Video Editor

We're Imperia Strategies, a meta ads agency. Facebook and Instagram ads are our main growth engine, and our creative pipeline is the bottleneck — we have more ad concepts and raw footage than we can edit. The ads you cut go straight into live campaigns, so your work directly affects our ROAS, CPA, and how fast we can test new angles. This is a high-volume, iteration-heavy role focused on one thing: making ads that convert.
What you'll do (daily):

Edit direct-response video ads for Facebook and Instagram — Feed, Reels, and Stories placements
Cut UGC-style ads, problem/solution spots, and hook-driven creative from raw and creator footage
Produce multiple variations of winning ads (new hooks, intros, CTAs, lengths) for testing — often 4–8 versions of one concept
Edit in the right specs and aspect ratios for Meta placements (9:16, 4:5, 1:1)
Add captions, sound design, text overlays, and pattern interrupts built for sound-off feeds
Apply our brand templates and keep creative consistent.
Expected volume: about [20–30] ad edits/variations per week.
Must-haves:

3+ years editing experience with a reel showing paid social / direct-response ad work (not event or corporate reels)
Strong skills in Adobe Premiere Pro (or DaVinci Resolve / Final Cut)
Sharp instinct for hooks, pacing, and retention in a paid feed — you know why an ad stops the scroll
Solid audio cleanup, captions, and on-screen text built for sound-off viewing
Understanding of Meta ad formats, placements, and specs
Reliable, self-directed, and good with deadlines in an async setup
Stable internet and a computer that can handle editing

Nice-to-haves:

After Effects / motion graphics
SaaS or e-commerce ad experience
Familiarity with ad metrics (ROAS, CPA, hook rate, thumb-stop) and how creative affects them
AI editing tools (auto-captions, transcription) to work faster

Style: Clean, modern, fast — punchy hooks, readable text, sound-off-friendly. Focused on stopping the scroll and converting, not cinematic polish. Turnaround: ad variations next-day; new concepts in [24–48 hrs].
