About TAKEOFF
TAKEOFF Marketing Group is a Montreal-based marketing agency producing content for clients across food, hospitality, construction, home services, and other industries.
We’re looking for an experienced video editor who specializes in short-form social media content and paid ad creatives. You should bring strong editing skills, a sharp eye for design, and an understanding of what makes people stop scrolling, keep watching, and take action.
About the role
You’ll transform raw footage and creative briefs into polished videos for our clients’ organic social channels and paid advertising campaigns.
We’re looking for someone who understands how footage selection, pacing, typography, music, and sound work together. You should be comfortable developing a distinct editing style for each brand and making creative decisions independently.
Key responsibilities
• Edit engaging short-form videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube Shorts.
• Edit paid ad creatives with clear hooks, messaging, and calls to action.
• Create variations of ad creatives to test different openings, pacing, on-screen text, and calls to action.
• Build strong hooks and structure each video to maintain attention and deliver a clear message.
• Work with interviews, talking-head footage, product shots, and B-roll.
• Apply typography, subtitles, graphic elements, and transitions with a consistent sense of style.
• Adapt each edit to the client’s brand identity, audience, and campaign objectives.
• Handle colour correction, audio cleanup, music selection, and sound design.
• Stay current with social media formats and editing techniques, using trends when they suit the brand.
• Collaborate with our content and production team and use creative feedback and campaign results to improve future edits.
• Manage multiple edits, apply feedback accurately, and meet agreed deadlines.
• Maintain organized project files and prepare exports for each platform and ad placement.
What we’re looking for
• Proven professional experience editing short-form social media content and paid video ads.
• A strong portfolio demonstrating storytelling, pacing, typography, and visual consistency.
• Proficiency in CapCut or Adobe Premiere Pro.
• Strong judgment around music, sound effects, transitions, and on-screen text.
• An understanding of audience retention and how editing supports both engagement and conversion.
• The ability to adapt to different brands rather than applying the same style to every client.
• Bilingual English and French, with the ability to understand dialogue and produce accurate subtitles in both languages.
• The ability to work independently, communicate clearly, and manage competing deadlines.
• Your own editing computer and reliable internet access.
• Availability for a full-time remote role starting as soon as possible.
Experience working in a marketing agency, motion graphics skills, and familiarity with AI-assisted editing tools are advantages.
How to apply
Submit your application with a link to your portfolio. Include relevant short-form social media videos and paid ad creatives that demonstrate your editing, typography, brand styling, and storytelling.
Please ensure your portfolio is accessible without requesting permission and clearly identifies work you personally edited.
