Video Editor — Short-Form Social & Paid Creative in Liverpool

Location

Liverpool office / Hybrid / Remote for the right person

Role type

Full-time

We’re a performance, branding and growth marketing agency working with ambitious ecommerce brands.

We help brands grow through paid media, creative, web, CRO and CRM, all under one roof.

We’re not a traditional agency where creative is produced in a silo and passed to media buyers with no context.

Our creative team works closely with paid media, strategy and production to create better work, test faster and understand what is driving results.

We care about producing content that looks good, but more importantly, content that captures attention, holds it and drives action.

The Role

We’re looking for a Video Editor who knows how to create sharp, engaging short-form content for social media.

Most of the work will involve videos of up to 60 seconds for Meta, Tik Tok, Instagram Reels and You Tube Shorts.

You’ll be editing a mix of

• UGC
• Creator content
• Founder-led videos
• Paid social ads
• Organic social content
• Offer-led and direct-response creative
• Reviews, unboxings and feature breakdowns

This is a great role for someone who enjoys moving quickly, trying new ideas and seeing how their work performs in the real world.

You’ll work closely with our Creative Strategists, Paid Media Managers, Designers and Production Team to turn briefs and raw footage into strong, platform-native content.

• What You’ll Be Doing
• Editing short-form content for Meta, Tik Tok, Instagram and You Tube Shorts
• Turning raw footage into polished, engaging videos
• Creating strong hooks that capture attention early
• Using pacing, captions, sound design and visual changes to keep people watching
• Adapting edits for different platforms and audiences
• Creating multiple versions of concepts for testing
• Working from creative briefs while bringing your own ideas to the table
• Using performance feedback to improve future edits
• Keeping project files, footage and B-roll organised
• Managing multiple projects across different brands
• Using AI tools to streamline workflows and improve output where useful
• Staying on top of platform trends without copying everything that appears on your feed
• What We’re Looking For
• 2+ years of professional video editing experience
• A strong portfolio of short-form social content
• Experience editing paid social ads, UGC, ecommerce content or direct-response creative
• Strong skills in Premiere Pro, After Effects, Cap Cut or similar tools
• A good understanding of hooks, pacing, retention and social-first storytelling
• Confidence working with captions, sound design, typography and motion
• The ability to follow a brief without needing every edit mapped out for you
• Strong time management and organisational skills
• The ability to work quickly while maintaining high quality
• Someone who takes feedback well and does not take revisions personally
• A genuine interest in what makes creative perform, not just how it looks
• Extra Points For
• Ecommerce or DTC experience
• Agency experience
• Experience producing a high volume of content
• Motion graphics or animation skills
• Colour correction and audio clean-up experience
• An understanding of Meta and Tik Tok ad performance
• Experience working with creators or UGC footage
• A good working knowledge of AI editing and creative tools
• Experience turning one idea into multiple strong variations
• You’ll Probably Enjoy This Role If
• You like fast-moving creative environments
• You enjoy testing different ideas and formats
• You can spot when an opening hook is not strong enough
• You care about the small details
• You are happy working across different brands and styles
• You enjoy collaborating but can also get on with the work independently
• You like using data and feedback to make creative better
• You want to grow into a Senior Video Editor, Creative Strategist or Creative Lead role
• This Role Probably Isn’t for You If
• Your experience is mainly in long-form You Tube content, weddings or cinematic films
• You care more about flashy transitions than clear messaging
• You struggle with deadlines or managing multiple projects
• You need perfect footage before you can start an edit
• You rely heavily on templates
• You do not enjoy feedback or revision rounds
• You are not interested in why one video performs better than another
• You are not open to using AI tools as part of your workflow
• What You’ll Get
• £30,000–£40,000 salary depending on experience
• Hybrid working, with remote options for exceptional candidates
• Regular one-to-ones and performance reviews
• Bonus and progression opportunities
• The chance to work across a wide range of ecommerce and growth brands
• Access to performance feedback so you can see how your work is actually performing
• A supportive, ambitious team without unnecessary corporate nonsense
• A clear route into Senior Video Editor, Creative Strategist or Creative Lead positions
• Plenty of room to bring ideas, test things and help shape how we approach creative
• Quarterly team social events

Shortlisted candidates may be asked to complete a short paid editing task using supplied footage and a clear brief.
