Summary

Glint Marketing is a performance marketing agency. We produce Facebook and Instagram ad creative for 6+ DTC ecommerce and personal brands across wellness and beauty, automotive, luxury goods, coffee, finance, and beverage. We are hiring multiple video editors or small team as our long-term editing partner. Every video you cut goes live as a Meta ad and gets measured. The work 40-80 Meta ad creatives per month, in batches of about 10 assigned twice a week Each batch is due within one week of the day it is assigned, counted in calendar days, so weekends fall inside the window Mostly talking head and personal brand, plus UGC-style and organic-style reach videos, 15 to 60+ seconds We provide everything: footage, scripts, hooks, shot lists, brand guidelines, and reference examples. You do not do strategy What this role actually requires These are direct response ads, not brand films. Your cutting decisions move real numbers. The first three seconds decide everything. We watch hook rate, and a weak opening kills an ad no matter how good the rest is You deliver 9:16 reels, with text and key visuals inside 4:5 visual safe zones We test multiple hooks against the same body, so you should produce hook variants efficiently rather than rebuilding a timeline each time (or deleting the project file immediately) Captions on every ad. Most of our audience watches muted Exports platform-ready for Meta, efficient low bitrates while maintaining the balance of quality and file size. Who we are looking for Proven experience cutting creative that ran as paid social ads Real editorial instinct. You know when to hold a beat and when to cut fast, and you carry that across genres, from a founder talking to camera to a fast-paced UGC ad Your own spin. We value an editor who can match a reference style. We value one who can make something more engaging out of it even more. Going off the brief is encouraged when it produces a better performing video Organized and autonomous. Clear file naming, sensible version control, uploads that land on time, and a heads-up from you before something runs late rather than after We are not looking for: Your portfolio is mainly weddings, events, corporate brand videos, music videos, or long-form YouTube You have never edited creative that ran as a paid ad You need to be chased to hit a deadline or worst ghost us when you're behind on deadlines. You do not follow organizational practices when uploading and organizing video files The one dealbreaker Zero typos in captions. Every other quality standard is spelled out in the RFP, but this is the one that ends engagements. Tools Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut, or equivalent, plus AI captioning tools. We deliver through Shade (shade.inc) and run communication on Slack. Rates Supply us your rate for one sample trial edit. How to apply Full scope, workflow, quality standards, and revision process are in the attached RFP. Download it and answer all 8 questions, then attach your response as a .docx or .pdf. Applications without it will not be reviewed. Start your proposal with the words 'CLEAN CUTS', and lead your portfolio with short-form ads that have in the past. (Behance, Google Drive, Dropbox, Video portfolio links are favored) Timeline Application submissions close Friday, July 24. Once submitted, we will agree on a trial rate, then assign a paid one-video sample with two days to complete it. Final selection is Monday, July 27.
