About the role

Original posting from Onhires via Ashby

Performance Video Editor (Meta DTC Ads) — Remote (CET ±2h), Full-time Contract

Our client is a US-based DTC wellness brand selling natural supplements directly to customers and growing through paid social. Meta is its main growth channel right now. The company is bringing creative production in-house, so this is a long-term, full-time role, not another short freelance gig.

Why this role is worth a look

  • Your ads run in a real ad account and get tested. You see which ones win, and winning ads earn a bonus.
  • You work directly with the VP of Growth. Feedback is fast, and there are no agency layers between you and the person making decisions.
  • The full toolkit is provided, including Adobe and AI tools like Higgsfield.
  • Volume is realistic, about 6 videos per month, so there’s time to do each ad properly.
  • The creative team is growing: you’ll be the second full-time editor.

What you’ll do

  • Edit short-form ads (up to 1–2 minutes) for Meta: UGC-style ads, AI voiceover ads and AI-generated animated ads
  • Turn scripts and raw assets into ads that hold attention: strong hooks, pacing, music and sound design
  • Generate AI voiceovers and, where needed, AI scenes
  • Make sure captions match the script exactly
  • Take feedback, apply it, and carry it into the next video

Volume is about 6 videos per month, depending on format. We care more about quality and learning from feedback than about speed.

How we work

  • You report directly to the VP of Growth
  • Tasks come through ClickUp with all assets provided. After onboarding, you work independently
  • We provide all tools, including Adobe and Higgsfield
  • Remote, with at least 4 hours of overlap with 9:00–16:00 CET
  • Full-time (40h/week), independent contractor agreement
  • Performance bonus for winning ads

What we’re looking for

  • A portfolio of real DTC paid social ads, ideally for Meta. This matters more than years of experience or a title
  • Experience with UGC ads. AI voiceovers or AI animation is a strong plus
  • Storytelling instinct: you know when to cut, when to change the rhythm and when sound does the work
  • Attention to detail
  • English good enough to work comfortably on Slack and proofread captions

Nice to have

  • Supplement or health/wellness ads
  • Experience with US-market brands
  • Hands-on experience with AI video tools (Higgsfield, Kling, Runway or similar)

Not a fit if your background is mainly YouTube or long-form editing without paid ads.

Process: a short intro call, then a paid trial on real projects.

To apply, send a link to your portfolio with ad examples and briefly note your role in each: edited, concept, AI work, etc.
