Senior Video Editor: Direct Response Ads

Senior Video Editor: Direct Response Ads — $3,500 to $5,000/month

Remote · Full-time · At least 4 hours a day overlapping 10am to 6pm Dubai time (2pm to 10pm Manila)

---

You've edited hundreds of ads. How do you know which ones worked?

Most editors cut what they're handed, send it off, and never find out. You get a brief you didn't write, for a hook you'd have done differently, and nobody tells you the result. If you only want to be handed a brief and cut it, stop here. This isn't that.

You'd be cutting for a Dubai performance creative agency working with fast-growing ecommerce and health brands on Meta and TikTok. The founders built and sold a 7-figure ecommerce brand and grew a media company to 95,000 newsletter subscribers. They run on AI and they move fast. Ally is hiring on their behalf.

The job

• Cut fast-paced DR ads: VSLs, UGC and creator cuts, hook stacks, AI UGC, AI explainers, animated.

• Use AI tools (avatars, voice, AI b-roll, image-to-video) to make formats a normal editor can't.

• Bring your own hooks, structures and visual concepts. They want your brain, not only your hands.

---

Your first 30 days

• You get put through intensive training. Their own courses, daily calls with the founders, feedback on everything you make, and you start writing hooks, briefs and scripts yourself.

• By the end of it you're not an editor. You're a Creative Producer.

• That means you d ---------- what ad gets made and why, you write the hook and the brief, you get it produced, and you read the numbers afterwards to d ---------- what comes next.

• And it doesn't stop there. The role grows into leading creative operations and delivery.

The money

$3,500 to $5,000 USD a month depending on experience, plus bonuses when your ads become winners.

It's a high number because this is three jobs in one. The craft, the AI stack, and the judgment to know why an ad converts. Most editors have one of those. A few have two.

We're hiring one person for this role now. Ally places senior editors with growing ecommerce and health brands regularly, so if you're strong and this particular one isn't the fit, we'll come to you first when the next opens.

---

You're a fit if

• 3+ years editing paid social ads, ideally ecommerce, DR, supplements, info products or affiliates

• You can show ads that actually ran

• You've made AI UGC, AI avatar or AI-generated ads. We'll ask which tools and what they replaced

• You've picked up a new AI tool in the last few months and it changed what you can make

• Multiple ads a day doesn't scare you

• Your English is strong enough to follow scripts precisely

• You can give at least 4 hours a day overlapping 10am to 6pm Dubai time

---

You're not a fit if

• Your portfolio is mostly brand films, weddings or vlogs

• You only want to edit and never think about why an ad works

• You need days to turn around one ad

How to apply
Fill out the form: ----------

Record a 2 to 3 minute Loom. Pick one ad you edited that actually ran and walk us through it.
What was the hook, and why that structure? What did you d ---------- yourself, and what was handed to you in the brief? How long did it run, or roughly what did it spend, if you know? What would you change now?

No Loom, no review. We watch every one.

We review every application within two working days and we reply either way.
