Meta Ads Video Editor
Worldwide
We're looking for video editors who are ready to work really hard and be renumerated accordingly. Most creative roles cap your earnings at the base salary. Ours doesn't. We pay a base that reflects what you bring, and then we share the upside with the people generating it. The better your ads perform, the more you earn. The cap is set by your creative output, not by us. There's no ceiling, and top performers can earn very, very good money. About Us We're a London based growth marketing agency for mobile subscription apps — creative production, performance marketing on Meta and TikTok, the works. We partner with some of the biggest and fastest-growing apps on the App Store: category leaders, household names, and the next wave of breakout hits. Our creative drives millions in revenue for our clients, and we're scaling fast alongside them. The Role We're hiring a Video Editor to join our creative team. Day-to-day you'll be cutting UGC-style ads (TikTok and Reels format) for a roster of high-profile app clients; work that gets seen by millions across TikTok, Reels, and Meta. You'll also get hands-on with AI video tools as we push into AI-led storytelling and creative production. This role is built around making ads that win. Volume matters - we ship a lot, and we ship fast. But the goal isn't edits for the sake of edits. It's finding the hooks, formats, and ideas that actually generate sales for our clients. The editors who thrive here are the ones who care about performance, not just craft. The Pace and The Bar We're looking for 15-20+ edits a day. That's a real number, not a stretch goal. The pace is high because performance on social is unpredictable. No one, not the best agencies, not the best editors, not the best marketers can reliably call which ad will win before it's tested. So we don't try to. We ship volume, we test fast, and we let the data tell us what's working. That said, volume alone isn't the point. We're looking for someone chasing winners, not just hitting quotas. The editors who thrive here are the ones who study what's working - their own wins, competitor ads, trending hooks, format shifts on each platform and apply those signals to the next round of edits. The more informed your shots, the more often they connect. The mindset we want is simple: take real creative swings, ship a lot of them, learn from what wins, and double down. Winners come from shots on target. The more shots you take, the more winners you find. And the more winners you find, the more you earn (more on that below). In return, you'll be working on creatives seen by millions of users across TikTok, Reels, and Meta. You'll have access to the most interesting AI video tools in the space, and will see your work drive real growth for real apps. And even better you'll see exactly how that scales your own earnings. What you'll do - Edit UGC-style video ads for TikTok, Reels, and Meta that are built to perform - Ship high volume without dropping quality (we're testing constantly to find winners) - Use AI video tools to expand what you can produce and explore new creative angles - Study what's working: hooks, formats, trends, competitor ads - Iterate on winners (when an ad performs, double down and create variations) - Hit deadlines and own your output end-to-end You'll Thrive Here If You: - Have solid short-form editing experience and a sharp eye for what wins on social - Care about performance, not just craft; you want to know your work drove results - Can move fast and stay consistent under deadline pressure - Are genuinely curious about AI video and want to push into it - Take ownership of your output - accountable for the final deliverable, not just the edit - Want to be paid well for being good at what you do What You'll Learn (And How Far You Can Take It) You'll be working alongside a team that lives and breathes performance creative. Strategists, media buyers, and senior marketers who can tell you why they think an ad works, not just whether it did. If you want to learn, we'll teach you. Over time you'll pick up the skills to evaluate creative the way our strategists do: what makes a strong hook, why certain formats outperform, what's actually driving ROAS, and how to build creative testing frameworks that find winners faster. For editors who want it, there's a clear path to owning the full pipeline — taking a creative from idea, to brief, to script, to final edit. Some editors love that and want to grow into a full creative producer role. Some prefer to stay heads-down on editing and ship volume. Both work here. The opportunity is there if you want it, but it's not a requirement. Tools We don't mind what you edit in. Premiere, CapCut, DaVinci, Final Cut, After Effects, whatever gets you to a winning ad fastest. The right tool depends on the job: CapCut for fast UGC cuts, Premiere or DaVinci for more polished edits, After Effects when motion graphics genuinely need it. What we care about is that you pick the right tool for each piece of work — not that you default to the most familiar one out of habit. If you're spending hours on something that should've taken 20 minutes, this probably isn't the right fit.
