Full job description
Sweat Pants Agency is a performance marketing agency and the ONLY agency behind multiple INC #1 fast-growing brands. We create, test, and scale ads across Meta, TikTok, Instagram, and other paid social platforms.
We are looking for a Performance Creative Video Editor, Paid Social who can turn raw UGC, talking-head footage, product clips, client assets, AI-generated b-roll, and social references into engaging, platform-native ads.
Most of our creative is built for Meta, so this role is ideal for someone who understands paid social ads, direct response creative, UGC-style editing, short-form hooks, and fast creative iteration.
This is not just a “make it look nice” editing role. We are looking for someone who understands the difference between a beautiful edit and an effective ad.
You should be able to look at a video and think:
“Where would someone drop off?” “How do we make the hook stronger?” “Does this feel native to the platform?” “Does the edit support the angle?” “Is this persuasive from a consumer’s perspective?”
You will work closely with creative strategists, media buyers, and creative directors to edit paid social ads for ecommerce brands. The ideal candidate has strong instincts around hooks, pacing, retention, direct response structure, captions, audio, b-roll, AI tools, and what makes content feel native to platforms like Meta, Instagram, and TikTok.
You should also be comfortable using AI tools to improve the creative process. This may include generating natural-looking filler footage, creating product b-roll, producing AI voiceovers, transcribing scenes, analyzing competitor ads, or speeding up editing workflows.
What You’ll Do
Edit Paid Social Ads
Edit performance-driven video ads for Meta, Instagram, TikTok, Reels, and other short-form platforms
Turn raw UGC, talking-head footage, testimonials, product demos, founder content, and creator-style clips into finished ads
Create multiple hooks, angles, and video variations for creative testing
Build strong first-three-second hooks with visual impact
Repurpose existing footage into new ad concepts and variations
Make videos feel native to the platform, not like overproduced brand commercials
Bring Direct Response Creative Instincts
Edit videos around direct response structures such as problem, agitation, solution, proof, and CTA
Match the editing style to the footage, offer, brand, and creative angle
Know when an ad should feel organic, handheld, raw, and native
Know when an ad should feel more polished, premium, or brand-forward
Use pacing, captions, pattern interrupts, b-roll, visual proof, and sound to keep people watching
Make the ad feel cohesive rather than stitched together with random filler
Think from the consumer’s perspective, not just the editor’s perspective
Improve Hooks, Pacing, and Retention
Strengthen hook visuals and opening moments
Improve pacing, scene order, and visual flow
Add captions, overlays, text callouts, screenshots, sound cues, and pattern interrupts
Identify moments where viewers may drop off and improve the edit accordingly
Create edits that are clear, engaging, persuasive, and easy to follow
Use sound design and audio pacing to make videos more engaging
Use AI Tools in the Creative Workflow
Use AI tools to generate natural-looking filler footage or additional product b-roll when client footage is limited
Match AI-generated footage to the quality, lighting, environment, and realism of the original clips
Use AI voiceover tools when applicable
Use AI tools for transcription, scene analysis, competitor ad comparison, and creative research
Understand when AI improves an edit and when it makes the video feel unnatural
Stay curious about new creative tools and workflows
Collaborate With the Creative Team
Read creative briefs and ask smart questions when something is unclear
Communicate estimated completion times before starting work
Send an initial draft for review when working on a new format or a brief with multiple variants
Take feedback from strategists, media buyers, and creative directors
Revise quickly and communicate clearly around blockers, timelines, and priorities
Pull inspiration from winning ads, organic content, competitor ads, and top creators
Recommend new creative angles, hooks, structures, and references when appropriate
You’re a Great Fit If...
You have 2 to 5+ years of video editing experience
You have experience editing paid social ads, UGC-style content, short-form content, or DTC ecommerce ads
You understand what makes content feel native to Meta, Instagram, TikTok, and Reels
You have strong instincts for hooks, pacing, retention, and visual flow
You understand direct response advertising and performance creative
You can tell the difference between content that is visually aesthetic and content that is persuasive to a consumer
You know how to adapt the edit based on the footage style, whether it should feel raw and organic or polished and premium
You are strong with captions, typography, sound design, overlays, and voiceover pacing
You can create multiple ad variations quickly without sacrificing quality
You ask questions when a brief is unclear
You communicate clearly about timelines, revisions, and blockers
You are comfortable using AI tools in your creative workflow
You have a strong sense of what keeps viewers watching
Tools You Should Be Comfortable With
You do not need to know every tool listed, but you should be fast at learning new creative tools.
Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve
CapCut
Meta ad creative references and competitor research
TikTok native editor
Instagram native editor
ElevenLabs or similar AI voiceover tools
Higgsfield or similar AI image and video tools
Gemini, ChatGPT, or similar tools for transcription, scene analysis, and creative research
AI tools for image, video, voiceover, b-roll, and clip generation
Google Drive, Slack, Notion, Frame.io, or similar collaboration tools
Nice to Have
Experience editing direct response DTC ads
Experience working with paid social creative teams
Experience editing Meta ads specifically
