Job Description

About Cousin Labs

Cousin Labs is a creator-led growth agency that builds creative engines for consumer brands. We work with some of the fastest-growing companies in health, wellness, tech, and consumer services, delivering high-impact creative rooted in strategic insights, platform-native creative, and narrative craft.

About the Role

We’re looking to expand our roster of video editors who specialize in paid social and UGC-style editing.

This is a fast-paced, detail-driven role ideal for editors who know what performs on Meta, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts—and can cut engaging narratives that stop the scroll. You’ll be part of a nimble team working closely with producers, strategists, and creators to bring raw footage to life with tight storytelling, clever visual cues, and performance in mind.

We’re not just making pretty edits. We’re making content that converts. Editors who succeed in this role combine a strong creative POV with the ability to execute quickly, iterate based on feedback, and adapt to platform trends and client needs.

What You'll Do

Editing & Execution

  • Edit 15–45 second paid social ads using UGC, branded assets, and motion graphics.
  • Incorporate platform-native elements — captions, hooks, visual rhythm, and trending audio — to maximize engagement and retention.
  • Execute multiple variations per concept to test different intros, pacing, and CTAs.

Creative Collaboration

  • Partner with strategists and producers to interpret briefs and translate ideas into high-performing edits.
  • Incorporate internal and client feedback across multiple rounds of revisions with professionalism and clarity.
  • Ensure files are properly organized, named, and delivered on schedule.

Optimization & Adaptation

  • Stay current on platform trends, meme formats, editing patterns, and new AI workflows.
  • Iterate on creative direction based on data insights, audience feedback, and campaign performance.
  • Maintain quality and consistency across multiple clients and brands simultaneously.

What You'll Bring

  • 3+ years of editing experience with a strong focus on social-first storytelling.
  • Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro (or equivalent) with strong sense of pacing, composition, and tone.
  • Familiarity with AI video tools like Runway, Veo, and more; willingness to experiment with emerging workflows.
  • Deep understanding of paid social ad structure — hook, problem, solution, CTA.
  • Ability to work independently, manage multiple deadlines, and communicate clearly in remote environments.
  • A growth mindset: open to feedback, eager to learn, and driven to improve performance through iteration.

Logistics

  • Type: Freelance, project-based (with potential for ongoing work)
  • Location: Remote (U.S. preferred)
  • Availability: Must be responsive to Slack/email and able to meet deadlines within 10 AM–5 PM ET working hours when needed
  • Reports To: Producer / Creative Director
  • Rate : $60-$75/hr depending on experience

HOW TO APPLY: Please send your reel featuring Paid Social Ads to info@cousinlabs.com
