Content Creator & Strategist for Female Ecommerce

Video and Image Editor for Paid Social Ads DTC Ecommerce | Ongoing Part-Time Role We are a small UK marketing agency working with female-founded ecommerce brands across beauty, skincare, wellness, fashion and jewellery. We manage their paid social advertising, primarily on Meta. We are looking for one creative editor to take ownership of our ongoing content production. This is a part-time freelance role of approximately [X hours per week], with room to grow as we add more clients. What You’ll Be Doing 1. Video Editing for Paid Social We will provide raw client footage, product clips and B-roll. You will: * Edit short-form paid social ads in 9:16 and 4:5 formats * Add strong text-overlay hooks and captions * Work within each client’s brand guidelines * Create several variations of the same concept so that we can test different hooks, structures and creative approaches 2. Image-Based Ad Creative This is broader than traditional graphic design. You will create: * Lifestyle photography ads with text overlays * Product-led static ads designed to stop the scroll * Simple GIF-style or animated image content Most of this work will be for our fashion and jewellery clients. 3. Email Design You will lay out and build marketing emails in Klaviyo using copy, assets and brand guidelines that we provide. This is not an occasional extra. Email design will be a regular part of the role. The Creative Input We Expect We write the full ad copy, but we want your input on hook ideas. When we brief you on a concept, we expect you to suggest text-overlay hooks that you believe could stop the scroll, not simply execute the options we send. You should have a clear opinion on what makes a paid social ad effective, particularly during the first two seconds. What We’re Looking For * A reel or portfolio featuring short-form paid social ads that you personally created for DTC or ecommerce brands * Strong instincts for hooks, pacing and attention-grabbing openings * Confidence using CapCut and Canva, as we use both across the business and need files to be handed over cleanly * Previous experience designing and building marketing emails in Klaviyo * Strong image-editing and design skills using Photoshop, Illustrator, Figma, Canva or similar tools * The ability to follow brand guidelines exactly, including locked colour palettes, typography and layout rules * Reliable turnaround times and clear communication * Availability to complete a standard batch within approximately 48 hours * Comfort working with a UK-based team and around UK working hours Please note that we are specifically looking for paid social and ecommerce work. Wedding films, long-form YouTube videos and corporate videos are not relevant to this role. Nice to Have * Previous experience working with beauty, skincare, wellness, fashion or jewellery brands * An understanding of Meta advertising and creative testing * Experience creating multiple iterations from a single ad concept How to Apply Please include all of the following: 1. Two or three short-form paid social ads that you created yourself. For each example, briefly explain the original brief and what you personally contributed. 2. One or two marketing emails that you designed and built in Klaviyo. 3. Three hook lines for a skincare or fashion product of your choice. These should be text overlays that you would test at the beginning of a video ad. Please provide one line per hook; no explanation is needed. 4. The tools you use for video editing and image design. 5. Your hourly rate and the number of hours you can commit each week. Please do not send a generic proposal. We read every application carefully, but we will not consider applications that do not respond directly to the points above. Paid Trial Shortlisted applicants will be invited to complete a small paid trial using a real advertising concept. The trial will include: * One video ad edit * One image ad * One email layout The trial will be paid at your stated hourly rate.
