# YT Jobs YT Jobs is a niche job board designed specifically for the YouTube creator ecosystem. It connects YouTube creators with behind-the-scenes talent such as video editors, thumbnail designers, scriptwriters, and strategists. ## What it does The platform acts as a matchmaking service between YouTube creators who need help scaling their channels and skilled professionals who understand the specific demands of YouTube content production. Unlike general freelancing platforms, YT Jobs filters for candidates who understand YouTube culture, retention strategies, and pacing. ## Key features - **Portfolio-based filtering**: Applicants must demonstrate relevant YouTube experience (historically requiring at least 6 videos in their portfolio) - **YouTube-specific job specs**: Creators can specify video style (documentary, gaming, vlog, talking head), required software (Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects), language, and time zone - **Zero commission**: Unlike Upwork (10%) or Fiverr (20%), YT Jobs takes no cut. It functions as an introduction service; billing and contracts happen directly between creator and talent - **Pricing**: Single job posts cost around $149 (active for 30 days), positioning it as a premium, curated board rather than a mass marketplace ## Background Co-founded by Paddy Galloway, a YouTube strategist who has worked with creators like MrBeast and Sidemen. The platform was built to solve the problem that general freelancers often lack the domain knowledge needed for YouTube-specific work. ## Why it matters The creator economy increasingly requires specialized talent pipelines. General job boards and freelancing platforms fail to filter for the niche skills YouTube creators need. YT Jobs fills that gap by creating a dedicated marketplace where both sides speak the same language. ## References - https://ytjobs.co/ ## Related -
