Video Editor - Paid Social

Who You Are You’re a creative storyteller who knows how to stop the scroll and drive people to action. You thrive in fast-paced environments where speed over perfection is the norm, and you bring energy, resourcefulness, and discipline to every edit. You find a way when the path isn’t clear, innovate and simplify when things get complex, and obsess over customers by understanding what drives them to believe and invest. You see every piece of creative as a test — a chance to learn, iterate, and improve. You understand that performance and storytelling go hand in hand. For you, a great ad is one that converts. What you’ll do As our Video Editor – Paid Social, you’ll transform founder interviews, b-roll, AI footage, and investor stories into high-performing ad creatives that help our clients raise capital directly from their communities. Your edits will drive real business outcomes — helping founders reach their fundraising goals while creating experiences that inspire confidence, excitement, and action among investors. Your core responsibilities will include: - Edit direct-response style ads optimized for scroll-stopping hooks, emotional storytelling, and clear CTAs that drive investment actions. - Create and test multiple variations of each ad, experimenting with structure, messaging, pacing, and visual emphasis. - Collaborate with creative strategists, copywriters, and performance marketers to align on messaging and audience intent. - Review performance data (watch time, thumb-stop rate, CTR, conversions) to refine creative strategy. - Maintain consistency with client brands while adapting tone, energy, and style for different audiences and platforms. - Manage timelines efficiently — balancing speed and quality across multiple concurrent campaigns. - Use AI-powered tools to accelerate production, ideation, and optimization workflows. - Uphold compliance and accuracy standards for marketing investment opportunities. What Skills You Need - 3+ years of experience editing paid social ads (experience in DTC, performance marketing, or financial storytelling preferred). - Proven ability to craft short-form videos that drive measurable results, not just engagement. - Expertise with Adobe Premiere Pro + Adobe After Effects. - Familiarity with ad performance metrics and creative analysis (CTR, ROAS, retention curves). - Ability to work fast, test often, and learn from outcomes. - Project management & organizational skills required to handle a high-volume of requests - Excellent collaboration and communication skills — you give and receive feedback clearly and directly. - Comfort and excitement using AI tools for editing, captioning, or creative variation generation.
