About This Role

We’re looking for a Performance Video Manager to own the end-to-end production of UGC-style video ads across all of our paid social channels. You’ll sit at the intersection of creative and performance — concepting and producing content that’s built to convert, not just look good. This role reports to the Head of Performance and will manage a roster of external creators and editors.

What You’ll Do

• Concept and write briefs for UGC video ads across Meta, TikTok, Snapchat, YouTube, and other paid social channels, with a strong bias toward formats that drive performance

• Source, manage, and direct UGC creators — giving clear creative direction and iterating quickly based on what’s working

• Own the post-production process, working closely with editors to take raw footage from brief to final asset

• Partner with the performance team to analyze creative data, identify winning patterns, and feed those insights back into the concepting process

• Build and manage a high-output content pipeline that can consistently produce and test new creative at scale

What We’re Looking For

• 4+ years of experience in video production, content creation, or creative strategy in a performance marketing context

• Hands-on experience producing UGC-style content for paid social — you know what makes a thumb-stopping hook and why a certain format works on Meta vs. TikTok

• Experience managing freelance creators and editors, with strong communication and organizational skills

• Comfortable working with performance data to inform creative decisions — you don’t need to be an analyst, but you can read a creative report and know what to do with it

• Must be in NYC working in-office 5 days per week

Nice-to-Haves

• Experience promoting consumer apps

• Background in both concepting and buying — familiarity with how paid social campaigns are structured and optimized

• Existing network of UGC creators you can tap quickly

• Experience with international or multilingual creative production

Benefits

• Competitive salary & equity

• Unlimited PTO

• Full Health, Vision, & Dental coverage

• 401k match

• Hardware setup — new MacBook Pro, big display, & accessories
