About the role

Writexperts partners with brands to turn strategy into scroll-stopping video. We’re expanding our bench with editors and ad creators who can shape raw footage into persuasive stories optimized for each platform. Every project at Writexperts receives an editor-led quality check before final delivery, plus an originality review of all assets; scripts, captions, and text elements are subject to a plagiarism check to protect brand safety.

 

Specialties we’re hiring for

Short-form social (Reels/TikTok/Shorts); YouTube long-form; performance ads for Meta/YouTube/TikTok; motion graphics & 2D animation; product demos & tutorials; corporate explainers; event highlights; testimonials & case videos; UGC-style ads; trailers & teasers; color grading; sound design & mixing; subtitles/captions; script-to-screen (concepting, scripting, storyboarding).

 

What you’ll do

  • Translate briefs and brand kits into compelling cuts with strong hooks and pacing.

  • Edit in Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or DaVinci; add motion GFX (After Effects or similar).

  • Optimize for platform specs, ratios, durations, and accessibility (captions, safe areas).

  • Polish with color correction, audio cleanup/mixing, music/SFX licensing, and QC passes.

  • Version for A/B tests, localizations, and placements; deliver masters and edit files.

  • Maintain brand consistency and metadata; manage assets securely and compliantly.

  • Communicate proactively with PMs, designers, and copywriters; incorporate feedback fast.

 

What you’ll need

  • A standout reel with measurable results (CTR, watch-time, conversions where available).

  • 3+ years’ professional editing/ads experience, or an equivalent body of client work.

  • Fluency in narrative structure, ad psychology, and retention tactics.

  • Strong technical rigor (codecs, bitrates, loudness, color, exports) and file hygiene.

  • Proficiency in Adobe CC/DaVinci; bonus: 3D/illustration, LUT creation, or VFX cleanup.

  • Nice to have: bilingual English/French; domain expertise (tech, finance, healthcare, education, NGO, e-commerce).

 

Assessment & quality assurance

Shortlisted candidates may complete MCQs on editing fundamentals, platform specs, and ad best practices, as well as writing tests (hooks, captions, CTAs) when necessary. A short practical edit may be requested. On live projects, we run two-step QA: (1) editorial/technical quality review for accuracy, clarity, brand fit, and export compliance; (2) plagiarism check for written elements and originality/licensing verification for media assets prior to final delivery.

What we offer

  • Clear briefs, brand kits, templates, and editorial support.

  • Fair, transparent milestones with prompt payment on approval.

  • Flexible remote work, steady project flow, and long-term matches.

  • Growth paths to Lead Editor, Motion Designer, or Performance Creative.
