DTC Direct-Response Video Editor

HIRING: Direct-Response Video Editor at BrandLab

I’ll give you the honest reason we’re hiring :

We have more winning ideas than we can currently turn into ads.

So we’re looking for an editor who can do more than make videos look good.

We want someone who can think, choose and create

.

Someone who reads a script and immediately starts imagining the hook, the visuals and the moments that will make the message land.

We’ll give you the strategy, script and brief.

You bring the creative judgment that turns them into ads people actually stop and watch.

The point is to make the message easier to understand, harder to ignore and more persuasive.

That is what direct response editing means to us.

You’ll probably love this role if…

You pause ads to study their hooks.

You notice when a visual doesn’t match what’s being said.

You enjoy finding unexpected ways to bring an idea to life.

You care about why an ad works not only how it looks.

And you like direct feedback because you want to improve quickly.

You’ll edit UGC ads, mashups, voice-over ads, AI-presenter ads and VSLs

for growing DTC brands.

Some ads should feel raw and native. Others need more polish.

Good editors know how to use the tools.

Great editors know what the viewer needs to see next.

The opportunity

You’ll work directly with creative strategists and senior editors,

receive clear feedback and learn from the ads we test and the winners we find.

This role starts with editing, but it is built for someone who wants to grow into end-to-end creative ownership.

Direct-Response Video Editor → Senior Video Editor → End-to-End Creative Strategist → Creative Lead

This probably isn’t for you if…

• You only care about cinematic edits.
• You need someone to choose every visual for you.
• You skim briefs or miss requested variations.
• You become defensive about feedback.
• You want a temporary gig where you can go through the motions.

But if you want to become genuinely great at performance creative, this could be the right seat.

Compensation

• Junior:

  $1,000/month

• Mid-level:

  1,500–2,000/month

• Senior:

  2,000–2,500/month

Employment

This is a full-time, exclusive position with Brand Lab

.

You can work:

• On a schedule aligned with our Bangkok team; or

• From a European time zone with at least 4–5 hours of daily overlap

  with Bangkok.

You’ll receive 15 paid vacation days

and 5 paid sick days

per year.

PTO eligibility begins after six months.
