Glendale, CA, USA (Remote)
About the job
About Us:
Posh Peanut is a fast growing, design obsessed baby and kids brand built for the modern, scroll happy parent. We are a social first, digitally native company that moves fast, experiments boldly, and attracts A-talent who want to build something innovative, culturally relevant, and genuinely loved.
Role:
We’re looking for a Freelance Performance Marketing & Social Video Editor who knows how to turn raw footage into ads that stop the scroll and drive action. This role sits at the intersection of creative and performance, editing fast, iterating smarter, and using results to make every cut sharper than the last.
You’ll work closely with creative strategists, paid media buyers, designers, and the brand team to produce short form, platform native video for paid social and organic channels. If you obsess over the first three seconds, think in hooks, and love testing what actually converts, you’ll thrive here.
What You’ll Do:
- Create platform native content for Meta, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and emerging channels, optimized by format, length, and audience behavior
- Edit footage including studio shoots, UGC, influencer and creator content, and existing assets into high performing short form videos designed for paid social and digital distribution
- Review large volumes of creator and influencer footage and apply strong creative judgment to identify the best moments, angles, and performances to build compelling ads
- Identify and amplify the strongest moments in footage to build compelling hooks and clear, conversion driven narratives
- Add captions, motion, sound design, and visual treatments that feel organic to each platform while staying on brand
- Apply learnings from ad results to continuously improve pacing, structure, and creative approach
- Follow strict brand guidelines to ensure a consistent visual aesthetic and tone of voice across all edits, maintaining cohesion across campaigns
- Stay current on social trends, platform updates, and new video formats, and proactively bring ideas forward
What You’ll Bring:
- Proven experience editing short form video for paid social or performance driven campaigns
- Strong instincts for pacing, structure, and storytelling built for attention and action, not long form narrative
- Fluency in modern editing tools such as Premiere Pro, After Effects, Final Cut, CapCut, or similar
- Comfort working with basic motion graphics, text animation, and sound design
- A solid understanding of social platform specifications, creative best practices, and what drives engagement and conversion
- A performance mindset, curiosity around what works, why it works, and how to make the next version better
- Clear communicator who collaborates well across creative and marketing teams
- Highly organized with strong habits around asset management and deadlines
- Bonus points for experience with advanced motion, animation, AI powered editing tools, or emerging creative technology
Remote friendly, with occasional collaboration days in our Glendale, CA office as needed.
