YouTube Designer & Channel Assistant

We are seeking a creative, highly organized YouTube Designer & Channel Assistant to become the operational and visual backbone of a growing gaming-focused YouTube channel. This unique role bridges the gap between high-impact graphic design and meticulous channel administration.

Your primary mission is to capture viewer attention in the split second they scroll past a video by designing high-performing, high-CTR (Click-Through Rate) thumbnails. When you aren't designing, you will be managing the channel's day-to-day operations—handling uploads, optimization, email correspondence, and workflow organization.

Part-time: 20 hours per week
Niche: Gaming Content & Culture
Remote: Fully remote, AEDT working hours
Engagement Type: Independent Contractor
Monthly Rate: $400-550 (based on a 20-hour workweek; flexible depending on experience)

What You'll Be Doing:

• Thumbnail Design & CTR Optimization:
  • Design highly engaging, scroll-stopping YouTube thumbnails that directly improve click-through rates.
  • Adapt visual styles based on trending gaming topics, memes, and analytics.
• Light Branding & Identity:
  • Maintain a cohesive visual identity across the entire channel.
  • Create matching banners, avatar graphics, stream overlays, or promotional social templates to ensure the brand feels premium and unified.
• Channel Management & Upload Operations:
  • Manage the end-to-end upload workflow: add optimized titles, descriptions, tags, metadata, and end screens.
  • Schedule video releases and maintain an organized content library.
• Administrative & Email Support:
  • Monitor and manage the channel's public/business inbox, responding to inquiries and filtering opportunities professionally.
• Multimedia & Content Support:
  • Assist with preparing short-form content, pulling highlights, compiling clips, or making minor video adjustments.

Who You Are:

• 3+ years of experience working with YouTube operations and/or thumbnail designing
• Exceptional graphic design skills with a specific portfolio demonstrating YouTube thumbnails, gaming graphics, or high-impact social media visuals.
• A strong instinct for what makes a viewer click—mastery of contrast, focal points, and expression placement.
• Hands-on experience with DaVinci Resolve is an important tool to have for video management, clip rendering, or asset adjustments.
• Proficiency in Photoshop, Canva, or Illustrator.
• Excellent written and spoken English skills for handling business emails and audience interactions.
• High level of administrative discipline; you don't let emails slide, or metadata get sloppy.

• Experience developing style guides, banners, or cohesive brand assets for digital creators.
• Deep familiarity with gaming trends, popular creators, memes, and current gaming culture.
• Experience with basic video editing tools like CapCut or Premiere Pro.
• Understanding of algorithm optimization, keywords, and metadata formatting.
