The Creative Editor role focuses on producing high-converting video and static ads for performance-driven campaigns. Responsibilities include editing ads, creating variations for testing, leveraging AI tools, and collaborating with the growth team to improve ad effectiveness.
We’re not looking for a traditional editor who spends days polishing a single video.
We’re looking for a performance-driven video editor who can move fast, test angles, and scale output - and who can also create high-converting static ads when needed.
This is a hybrid role where video is the core, but the ability to design static creatives adds leverage and speed to our creative pods.
If you’re the kind of creative professional who:
- Thinks in hooks, CTAs, and conversion (not just visuals)
- Can edit UGC-style videos, testimonials, and product demos fast
- Can also put together clean, effective static ads for paid social
- Uses AI tools (ChatGPT, Runway, CapCut AI, etc.) to increase output
- Moves fast, iterates quickly, and doesn’t over-polish
Then you’re our person.
⚡ Why This Role Exists- Creative volume wins: Our clients need both video and static ads to test fast and scale what works
- Hybrid creatives = leverage: Being able to execute both formats increases speed and output per pod
