Video Editor About the Role

We’re looking for a talented Video Editor who can turn raw creator footage into engaging, fast-moving social media ads that feel natural, authentic, and believable.

You’ll be responsible for taking existing creator footage and transforming it into compelling short-form content that captures attention quickly, communicates the product clearly, and keeps the creator’s personality intact.

This role is ideal for someone who understands that great performance creative doesn’t necessarily mean highly polished editing. The best edits should feel native, relatable, and organic, while still being strategically structured to drive engagement and action.

Key Responsibilities Edit raw creator and UGC footage into engaging 20–45 second social ads Develop strong, attention-grabbing opening hooks Improve pacing, structure, clarity, and overall storytelling Maintain the creator’s natural voice, personality, and delivery Make content feel authentic rather than overly produced or polished Identify the strongest clips, soundbites, and moments within raw footage Use captions, cuts, B-roll, zooms, sound effects, music, and other editing techniques where appropriate Combine footage from different creators when it strengthens the overall story Ensure each edit communicates one clear idea rather than feeling like a compilation Create multiple creative variations for testing Take feedback and quickly iterate on edits Expected Deliverables

For each creative brief or footage package, you’ll be responsible for producing:

1. Main Edit

One complete direct-response edit 20–45 seconds Clear, cohesive product story

1. Alternate Hooks

Three alternative opening hooks Each should provide a different way of capturing attention while leading into the same main edit

1. Alternate Cut

One additional version with a different pace, structure, or storytelling angle What We’re Looking For Previous experience editing UGC, TikTok, Instagram Reels, paid social, or short-form content Strong understanding of social media editing and audience retention Excellent instinct for hooks and pacing Strong storytelling skills Ability to turn raw footage into a clear and engaging narrative Understanding of direct-response and performance-driven creative Ability to preserve authenticity while strategically improving the content Strong attention to detail Ability to work efficiently and meet deadlines Comfortable creating multiple variations from the same footage Strong creative judgment and an eye for what works on social Ideal Candidate

You’re more than someone who can technically edit a video.

You understand why people stop scrolling, what keeps them watching, and how to tell a compelling story in a short amount of time.

You know how to take imperfect creator footage and find the strongest story within it. You understand when to cut, when to let a moment breathe, how to strengthen a weak hook, and how to make the final edit feel like content first and an advertisement second.

Previous experience editing UGC, TikTok, Instagram Reels, paid social, or short-form content with strong understanding of social media editing, audience retention, hooks, pacing, and direct-response creative.
