Remote Video Editor – Short-Form & Ad Creative

About This Opportunity

We are representing a U.S.-based marketing agency that produces video creative for direct-response advertising campaigns. Our client serves brands in the home services and remodeling sector, and they need a skilled video editor who can transform raw footage into high-converting ad content at consistent volume.

This is a full-time contractor position based in Colombia, with working hours aligned to U.S. Central time. You'll collaborate directly with media buyers and copywriters, producing the short-form video assets that drive real campaign results. When your edits convert, the entire team sees it reflected in performance metrics.

This role requires both craft and consistency—a minimum of 30 edited pieces of content per week. If you're fast, organized, and take pride in clean work at volume, this opportunity offers a clear growth path and direct impact on campaign success.

Responsibilities

You will handle end-to-end video production for paid social campaigns:

• Edit a minimum of 30 pieces of content per week, primarily short-form vertical video including ads, social clips, talking-head content, and before/after project footage
• Cut raw client footage into polished, caption-ready edits with strong hooks, tight pacing, and clean audio
• Produce multiple variations of winning ads for A/B testing, experimenting with new hooks, CTAs, and openers
• Format deliverables correctly for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube placements
• Work directly with media buyers to understand creative performance and iterate on top performers
• Turn scripts and hooks from copywriters into finished video assets
• Manage your project queue through the team's project management system and meet deadlines consistently
• Maintain organized project files, brand assets, and templates for each client account
• Apply client branding consistently, including logos, colors, fonts, and end cards
• Self-review every edit before delivery to ensure clean captions, no dead frames, and correct aspect ratios

What We're Looking For

Required qualifications:

• 2+ years of hands-on video editing experience
• Deep proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or CapCut—fast enough to deliver approximately 6 finished edits per day
• Portfolio demonstrating short-form edits such as ads, reels, TikToks, or YouTube Shorts
• Strong instincts for hooks, pacing, and viewer retention—you edit with the scrolling viewer in mind
• Experience creating captions/subtitles and editing for sound-off viewing
• Professional working English (B2+)—briefs, feedback, and captions are in English; team communication is conducted in English daily
• Organized, deadline-driven work style with systems for managing volume consistently
• Reliable home office setup with an editing-capable computer and stable, high-speed internet
• Availability for a consistent Monday–Friday, full-time daytime schedule (Colombia time), overlapping U.S. Pacific business hours

Preferred experience:

• Familiarity with AI tools in video workflows (Runway, Descript, ElevenLabs, CapCut AI features, Midjourney, HeyGen, or similar)
• After Effects or motion graphics skills
• Experience editing direct-response ad creative with measurable campaign results
• Experience editing English-language content for U.S. audiences
• Familiarity with home services, construction, or local business content
• Thumbnail or static creative design skills using Canva or Photoshop
