About this role
ABOUT THE ROLE
You turn raw footage into ads that stop the scroll. You’ll edit short-form video ads for Meta & TikTok alongside Creative Strategists and Creator Coordinators - and you’ll own the quality of every edit you touch, from first cut to final caption check.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Edit 5 short-form ads per day (45–60s) for Meta & TikTok.
- Own your edit quality - pacing, b-roll match, storytelling flow - and fix what’s off before anyone else has to point it out.
- Source missing footage yourself - AI generation, internet scraping, whatever it takes. Don’t stall the project.
- QA every deliverable before it leaves your queue. Zero caption errors, every time.
- Build hook variations and iterations to support testing and scaling.
WHAT YOU’LL NEED
- Experience editing Meta/TikTok ads or performance-driven content.
- Proficiency in Premiere Pro, CapCut, or equivalent.
- Sharp editorial judgment - you know when an edit isn’t landing (pacing off, b-roll mismatched, hook weak) and you fix it without being told.
- Proactive by nature - when footage is missing, you solve it, when something’s wrong, you flag it, when a brief is unclear, you ask upfront.
- Strong English and zero tolerance for caption errors. What you submit is clean.
HOW WE’LL MEASURE SUCCESS
- Output: 5 ads/day (45–60s).
- Turnaround: within 24–36 hours of receiving footage.
- Revision rate: under 5%.
- Caption accuracy: zero errors.
- Collaboration: positive feedback from strategists and coordinators.
