JOB OVERVIEW

We're a Canadian marketing agency (LYNKS Marketing) looking for a highly skilled video editor who specialises in cinematic, high-converting video advertisements. This is not a social media content role. This is paid advertising for luxury real estate clients in Toronto, Canada.

If you make cheesy videos, this is not the role for you. If you understand retention hooks, luxury aesthetics, and what it takes to stop someone's scroll in the first 2 seconds — read on.

What You'll Be Doing
? Edit raw talking-head footage into polished, cinematic video ads (30–120 seconds)
? Source and integrate AI-generated B-roll using tools like Higgsfield, Runway, Kling, or Veo
? Design and animate on-screen text overlays, lower thirds, offer cards, and CTA graphics
? Build motion graphics — rolling number counters, stat reveals, urgency animations
? Colour grade footage to match a luxury brand palette (hex codes provided)
? Cut scroll-stopping hooks that land in the first 1.5–2 seconds
? Export in multiple formats: 16:9, 9:16 (Reels/Stories), and 1:1
? Integrate background music that complements soft-spoken, premium talent
? Deliver Meta-ready exports ---------- for Facebook and Instagram ads

You Must Have
? A portfolio that includes actual paid ad creative — not just YouTube vlogs or lifestyle content
? Deep understanding of retention hooks and why the first 2 seconds make or break an ad
? Experience editing for luxury, high-end, or premium clientele
? Strong command of Final Cut Pro and/or Adobe Premiere Pro
? Motion graphics experience — Apple Motion, After Effects, or equivalent
? Strong English communication skills
? Reliable setup and ability to meet deadlines independently

Big Advantages
? Experience with AI video tools — Higgsfield, Runway, Kling, Veo, Sora
? Portfolio with documented ad performance results
? Experience producing content for Canadian or North American markets

The Work
Our current project is a 5-video ad campaign for a luxury Toronto real estate brokerage celebrating their 20th anniversary. Each video needs cinematic B-roll, on-brand text overlays, a rolling money counter animation, background music, and multi-format exports. More projects follow immediately after.

Structure
? Remote contract — per project or monthly retainer
? Flexible hours — we care about output, not when you work
? Async communication via Slack
? Direct collaboration with the agency founder

To Apply
Send the following to ----------

Portfolio or showreel link
3–5 sentences on why you're the right fit for luxury ad creative specifically
Your rate expectation
Your software stack
The one piece of work from your portfolio that best shows your understanding of hooks and high-converting ads
