- Cross-Regional Coverage: Travel approximately once per month to Toronto, Ottawa or Quebec City to capture content from projects and teams.
- Analytics & Reporting: Monitor social media performance and provide monthly insights and recommendations to improve engagement and reach.
- Brand Representation: Maintain a polished, professional presence when working with executives, clients, partners and trades on active construction sites.
What We're Looking For
- 5+ years of professional experience in video production, photography and content creation, ideally within construction, real estate, architecture, engineering or a corporate B2B environment.
- A strong portfolio demonstrating high-quality video production, photography and storytelling.
- Advanced proficiency with professional cameras, lighting, audio and stabilization equipment.
- Strong editing and post-production skills using Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Lightroom, Photoshop or similar tools.
- Experience with motion graphics, AI-assisted editing and advanced post-production techniques is an asset.
- Proven ability to plan, manage and grow professional social media accounts, particularly on LinkedIn and Instagram.
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, with the confidence to direct and film executives, clients and other stakeholders.
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to independently manage production schedules and weekly deliverables.
- Comfort working outdoors and filming on active construction sites throughout the year.
- A valid driver's licence and willingness to travel approximately once per month.
- Bilingualism in English and French is a significant asset, particularly for content development and communication with teams and stakeholders across Quebec and Ontario.
- Transport Canada drone certification is an asset, or willingness to obtain certification with employer-supported training.
- A degree or diploma in film, photography, communications, marketing or a related field is an asset.
