About the job
Highrise is the leading performance marketing agency specialising in full-funnel growth for Direct-to-Consumer brands. We work with household names like Simba, AG1 and Grind, brands we have scaled from launch through to Series B or acquisition. Our team has successfully managed over £200m in direct response ad spend, taking brands from 0 to £100m+ in annual sales. Running and scaling brands is in our DNA.
Unlike other agencies, we do not just buy media. We combine data, platform innovation, tailored ad creative and CRO to deliver on our clients' business objectives. Highrise is the full funnel performance marketing agency.
We are a small, growing agency with big ambitions. Our clients' success is our success and we see ourselves as true growth partners, not vendors. If you want a role where your creative directly shapes the trajectory of ambitious D2C brands, work alongside people who elevate each other, and see the real impact of your work every day, Highrise is the place for you.
THE ROLE
As a Performance Video Editor at Highrise, you will create performance creative that is built to convert, not just to look good. You will edit short and long-form video ads for Meta (Facebook and Instagram), TikTok and YouTube, lean heavily on AI tooling to produce assets at speed, and work side by side with our Creative Strategists and Media Buyers to turn ideas into ads that win. This is a hands-on role for someone who is motivated, ambitious and genuinely excited about where AI is taking creative, with clear opportunities to grow into Creative Strategy, Team Lead or Senior specialist roles as you prove yourself.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Performance Creative
- Edit engaging short and long-form (DTC) video ads for Meta, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube, built around the metrics that matter and not just aesthetics.
- Produce UGC, VSL and short, TikTok-style video at the pace performance testing demands.
- Take creative concepts from brief through to a finished, ready-to-launch ad.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
AI and Tooling
- Generate and integrate AI-driven video assets, including AI avatars, voiceovers and visuals.
- Use AI tools such as ElevenLabs (and others) to speed up production without compromising on quality.
- Use Foreplay and similar platforms to research, source and organise reference and inspiration that sharpens the creative.
Collaboration and Delivery
- Work closely with Creative Strategists and Media Buyers to make sure every asset is set up to perform.
- Source and curate relevant content across social platforms and adapt it for paid campaigns.
- Own video quality from start to finish and deliver projects on time, every time.
SKILLS & EXPERIENCE
- Minimum 1-4 years of hands-on experience with Adobe Premiere Pro (or an equivalent editing suite).
- A genuine interest in performance creative and a desire to grow within performance marketing, with a clear understanding that the goal is results, not just a polished edit.
- Fundamentals with AI creative tools such as ElevenLabs, OpenArt, Claude, Higgsfield, Artlist, and a keenness to keep learning new ones.
- Familiarity with paid social ad formats across Meta, TikTok and YouTube, including UGC, VSL and short-form.
- Excellent written and spoken English.
- Bonus: experience with creative research tools like Foreplay, or working with D2C and eCommerce brands.
MINDSET & APPROACH
- Keen on AI. You are excited by AI creative tools and actively look for ways to use them to produce better work, faster. You see AI as an advantage, not a threat.
- Results over Aesthetics. You care how an ad looks, but you care more about whether it performs. You will happily kill a beautiful edit if the data says another approach wins.
- Proactive Ownership. You take a project from brief to finished ad and see it through. You do not wait to be directed, you spot what needs doing and make it happen.
- Motivated and Ambitious. You bring real drive and want to grow. You are hungry to take on more and to progress towards Creative Strategy, Team Lead or Senior roles over time.
- Collaborative by Nature. You thrive working alongside Strategists and Media Buyers, share openly, and are motivated by getting the team and the project over the line together.
