Performance Video Editor

At Surfshark, video is one of our strongest growth drivers. It's how we grab attention in a crowded feed, earn the click, and connect with millions of people worldwide. From scroll-stopping Meta ads to high-performing YouTube content, our video team turns complex cybersecurity topics into content that's engaging, human, and built to convert.

We're looking for a Performance Video Editor who can take a strong idea and turn it into a winning ad through efficient storytelling, technical mastery, and a hands-on command of AI generation tools. If you care about hooks, pacing, and love pushing what AI can do in an edit, we'd love to meet you.

• Own the edit from brief to final export, building every ad on a clear narrative structure that's built to perform;
• Edit paid video across Meta and YouTube, from UGC and creator-style ads to AI-generated footage, turning raw generations into coherent final renders;
• Work daily with copywriters, designers, and creative strategists to pitch and test new visual concepts and ad iterations;
• Craft the first three seconds, the rhythm, and the sound design that stop the scroll and hold attention, then iterate on winning creatives based on the metrics that matter;
• Lead AI-powered video innovation by building a workflow that speeds up iteration and raises our creative win rate.

• A strong command of Adobe Premiere Pro, plus working proficiency in After Effects for motion graphics and light animation;
• Hands-on experience with AI video tools, and a real curiosity about platform updates, creative trends, and what competitors are doing in the feed;
• A portfolio that shows range - editing paid ads for Meta and/or YouTube, and a clear sense of what drives creative performance on each;
• Great communication and a proactive, collaborative attitude when the feedback loop moves quickly.
