Video Editor - Contract

The job:
We make work for UNICEF, TD, Canada Soccer, Pizza Hut, Terry Fox Foundation, Canadian Blood Services, Mattel, Samsung. We make great work. Most people see it on a phone, for about three seconds. Your job is to earn the fourth.

You cut for the scroll. Social, OLV, influencer, branded content. You know a six-second bumper and a 30-second pre-roll are different crafts, and you know a creator’s footage needs a different hand than a polished shoot.

This is a contract role.

What you’ll actually do:

• Edit digital and social content across every platform and placement
• Cut OLVs, pre-roll and bumpers. Hook early, land the brand, respect the runtime
• Shape influencer and creator footage into content that works for the brand and still sounds like the creator
• Build versions. Multiple lengths, ratios and cutdowns, without losing the idea
• Work directly with creatives and producers on pacing, structure and story
• Juggle multiple jobs and edits at once. Keep your own priorities straight, flag what’s at risk, hit your dates
• Own your files, exports, specs and timelines. No chasing
• Use AI where it helps. Faster assembly, transcription, cleanup, versioning. So more of your time goes to the craft

What you need:

• 3+ years experience. Agency, production house, in-house or creator side, we don’t care
• Real editorial instinct. You can find the moment in hours of footage and cut everything else
• Fluency in platform behaviour. You know what works on TikTok, Reels, YouTube and why
• Premiere Pro, plus enough After Effects and Photoshop to get things done
• Self-organized. You run several edits at once without needing someone to manage your day
• Curiosity about AI tools and the judgment to know where they speed things up and where human taste still has to make the call
• A killer eye, sense of style, and taste in reference
• An ear. You can cut to music and you know when a track is doing the work for you
• You know your specs. Formats, aspect ratios, transcoding, delivery to platforms and partners
• A reel that shows range, not one style repeated

Nice to have:

• Motion graphics and design skills. Kinetic type, simple animation, clean supers. If you can make a cut move without handing it off, that’s a big plus
• Typographic judgment. Most social content fails on type, not footage

How we work:

Contract. Hybrid. Our office is in Toronto. We move fast and we’re not stupid about it.
