Paired is a global staffing and recruiting agency specializing in connecting remote work opportunities with top-tier talent. We are committed to linking skilled professionals with outstanding companies worldwide, aiming to create fulfilling career paths for individuals across the globe.

We are currently seeking a Direct-Response Video Editor to join a fast-growing direct-to-consumer (DTC) brand on a remote basis. This brand runs rapid, data-driven ad campaigns primarily on Meta and TikTok, frequently launching new products and collections. The role involves editing short-form videos for both paid advertisements and organic content, focusing mainly on b-roll footage with text overlays and founder-generated user content such as launch announcements and direct-to-camera informative clips. The successful candidate will collaborate closely with a small, friendly marketing team on time-sensitive projects where clear communication and quick turnaround are essential.

Key Responsibilities

- Collaborate with the marketing team to brainstorm creative ad and content ideas.
- Edit short-form videos tailored for Meta and TikTok platforms, covering both paid ads and organic posts.
- Deliver polished videos that include captions, on-screen text, and royalty-free music.
- Craft compelling hooks to maintain viewer engagement and emphasize clear calls-to-action (CTAs) that drive conversions.
- Incorporate feedback from review rounds promptly and resubmit without delays.
- Monitor ad performance metrics and leverage insights to refine future video edits.
- Adhere strictly to brand guidelines and approved language in all captions and on-screen text.

Required Qualifications

- Demonstrated understanding of effective hooks, viewer retention strategies, and conversion-driven CTAs.
- Willingness to learn and adapt to the brand’s community, including its mindset and expectations, ensuring all ads resonate authentically.
- Respect for brand compliance, including careful use of language (e.g., emphasizing product resistance rather than magnet strength) and avoidance of restricted or insensitive terms.
- Proven experience editing direct-response or performance-based video advertisements.
- Full proficiency in professional video editing software.
- Strong command of English, with the ability to identify and correct wording, spelling, and grammar errors in scripts, videos, and team communications.
- Exceptional attention to detail, especially in fast-paced environments with multiple review cycles.
- Ability to work efficiently and reliably under tight deadlines for time-critical product launches.

Preferred Qualifications and Benefits

- Experience with founder-led or user-generated content (UGC) style videos is a plus.
- Competitive base salary ranging from $1,500 to $2,500 USD per month, commensurate with experience and portfolio quality.
- Creative ownership of projects with opportunities to grow into managing larger-budget campaigns.
- 100% remote work flexibility, allowing you to work from anywhere.
- Join a dynamic, fast-paced team culture focused on innovation and high-impact growth.
- Collaborate with ambitious creators and e-commerce growth experts in a supportive environment.

This role offers an exciting chance to contribute creatively to a rapidly expanding brand while working remotely with a passionate and innovative marketing team.
