Video Editor

We're an e-commerce brand that grows through paid social. Every week we put a high volume of new video ads in front of cold traffic on Meta and TikTok, and the edit decides whether someone stops scrolling or keeps going.

We're looking for a video editor who cares about performance as much as polish. If you watch ads for fun, think in hooks and retention, and want to see real numbers on your work within days, this is the role for you.

Scroll Stopper

You'll turn scripts, raw UGC and product footage into ads built to win the first three seconds and hold attention to the call to action. You'll work directly with our copywriters and media buyers, and you'll see how every edit performs, usually within 48 hours.

This is not cinematic brand film work. It's fast, native-feeling, direct response editing, where a caption style or a one-second hook swap can double the results. We want someone who finds that exciting.

• 1+ years editing short-form video, ideally paid ads for e-commerce or info products
• Fluent in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut. After Effects basics are a plus
• A portfolio of real ads, UGC edits or short-form content you can link to
• Understands hooks, pacing, pattern interrupts, captions and sound design for a sound-off feed
• Comfortable with volume: 15–25 finished ads per week, including variations
• Good English comprehension. Scripts, briefs and feedback are all in English
• Organised. Clean project files, clear naming, nothing lost
• Uses AI tools (voice, b-roll, upscaling) where they save time without looking fake
• Takes feedback well and turns revisions around fast
• Reliable machine and internet connection

Edit Ads That Stop The Scroll

The first three seconds are the job.

You'll cut UGC, founder videos, product demos and VSL-style ads in vertical and square formats, native to each platform. Tight pacing, clean captions, sound that lands even on mute.

Iterate On Winners

One winning ad becomes ten.

When something works, you'll produce variations fast: new hooks, new first frames, different lengths, different captions. Most of our scale comes from iteration, so speed and consistency matter as much as creativity.

Work From The Script

Copy and edit are one team.

You'll work from our copywriters' scripts and briefs, and push back when the footage tells a better story. The best ideas win, wherever they come from.

Edit new video ads every week from scripts, raw creator footage and product b-roll.

Produce hook and format variations of winning ads for ongoing testing.

Join the creative review with copywriters and media buyers twice a week to look at what won, what lost, and why.

Keep the footage library, project files and export naming organised so anyone can find anything.

Keep studying what's working in the feed: new formats, caption styles, transitions and AI tools.

• Fixed monthly pay in USD, $X,XXX – $X,XXX depending on experience, paid on time, every time
• Performance bonuses when your edits become winning ads
• 100% remote. Work from anywhere, with 4 hours overlap with [TIMEZONE]
• Fast feedback. You'll see real performance data on your work within days
• Direct access to the founder, copywriters and media buyers. No layers
• A path up. Senior editor, then creative lead, as the team grows

• You want a normal 9-5 where nobody checks how your work performs. Every edit gets tested, and the whole team sees the results.
• You only want to make cinematic brand films. We respect the craft. It's not this job.
• You're married to your edits or take revision notes personally.
• You want a side gig next to five other clients. This is a full-time, all-in role.
• You can't handle volume and deadlines.

About 10 minutes. A few questions and links to your best work.

One real ad from our footage and script, paid at a fair rate whether or not we end up working together.

A call with the founder. We talk through your edit, your process and how you work.

Full pay, real work, real data. If it's a fit for both sides, we make it permanent.

We review applications every week. To show us you read this far, start your answer to the first question with the word HOOK.
