Job Title: Video Editor / Director
Employment Type: Full-Time (40 hours/week)
About the Role
We are looking for an experienced, performance-oriented Video Editor with strong storytelling instincts and proven leadership experience directing video content and/or a small creative team. This role goes beyond hands-on editing — the ideal candidate can independently define creative direction, identify compelling angles, build strong hooks, and guide short-form content (UGC-style and paid ads) from concept to final cut with minimal oversight.
You'll thrive in a fast-paced, high-output environment where speed, creative ownership, and continuous iteration are essential.
About the Client
They are an exclusive e-commerce founder community that connects successful Amazon, DTC, and marketplace sellers to share strategies, resources, and networking opportunities to scale their businesses.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead creative direction for short-form video content across paid advertising, UGC, and social media platforms.
- Review raw footage and/or transcripts to identify the strongest story angle and translate it into a clear creative direction.
- Build compelling hooks that capture attention within the first few seconds.
- Guide the structure, pacing, and edit of high-performing narratives — either hands-on or by directing other editors.
- Produce multiple iterations based on feedback while maintaining fast turnaround times.
- Set and maintain creative and quality standards across the video output.
- Leverage AI tools to streamline workflows, analyze content, and generate creative ideas.
- Monitor creative performance and translate learnings into direction for future content.
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of professional video editing experience, including experience directing or leading video creative (as a lead editor, creative lead, or team director).
- Strong storytelling skills with the ability to turn raw footage into engaging narratives.
- Experience creating short-form content for paid ads, UGC, performance marketing, or social media.
- Ability to work independently and set creative direction with minimal supervision.
- Fast turnaround times and ability to manage high-volume creative production.
- Strong understanding of pacing, hooks, audience retention, and performance-driven editing.
- Excellent organizational skills and responsiveness in a fast-paced environment.
Nice-to-Have
- Experience filming content using professional cameras or smartphones.
- Willing to occasionally come to the US for corporate events.
- Familiarity with direct-response advertising and creative testing.
- Experience using AI tools (e.g., Claude, Runway, Kling, Higgsfield, Nano Banana) to improve creative workflows and productivity.
- Background working with lifestyle, consumer, or high-energy brands.
Ideal Candidate
We're looking for someone who is:
- A strong storyteller and creative decision-maker, not just a technical editor.
- Comfortable setting direction for their own work or guiding other editors.
- Fast-moving, proactive, and highly responsive.
- Comfortable receiving frequent feedback and iterating quickly.
- Curious about new tools and technologies that improve creative output.
- Reliable, self-directed, and able to thrive in a high-performance environment.
