team and subject matter experts to align script content with each lessons intended outcomes.
• Conduct light research on relevant topics when needed to verify accuracy or strengthen depth.
• Facilitate revisions based on stakeholder feedback and improve final outputs accordingly.
• Maintain version control and organize files systematically so the team can access current drafts without confusion.
• Deliver edited scripts on a rolling basis within project timelines 20 scripts by June 29th remaining 20 on a schedule we agree on together.

Youre a Good Fit If

-Learning and development background. Youve built or reviewed training programs course content or instructional materials and you know when a lesson actually teaches something versus when it just covers a topic. Give you a learning objective and a script and you can tell us whether the content delivers on it. A strong understanding of instructional design principles and adult learning theories is expected.

-Video and spoken-word editing experience. E-learning modules corporate training videos instructor-led scripts. Written curriculum and on-camera delivery are two different animals and you edit accordingly. Familiarity with video production processes is a plus.

-Experience across a wide age range. The curriculum spans ages 5 through 25 and the activities need to land differently for a first-grader than for a college student. If youve developed materials that account for those developmental gaps youll know immediately when an activity is pitched wrong for its age group.

-Familiarity with high-performing audiences. Experience designing or editing learning experiences for executive-level or affluent audiences is a plus. Accomplished adults disengage fast when content feels entry-level or generic.

-AI detection instinct. Not because you run a detection tool but because something in the rhythm or the word choice feels off and you can name why.

-Detail-oriented and self-directed. Exceptional command of English sharp eye for grammar and style consistency and the ability to work independently and meet tight deadlines without compromising quality.

-Education and experience. Proven experience editing video scripts or educational materials preferably in an L&D context. Proficiency in editing and content creation tools.

-Available to start ASAP. We have a current target of 20 scripts edited by June 29th.
