Video Editor — DTC Supplement Ads (Meta / UGC-Style VSLs)
Worldwide
We're a DTC ecommerce brand scaling short-form video ads on Meta, and we're looking for a video editor who's part craftsman, part storyteller. You'll turn our scripts (VSLs for a supplement line) into scroll-stopping ads that hold attention from the first frame and drive conversions. This isn't cut-and-trim work — you'll shape the story, source the right visuals, and make every scene earn its place. What you'll do: * Edit direct-response video ads for Meta (Facebook/Instagram) from provided scripts and hooks * Build punchy, native-feeling scroll stoppers that survive the first 3 seconds * Match visuals to script beats using AI video generation, stock footage, B-roll, and UGC clips * Sync pacing, captions, sound design, and music to maximize retention * Iterate quickly on variations for testing (multiple hooks, angles, cuts) You're a fit if you have: * Proven DTC / ecommerce experience editing Meta ads specifically (this is a must — please share examples) * A strong sense of story and pacing for direct-response, not just pretty edits * Hands-on skill with AI video tools (Runway, Sora, Kling, etc.) plus stock and footage sourcing * Fluency in the UGC / native ad aesthetic that performs on paid social * A fast turnaround mindset and comfort with rapid iteration To apply: Send your portfolio with DTC ecommerce ad examples that actually ran on Meta. Tell us about one ad you edited that performed well and why you think it worked.
