<p><br></p>
<p><span>Made In is looking for a contract video editor to join our Brand Design team and help us supercharge our paid ads creative.</span></p>
<p><span><br>We’re looking for a nimble, resourceful editor who understands the world of performance, someone who knows what makes people stop scrolling <span>and</span> how to make it feel elevated. You’ll be embedded in the Brand Design team, working closely with Creative and Growth Marketing to deliver high-performing video ads across Meta, YouTube, TikTok, and more.</span></p>
<p><br></p>
<p><span>You’ll work on a range of creative, from polished cutdowns to lo-fi UGC, and bring it all to life with motion, sound, and smart editing. This role requires someone who’s scrappy, self-starting, and doesn’t need a folder of perfectly labeled assets to make great work.
We move fast, we’re not always tidy, and we need someone with a bias towards action to help us get things made. </span></p>

<li><span>Source and mix music, voiceover, and SFX with a high bar for brand tone</span></li>
<li><span>Collaborate closely with our Growth team on asset testing and iteration</span></li>
<li><span>Work within ClickUp to manage timelines, tasks, and feedback cycles efficiently</span></li>
<li><span>Stay sharp on best practices for each platform, and think proactively about performance</span></li>

<li><span>Ability to transform UGC or raw footage into polished, high-performing ad units</span></li>
<li><span>Strong instincts for design, timing, rhythm, and brand voice</span></li>
<li><span>A collaborative, feedback-driven approach — and comfort moving quickly within a creative process</span></li>
<li><span>A strong portfolio or reel that shows both creative thinking and performance-focused work</span></li>
