Senior eCommerce Direct Response Video Editor (DTC / Health & Wellness)

Senior eCommerce Direct Response Video Editor (DTC / Health & Wellness) Who we are: TrendScale Media is a direct response creative agency. We build video and static ads for eCom health, wellness, and supplement brands — liquid Carnitine, magnesium, oral health, TENS devices, pest control, pet health. Our clients don't care about beautiful edits. They care about CPA, hold rate, and ROAS. We run a pod model: each pod is a mini agency with a lead strategist, junior strategists, and dedicated editors. You'd be the senior editor inside a pod, setting the bar for everyone else in it. What you'll actually do: - Cut 15–25 ads a week across UGC, VSL, AI-generated, and hybrid formats - Turn a strategist's script into a scroll-stopping ad — you own the hook, pacing, sound design, captions, b-roll sourcing, and the edit decisions that make or break the first three seconds - Build hook variants and iterations off winning ads (the highest-leverage work we do) - Use AI tooling as part of the pipeline — Higgsfield, HeyGen, Veo/Flow, ElevenLabs — not as a gimmick, but to produce footage and scenes we can't shoot - Keep edits inside Meta and FTC/FDA guardrails: no disease claims, no banned before/afters, no policy landmines that get an account restricted - Give feedback upstream. If a script won't cut well, you say so before you burn four hours on it. What we need from you: - 3+ years cutting paid social ads for DTC brands. Not wedding videos, not YouTube channels, not corporate brand films. Performance ads. - A reel or ad portfolio with **spend behind it** — tell us which ads scaled and what they did - Fluent in Premiere Pro or CapCut, plus After Effects for motion graphics and text treatments - You understand direct response fundamentals: hook, problem agitation, mechanism, proof, offer, CTA. You can name why an ad works. - Fast without being sloppy. Our turnaround is measured in hours, not weeks. - Clear written English and daily communication in Slack/ClickUp Nice to have - Supplement or health vertical experience (you already know what "structure/function claim" means) - Experience editing static ad concepts, not just video - Comfort in Meta Ads Library doing your own competitor research - Basic sound design chops and a personal SFX/b-roll library What we offer: - Clear pod structure — you're not a freelancer tossed random files, you're inside a team with a strategist who briefs you properly - Performance bonus on ads that cross the spend threshold and win - Long-term retainer clients, not one-off projects - Direct line to the founder and real input on creative direction Send us your portfolio 1. Your ad reel or 3–5 links to ads you cut, with a one-line note on performance for each 2. One paragraph: pick any supplement ad currently running on Meta, tell us why the hook works or doesn't 3.
