DTC Performance Video Editor AI-First (Freelance)

<p>We are agencro, a CRO and direct-response agency for e-commerce brands: advertorials, landing pages, online shops and email for our clients - plus our own brands, where we also run paid ads ourselves.</p> <p>We work AI-first: AI produces the volume, a small team with real taste directs and finishes it. Small remote team, short paths, your work goes live fast.</p> <p>The ads for our own brands and the visuals on our client pages win or lose on creative: hooks, retention, clarity. Right now that sits with us. We want one person who owns moving image.</p> <p>This is not a "make it look nice" editing role. Every ad and every graphic you ship exists to convert.</p> <h2>Tasks</h2> <ul> <li><strong>Edit performance video ads for our own brands:</strong> UGC ads, AI-generated creatives, VSL-style videos and testimonial cuts for Meta, TikTok and paid social - going into real spend.</li> <li><strong>Build strong hooks:</strong> retention-focused edits, platform-native pacing, captions and variants of the first three seconds.</li> <li><strong>Motion and conversion graphics for client projects:</strong> animated sections, GIFs and conversion visuals for advertorials, online shops, landing pages and email.</li> <li><strong>Produce with AI as the engine:</strong> AI video and image tools (e.g. Kling, Runway, Nano Banana, Veo or similar) are your primary production line for footage, b-roll and variants.</li> <li><strong>Finish with craft:</strong> you know when AI output is not good enough and you fix it - cut, timing, sound, brand-fit (Premiere/After Effects or equivalent).</li> </ul> <h2>Requirements</h2> <p><strong>What winning looks like</strong></p> <ul> <li>Your creatives perform in real campaigns.</li> <li>Hook Rate, CTR, CPA and watch time move because of your work.</li> <li>Fast turnaround and clean iteration cycles: brief in, first cut out, feedback, ship.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Who we're NOT looking for</strong></p> <ul> <li>Brand-awareness editors. Our ads and pages have to convert.</li> <li>AI sceptics. AI tools are the production engine here, not a gimmick.</li> <li>People who need a lot of hand-holding. You get a brief and an angle, then you own it.</li> <li>Slow perfectionists. We iterate in live campaigns.</li> </ul> <p><strong>Who we ARE looking for</strong></p> <ul> <li>You understand direct-response video: hooks, retention, pacing, conversion psychology.</li> <li>You already produce with AI video tools and keep up with the toolset.</li> <li>You have real craft on top: Premiere Pro + After Effects or equivalent, used to elevate AI output.</li> <li>DTC/e-commerce creative experience is a plus.</li> <li>Fast, reliable, self-managing, proactive communicator.</li> </ul> <h2>Benefits</h2> <p>In return for these skills, you'll work in a team of young, driven people, structure your day the way you want, work from wherever you want, and get challenged every single day.</p> <p>You'll get to see a wide range of e-commerce projects - from health and beauty to fitness and fashion - and gain an incredibly deep look into the world of online marketing.</p> <p>Instead of sitting on one thing for weeks, your tasks change from day to day, so you'll never get bored.
