Video Editor (Performance Marketing)
About the role
About the Role
We're looking for a performance-focused Video Editor to create high-converting direct response ads for Meta, TikTok, AppLovin, and other paid channels.
This isn't a cinematic editing role. We care about hooks, storytelling, pacing, retention, and conversions. Every edit should be built to sell.
You'll work closely with our Creative Strategists to turn scripts into ads that capture attention, keep viewers watching, and drive purchases. The best editors don't just cut footage - they understand the message, choose the right visuals for every sentence, and make every second count.
Our Core Values
Conversion First - Everything we create exists to improve performance and drive revenue.
Creative Excellence - We obsess over storytelling, pacing, hooks, retention, and visual quality.
Attention to Detail - Every subtitle, transition, sound effect, frame, stock clip, and cut matters.
Please Do Not Apply If You:
Have never worked with a DTC eCommerce brand
Only edit cinematic, YouTube, or corporate videos
Rarely use AI in your editing workflow
Don't understand direct response advertising
Cannot commit to a full-time schedule
Prefer detailed hand-holding instead of taking ownership
How to Apply
As part of your application, please include:
The DTC brands you've worked with
Examples of ads you personally edited
Your portfolio or showreel
Your expected monthly salary (USD)
Your availability and time zone
Important: Please only submit work that you personally edited. We review every portfolio carefully and verify experience during the interview process.
Requirements
What We're Looking For
Proven experience editing videos for DTC eCommerce brands (required)

You take the time to truly understand the script before editing. You know how to find the perfect visuals, B-roll, UGC clips, stock footage, AI-generated assets, and motion graphics to reinforce every line of the script.

Strong familiarity with leading DTC brands such as Hismile, Ryze, Grüns, IM8, Seranova, and similar performance-driven brands
You've worked with multiple types of consumer brands or actively study the best-performing ads and understand why they work.
Highly proficient with AI editing workflows. You regularly use AI to generate realistic A-roll, AI actors, B-roll, product scenes, voiceovers, images, 3D animations, and other creative assets that improve production quality and speed.
You understand TikTok, Instagram Reels, Meta, and AppLovin creative because you've spent countless hours analysing top-performing ads, creators, and trends.
Strong understanding of organic content formats and social media trends
Excellent written and spoken English
Able to work full-time in a fast-paced remote environment
Comfortable receiving feedback and iterating quickly
Benefits

Competitive monthly salary

Stable, full-time remote position
Work alongside a high-performing creative team
Access to training and resources to become a better performance marketer
