JOB OVERVIEW

proot Clean is hiring a video editor who can make DTC ads that actually sell- not just look pretty.

You'll take raw creator footage, scripts, product B-roll, and briefs and turn them into scroll-stopping, thumb-stopping Facebook & Instagram ads that drive real purchases. If you've got an eye for hooks, pacing, and what makes people stop mid-scroll, we want to see your work.

This is NOT the role for you if: your background is mainly YouTube, corporate videos, weddings, or cinematic storytelling. We move fast, test constantly, and care about performance over polish.

You must have
- Strong Adobe Premiere Pro skills
- Real experience editing Facebook / Meta ads
- 1+ year editing ads for DTC/ecommerce brands or agencies
- A portfolio full of direct-response ads (not just "nice" videos)
- Sharp instincts for hooks, pacing, captions, B-roll, product demos, pattern interrupts, and retention
- Strong English communication and the ability to move fast on feedback

What you'll do
- Edit short-form DTC ads for Meta
- Turn raw creator footage into high-converting creative
- Find strong hooks and best moments from footage
- Add captions, B-roll, graphics, sound design, and pattern interrupts
- Create new iterations of winning ads
- Use performance feedback to improve future creative
- Work with our creative strategists through ---------- and ClickUp
- We produce a high volume of paid-social creative, so this is a great fit for someone who wants to get exceptionally good at performance advertising.

We produce a high volume of paid-social creative. If you want to get exceptionally good, fast, at performance advertising, this is the place to do it.

Compensation
- Base: $1,800 + USD/month Negotiable based on region
- Performance Bonus: You'll work in a creative pod with 1 strategist and 3–4 editors. When creative from your pod generates qualifying ad spend, the team earns additional compensation.
- Quarterly Bonus: Up to $500 for exceptional ownership, consistency, and contribution.

This is a full-time role, and we ask that Uproot Clean be your only project.

Schedule
Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–6:00 PM Eastern Time
Team meeting Thursdays at 10:00 AM ET

Hiring Process
- Bryq assessment
- $25 paid editing trial - completed within 24 hours
- Recruiter Interview
- Hiring Interview
- CEO Interview
- Offer

How to Apply
Start your application with:
I EDIT DTC ADS

Then send:
1. Years of professional editing experience
2. Years editing specifically for DTC/ecommerce
3. Your 3 best Facebook/Instagram ads you've personally edited- specifically any direct response ones
4. What % of your work is done in Premiere Pro?
5. One ad you edited that performed well and why you think it worked
6. Can you complete a $25 paid trial within 24 hours?
7. Can you work 9 AM–6 PM Eastern, Monday–Friday?

Do not send a general portfolio. We want to see your best performance ads.

We’re looking for editors who think:
Not just “Does this look good?” — but “Will this sell?”
