UGC Video Editor (Performance Ad Creatives for DTC Brands on Meta)

JOB OVERVIEW
We’re a performance marketing agency based in Glasgow, Scotland helping direct-to-consumer (DTC) brands across the UK scale profitably through Meta ads and performance creative.

We’re now looking for a UGC Video Editor to join our remote team. This is not a “cut and paste clips” role - it’s about editing UGC content that grabs attention, maintains focus, and most importantly, converts viewers into customers.

You’ll be working closely with our creative strategists and media buyers to turn UGC footage into high-performing ad videos for Meta campaigns. Every edit you produce will be tested directly in live campaigns, so you’ll see your work drive real brand growth.

RESPONSIBILITIES
- Edit UGC content into short-form ad videos for Meta (Facebook/Instagram).
- Create multiple variations and iterations quickly based on performance data and feedback.
- Add engaging video overlays and captions.
- Repurpose clips into new video creative concepts.
- Stay aligned with brand guidelines while ensuring edits are engaging.
- Collaborate daily with our creative strategists to bring ad concepts to life.

REQUIREMENTS
- At least 1 year of experience editing short-form video content (UGC, TikTok/Reels, or social ads).
- Strong portfolio of UGC-style edits or social-first video work.
- Familiarity with Meta ads and direct response style content is a big plus.
- Proficiency in video editing software (CapCut experience is ideal but not required - training can be provided).
- Understanding of what makes UGC ads perform.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, feedback-heavy environment where creative is constantly tested and optimised.
- Reliable, detail-oriented, and able to hit deadlines consistently.
- Good written and spoken English for clear communication.

NICE TO HAVE (but not required)
- Experience editing videos for DTC brands.
- Basic motion graphics or animation skills.
- Knowledge of AI tools (e.g. Claude, ChatGPT, etc).

WHY JOIN US?
- Work with a UK-based agency focused purely on performance marketing for DTC brands.
- Be part of a high-performance creative team where feedback and growth are constant.
- See your edits directly impact real ad accounts and brand growth.
- Long-term role with clear opportunities to grow as the agency grows.

NOTE: This is a contractor role. You will be engaged on a contract basis and responsible for handling your own taxes in your country of residence.

We’re excited to find the right video editor to join our team and grow with us. If you’re passionate about creating high-performing UGC content that drives results, we’d love to hear from you.
