Edit short-for
Follow our scripts and per-client brand kits (fonts, colours, logo animations, end cards)
Strong hooks in the first 3 seconds, tight pacing, captions on everything
Produce multiple variations of winning ads for creative testing
Colour correct mixed footage (phone-shot dealership clips vary in quality)
Turn edits around reliably: standard delivery within 24 to 48 hours of receiving footage
Take proofing feedback and revise fast
You're a fit if you have:
2+ years editing short-form ad or social content (Premiere Pro, CapCut Pro, or DaVinci)
A portfolio with short-form vertical ads (automotive or local business content is a bonus)
Caption and motion graphics basics (animated text, logo stings, end cards)
Reliable internet, backup power plan, and 6+ hours overlap with NZ business hours
Fluent English for feedback and Slack communication
Pay and benefits: $600 to $800 USD/month based on skill, 13th month pay, HMO allowance after probation, internet allowance. Long-term full-time role with volume growing as we add clients.
HOW TO APPLY (read carefully, this is the test): Send exactly two things and nothing else:
A link to your portfolio or 3 to 5 of your best short-form edits
One sentence requesting the paid-attention test edit: "Please send me the test editing task."
That's it. Do not send a cover letter. Applications that do not request the test task will not be reviewed. If you are not willing to complete a short test edit, please do not apply.
