What we're looking for
We're working with a fast-growing US-based fashion and apparel brand that sells direct to consumer and scales through paid social. They're looking for a Video Editor who lives and breathes performance creative, building direct response ads for Meta and TikTok that stop the scroll and drive conversions. This is a performance-first role, not a general content or aesthetic editing role.
What Youll Be Doing
- Edit raw footage, including UGC and B-roll from the in-house content team, into direct response video ads.
- Compile clips from multiple UGC creators into single, cohesive ad videos, and repurpose edits across Meta and TikTok.
- Build scroll-stopping hooks and angles using text overlays, cold opens, and pattern interrupts.
- Execute weekly creative briefs across shifting focus areas (fabrics, size inclusivity, educational content).
- Produce multiple concept variations per brief, testing one variable at a time.
- Iterate on your edits based on the performance data and benchmarks shared with you.
Requirements
- Proven experience editing direct response video ads for Meta and TikTok, not just organic or brand content.
- Strong command of DR editing techniques: pacing, open loops, text on screen, voiceover layering, and retention-calibrated transitions.
- A working understanding of hooks and angles (you already think this way; it won't be taught from scratch).
- Comfort with both long-form and short-form edits, at high and low production quality.
- Motion graphics ability.
- Background in fashion, apparel, accessories, or beauty, plus the ability to pick things up fast (training bandwidth is limited, especially heading into Black Friday).
Nice to Have
- Basic static ad and graphic design work, such as pulling features and facts from e-commerce product images.
- Familiarity with KPIs like hold rate, thumbstop rate, click-through rate, ROAS, and landing page views (you won't own the analysis, just work from the benchmarks provided).
- A baseline understanding of copywriting and messaging, enough to talk through angles and hooks with the hiring manager.
Benefits
- Competitive USD salary.
- 100% remote work.
