Freelance Video Editor

About Mango Media

Mango Media is a performance-focused content production agency. We help brands scale their paid socials beyond €1M/mo with creatives that actually convert. We focus on ads for Meta, TikTok and other paid social platforms for brands that measure success in CPA and ROAS, not just impressions. We are small but ambitious, and we are building the operational backbone that lets a small team punch above its weight.

About this role

You will edit short-form video ads from raw UGC footage and creator content. You will cut for impact, structure videos around proven ad frameworks, and ship variations fast. You will work with our strategists and account managers to turn briefs into ads that hit the metrics clients care about.

- Edit UGC and creator-led ads. Cut vertical video for Meta and TikTok. Hook-first thinking. Sound design and pacing that holds attention.
- Build ad variations. Take winning concepts and produce hook variations, CTA tests and length cuts to keep accounts fresh.
- On-screen text and captions. Clean, brand-aligned text overlays. Burn-in captions that read well at low volume.
- Light motion graphics. Logo stings, animated text, simple product reveals.
- Sourcing and stitching. Pull from creator footage, b-roll libraries and product assets. Make a coherent ad out of disparate inputs.
- Iteration.



Take feedback from creative leads and turn it around quickly. Multiple rounds are normal.

What we are looking for

- Two or more years editing short-form video for paid social. Portfolio must include UGC-style ads, not just brand films or YouTube content.
- Strong understanding of ad mechanics: hooks, retention, CTAs, problem-solution framing, social proof.
- Fluent in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve. After Effects for motion work is a plus.
- Sharp eye for pacing, music and sound design. You know how to make a 15-second ad feel inevitable.
- Understands platform specs and what each platform rewards.
- Self-managed. You hit deadlines without being chased.
- English fluent. Dutch adds strong points.

Nice to have

- Experience editing for DTC, ecommerce or app brands.
- Comfortable reading ad performance data and applying it to your edits.
- Familiarity with creator briefs and how to direct UGC creators for raw footage that edits well.

The setup

- Freelance with possibility of moving to full time depending on performance.
- Fully remote. European time-zone overlap preferred.
- Steady volume of work for the right editor.
