About the Role

We're looking for a skilled and creative video editor experienced in crafting UGC and VSL ads for Meta.
This role goes beyond simple cutting — it's about storytelling, pacing, and psychology of direct-response advertising.

You'll be producing high-impact ad creatives that combine authentic UGC footage, persuasive copy, and AI-generated elements (voice, visuals, or transitions).
Each 1-minute video can take 4–8 hours from concept to final export.

Responsibilities

  • Edit and adapt UGC/VSL creatives for Meta Ads according to briefs and scripts

  • Build strong hooks (first 3 seconds) and maintain high engagement throughout

  • Integrate AI-generated assets (voiceovers, visuals, transitions) when relevant

  • Apply direct-response logic: problem → solution → proof → CTA

  • Collaborate closely with creative strategists, copywriters, and content managers

  • Implement feedback quickly, keeping high creative output under SOPs


Compensation & Conditions

  • Contract type: Contractor (~40 hours/week, tracked via Hubstaff)

  • Schedule: Monday–Friday, 8:00–17:00 GST (Dubai time), with a 1-hour break

  • Compensation: Negotiable, paid twice monthly via Payoneer

  • Bonuses: Performance-based rewards for high-performing ads

  • Tools provided: Paid access to Storyblocks, Runway, ElevenLabs, and other creative platforms

  • Paid Time Off: Available upon request, subject to business needs

Requirements

  • Proven portfolio of UGC/VSL ads (Meta, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts)

  • Strong understanding of direct-response ad structure and storytelling

  • Proficiency in video editing tools (Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut, etc.)

  • Basic familiarity with AI-assisted tools (Runway, ElevenLabs, etc.)

  • Attention to detail, sense of rhythm, and understanding of ad psychology

  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, feedback-driven environment

  • English fluency required


Tools & Workflow

  • Hubstaff time tracking

  • ClickUp for task management

  • Access to premium tools (Storyblocks, Runway, ElevenLabs, etc.)

Samples Required

Please include links to your most relevant video ads — ideally:

  • UGC / VSL ads in vertical 9:16 format

  • Duration up to 30–60 seconds

  • Showcase hooks, pacing, CTA, and storytelling
