Summary

**YOU NEED TO BE FLUENT IN ENGLISH FOR THIS JOB** We're a multi-person e-commerce team with several years of experience scaling DTC brands, and we're looking for a full-time video editor to own our UGC and VSL creative production. This role is central to our growth. You won't be editing in a vacuum — the creatives you cut go straight into paid traffic, and you'll see exactly how they perform. What you'll do: - Edit high-converting UGC and VSL ads for direct-response campaigns (primarily Meta) - Use AI generation tools to produce, enhance, and scale creative output - Iterate quickly on angles, hooks, and formats based on ad performance - Work closely with our creative and media-buying team What we're looking for: - Proven experience editing for DTC / e-commerce brands (this is a must) - A portfolio of edited videos — please include links, applications without one won't be reviewed - Strong command of AI video generation tools (Kling, Higgsfield, Runway, or similar) and Nano Banana for AI image generation - A sharp eye for pacing, retention, and what makes a direct-response ad convert - Full-time availability, able to work overlapping French business hours (CET) - Self-driven, fast, and comfortable in a high-output environment Open to men or women — what matters is skill and experience. What we offer: - Work with an experienced, multi-person e-commerce team - Clear path to grow into Head of Video Editing or Creative Strategist - Negotiable base salary plus a performance share — a % of the ad spend on the creatives you edit (your work performs, you earn more) - Free access to the latest AI and video editing trainings to keep sharpening your craft To apply: Send your portfolio of edited UGC/VSL work, a short note on your experience with DTC brands, and which AI tools you currently use. Tell us about one ad you edited that performed well and why you think it worked. We review every application with a portfolio.
