  • 👋 A bit about us

    Our mission is to make invisible illness visible. We build wearable technology for illness, not fitness, for the 100m+ people living with complex chronic illnesses like Long Covid, ME/CFS, POTS, fibromyalgia and EDS. We've grown from $1M to $10M in subscription ARR in two years, and reached 300,000+ users.

    Most people who need Visible have never heard of us. Ads on Meta, TikTok and YouTube are how most of them find us, so the stories we tell there really matter. For many of our members, it's the first time a brand has shown their life as it actually is.

    🚀 Why we're hiring this role

    Video is our best-performing format on every channel, especially real creators sharing how they live with their illness. One strong creator video can become a dozen ads: new openings, platform cuts, landscape versions for YouTube. Right now we can't edit fast enough to keep up, and we want to raise the quality, along with the volume.

    You'll join a small freelance creative team we're building: you, a designer with motion skills, and a paid ads copywriter, working the same days each week. We’re going to trial this set up for 3 months. You'll work alongside our Head of Marketing, our Brand Lead, our Influencer Manager and our paid performance agency.

    🧑‍💻 What you'll be doing

  • Editing creator footage into ads that perform: strong opening seconds, captions and pace that hold attention
  • Keeping winners fresh with new openings and variations
  • Cutting each story for its platform: Meta, TikTok (which needs more energy straight after the hook) and YouTube in landscape
  • Building mashups from our library of creator footage
  • Planning shoot days with us, so our videographer films footage that works in every format
  • Using AI tools to speed up reframes, captions and versions, and trying new formats
  • Reviewing results with us each week, and suggesting what to try next
  • 🙋 Who you are

  • You've edited short-form video ads for paid social, and your reel shows performance ads, not just brand films
  • You know what makes the first 3 seconds work, and how TikTok, Meta and YouTube differ
  • You're fast and organised, and can turn round several versions a week without the quality slipping
  • You use AI tools in your workflow, and know where they help and where they don't
  • You're curious about results, and have opinions on why an ad worked
  • You tell people's stories with care
  • ⭐ Nice to have, but not a showstopper

  • Lived experience of chronic illness, or knowledge of these conditions
  • Familiarity with health advertising rules (ASA/CAP in the UK, FDA and FTC in the US, Meta's health policies)
  • Motion graphics skills
  • Experience making landscape ads for YouTube
  • No one's a perfect match on paper. If you can see yourself in this role, apply.

    ✉️ How to apply

  • Apply through our short form, with your reel and three ads you've made: apply here
  • A 30-minute call with Tina, our Head of Marketing, and Jemma, our Influencer Manager
  • A short paid task (about 3 hours, paid as half a day)
  • A 30-minute call with Clem, our Chief of Staff
  • We aim to go from application to start within 2 weeks.
