Jr/Mid Video Editor

NeoWork is hiring a Senior Video Editor on behalf of a fast-growing UK-based DTC consumer app. This person owns the paid social ad production pipeline across Meta, TikTok, and programmatic channels, producing high-performing portrait-format creative at volume. They work inside an AI-assisted workflow, lead quality for junior editors in the pod, and adapt creative across 12 languages and 14 markets. This is a performance creative engine — not a long-form polish workflow.

What You'll Do

• Edit portrait-format (9:16) video ads for Meta, TikTok, AppLovin, Moloco, and Unity under the direction of the Senior Video Editor
• Execute briefs end-to-end: cut, caption, sound design, and export to channel spec at pace
• Produce hook variations and rapid iterations on a weekly cycle — this is a volume-first, performance-creative workflow
• Integrate AI tools into the editing pipeline for voiceover, timing, and asset generation (ElevenLabs and similar)
• Maintain clean project files and exports across shared asset libraries
• Receive feedback openly and apply it fast — the senior editor will develop this person; coachability is part of the role

Requirements

• 2–5 years editing social-first video. Traditional long-form, corporate, or TVC backgrounds do not transfer well to this role
• Portfolio or reel demonstrating portrait-format (9:16) content for Meta and/or TikTok — paid social ads preferred over organic content
• Solid Premiere Pro fundamentals: cutting rhythm, captions, sound mix, basic motion
• Familiarity with AI tools in a video workflow (ElevenLabs, Runway, CapCut AI features, or similar)
• Social-native instincts: understands hooks, attention retention, and what makes short-form ads perform
• Good written English for async collaboration with the UK team

Preferred Background

• DTC, consumer app, or e-commerce content experience
• Exposure to paid social ad formats and basic performance creative principles — hook testing, variant production
• After Effects fundamentals for motion and animated captions

Tools

• Premiere Pro | After Effects | ElevenLabs | CapCut | Frame.io | Google Drive | Slack | Notion
