Video Editor

Video Editor (Individual Contract, Remote)

About Us

Vast Media Marketing is a performance marketing agency, founded in 2017, helping 7 to 9 figure eCommerce brands lower customer acquisition costs through paid ads, high-performance creative, and financial strategy. We work with growing eCom brands, plugging directly into their teams to handle everything from UGC and statics to full paid social scaling.

The Role

As our Video Editor, you'll be the final stop between raw content and scroll-stopping creative. You'll turn briefs, footage, and voiceovers into polished assets built to perform, whether that's for TikTok, Reels, or paid ad campaigns. You'll work closely with our Creative Strategists, Graphic Designers, and Performance team to bring concepts to life that are on-brand, story-driven, and built for conversions.

This is a role for someone who understands that great editing isn't just about transitions or colour, it's about storytelling, pacing, and understanding why something works.

Core Responsibilities

Post-Production Execution

• Edit short-form UGC, paid social ads, Reels, and static-to-video animations
• Execute on creative briefs with clarity, speed, and attention to platform best practices
• Select soundbites, music, motion, captions, and pacing that match brand + audience

Performance-Aware Editing

• Interpret feedback from Creative Strategists and performance data (e.g. why a hook flopped, why a scene retained viewers)
• Continuously improve editing approach based on what's working
• Keep retention, scroll-stopping, and conversion in mind throughout the process

Asset & Workflow Management

• Use our project templates, file naming conventions, and folder structures
• Export and deliver final files according to platform specs and brand standards
• Keep up to date with asset libraries (templates, music, motion graphics)

Team Collaboration

• Work closely with Creative Strategists to clarify briefs and creative vision
• Join creative reviews to receive and apply feedback constructively
• Share WIPs and cutdowns proactively for team input

You Should Have

• Strong proficiency with CapCut (desktop), fluent with keyframes, audio sync, speed ramping, transitions, etc.
• Experience using Turboscribe or similar AI tools for transcription and subtitle workflows
• Experience using Higgsfield or other AI-generating platforms
• Experience using Claude for AI generation
• Deep understanding of platform-specific editing styles (TikTok, Reels, Meta Ads)
• Comfort working with UGC, voiceover, and client-provided footage
• Strong sense of pacing, sound design, and captioning
• Bonus: motion design skills (After Effects, advanced CapCut plugins, etc.)

Who This Is For

• You're a fast, intuitive CapCut editor who knows how to turn raw clips into thumb-stopping content
• You care about why a video works, not just how it looks
• You're just as comfortable following a brief as offering ideas to improve it
• You're hungry to grow, open to feedback, and always iterating based on what's performing
• You want to be part of a team that values both speed and storytelling
• You're proactive, organized, and take pride in delivering clean, on-time edits
• You like working on content that drives results, not just views

• Fully remote
• 9 to 5 UK time zone (some flexibility)
• Salary: to be discussed based on experience
