Video Editor

We are a UK marketing agency in Manchester, and the biggest solar marketing agency in the country. You edit our social media ads: high production video ads for home improvement installers, shot by our own videographers on the client's real job sites and in their real showrooms. The role is fully remote, so work from anywhere, and you are paid per minute of edited footage.

You get the fun part. The footage arrives pre-cut: shot properly, selects already made, delivered in file sizes you can actually download and work with. Every job comes with a written brief, so you are never guessing what we want.

This is not caption-and-cut work. We build effects in After Effects on almost every ad:

• Solar panels that light up on a roof
• A window frame that draws itself on
• Text tracked to a surface
• Captions that float in 3D and move with the camera

If you cannot do that today, you will not pass our trial task. A quality assurance layer sits behind you and gives feedback pinned to the exact timecode. No vague “make it better”.

Full time here means 30 ads / month, minimum. When you work is up to you. How much you produce is not.

• 0130 finished ads / month is the floor, not the target.Our best editor delivers around 140 / month, which is what a strong editor on our stack actually looks like.
• 02A shoot's ads inside seven days.When a shoot lands we need its ads inside seven days, because the client's campaign goes live whether your ad is ready or not.
• 0324–48hourA 24 to 48 hour turnaround.Most of our ads have one.

If you are looking for something to fit around three other clients, we are not the right place. Say so now and save us both a week.

• 01Fluent in Premiere Pro / After Effects.Fluent, not learning. Rotoscoping, tracked text, time remapping, proper use of the speed graph.
• 02Internet that can take it.You will download high quality 4K footage every day and upload finished 4K files back. If your connection cannot do that reliably, nothing else on this list matters.
• 03Reliability.You do not need chasing. You do not go quiet when feedback is hard or when something has gone wrong.
• 04Spoken Englishgood enough to hold a conversation, because you will be talking to us on camera.
• 05Your own work, done by you.Not passed to somebody else with your name on it.

Paid in pounds. Our typical full-time editor makes £1,500 per month, some editors have hit record months as high as £5,264 ($7,000). A standard 1:15 ad pays about £17.50. You are paid per minute of finished video, with bonuses on top for variants of ads that perform well. Fast editors earn more here, because you are paid for what you deliver, not for how long you sat at the desk.

• 01£14per minuteStandard ad, full After Effects treatment:£14 per minute of finished video.
• 02£10A variant of an ad that already exists:£10, flat rate.
• 03£6Captioned video testimonial:£6, flat rate.
• 04£75flatThe first ad for a new client:£75 flat, whatever the length. That rate goes to our most trusted editors: it is the highest-trust job we have, and it is what you work towards.

Our record month for a single editor was £5,500. We show you the typical month and the record because most agencies quote you the record and call it normal.

• 01We pay properly, on time, every time.Paid directly from our business account for years, on a set date every month. Not in credits, not when the client pays us.
• 02A speedboat, not a freight ship.Ideas win because of how good they are, not because of where you sit on an org chart. A decision on Monday morning gets tested Monday afternoon and rolled out Tuesday.
• 0361x5xRoom to grow.We grew 61x in 2025 and are going for 5x this year. Fast company growth means fast personal growth, and there is a route to Tier 1, where you are trusted with the first ads a new client ever sees and paid more for it.
• 04A team that piles in.A great team culture of creatives from around the world who support one another all the time. Wins get celebrated loudly, and when someone is stuck, someone else jumps in.
