AI UGC Video Editor + Ad Creative Designer (Direct Response)

About the role

We're a small performance marketing agency running Meta ads for e-commerce brands. We need a high volume of ad creative — short-form UGC-style video and statics — produced fast.

This is not a brand design job. No logos, no brand guidelines. Every asset has one job: stop the scroll and sell. If you enjoy testing ten hooks to find the one that wins, you'll like this role.

We use Arcads for AI UGC generation, so you don't need to solve AI actor consistency. What we need is someone who can write scripts that perform in that format and turn the raw output into ads that convert.

Heads up on our client mix: we work in regulated categories including CBD, nicotine alternatives, spirits, and supplements. If you're not comfortable making ads in those categories, this isn't the right fit and that's completely fine.

What you'll do

Produce 15–25 new ad creatives per week (mix of statics and 15–30 second videos)
Write UGC scripts and hooks, generate videos in Arcads, then edit them into finished ads
Post-production: cutting, pacing, captions, b-roll, screen recordings, sound design
Design static ads — product on background, comparison charts, testimonial cards, before/after
Composite real client product photos into AI-generated scenes so labels and packaging stay accurate
Build modular creative — multiple hooks, bodies, and CTAs that recombine into variants
Iterate on winners based on performance data we send you weekly
Keep a clean, organized asset library and naming system

You must have

Real experience editing short-form UGC-style ads. Portfolio required.
Strong hook writing — you can take one product and write ten different opening lines
CapCut, Premiere, or After Effects fluency: captions, jump cuts, pacing, sound
Photoshop or equivalent for compositing and retouching
Understanding of direct response fundamentals: pattern interrupts, social proof, CTA placement
Fast turnaround — same-day or next-day on most requests
Conversational written English and clear daily communication
Willingness to track hours with time tracking software

Nice to have

Direct Arcads experience (if not, you'll pick it up in a day — but tell us what you've used instead)
AI image tools: Midjourney, Flux, Nano Banana, Seedream
Familiarity with Meta ad policy and what gets creative rejected
Experience with restricted or regulated verticals
Experience reading ad metrics (CTR, hook rate, hold rate, CPA)

What we offer

Long-term, stable work with a small team
Paid twice a month, on time, every time
No micromanaging — clear briefs, clear deadlines, you own the output
Rate increases based on results, reviewed at 3 and 6 months
