2 Video Editors

Video Editor Company Overview It is a performance-driven creative agency that designs and produces paid social advertising at scale. The company specialises in ad creative across UGC, high-production shoots, AI-generated content, motion graphics, and animated formats, with a strong focus on measurable results and fast iteration. The team operates in small creative pods and values speed, craft, and a clear link between creative work and campaign performance. Mission You'll join a creative pod as a Video Editor reporting to the Lead Editor, working on structured briefs to deliver polished ad-ready content. Day-to-day you'll assemble sequences from numbered shot lists and scripts, apply titles, text animations, transitions, and accurate subtitles across multiple aspect ratios and languages, and turn rough assets into high-performing paid social creative. If you enjoy working fast, solving problems with limited assets, and making creative choices that help ads convert — you'll feel right at home. Key Responsibilities Your daily tasks will vary, giving you room to learn, grow, and strengthen your skills while supporting the team with excellence. Receive briefs and asset packages from the Lead Editor and deliver completed edits to the specified format, aspect ratio, and deadline. Assemble sequences from numbered clips and shot lists in the order set out by the creative strategy team. Apply titles, text overlays, animations, transitions, and subtitles to every deliverable. Edit across a wider variety of formats including social media ads, short-form content (TikTok/Reels), UGC, podcasts, YouTube content, and higher-production videos. Work with multi-language scripts and subtitles—assembling and formatting content in languages other than English. Deliver revisions and iterations based on feedback from the Lead Editor and creative strategists, often within the same day. Manage your project pipeline within Focal—keeping task statuses, deliverables, and deadlines up to date. Attend team standups, creative reviews, and pod meetings as scheduled. Flag blockers, delays, or asset issues to the Lead Editor proactively. Ensure edits are clean on first pass—no misaligned text, missing assets, or sloppy cuts. Make smart editorial calls when briefs or assets are ambiguous rather than waiting for clarification. Maintain speed and volume while preserving accuracy and attention to detail. Respond promptly to feedback, take notes, and avoid repeating the same mistakes. Work fully internally within the creative team (no direct client communication).
