Content Producer & Video Editor

4-Month Contract (Possibility of Extending to Full-Time)| Toronto (Occasional Travel)

Salary Range: $50–$65K CAD, based on experience

437 is looking for a Content Producer & Video Editor to develop and execute a growing slate of original video content. This is a hands-on creative role that blends filming, editing, storytelling, and production management. You'll work closely with a founder and executive, capturing both planned and spontaneous moments and turning them into long- and short-form content people actually want to watch.

This isn't corporate content, and it isn't pointing a camera and documenting what happens. We're looking for someone who knows the difference between capturing a moment and finding the story within it. The work should feel elevated but natural, culturally relevant without chasing trends, and distinctive enough that it couldn't have been made for anyone else.

Responsibilities

Content Production

• Produce, film, and edit recurring long- and short-form video content
• Capture planned and candid moments across work, travel, events, and day-to-day life
• Recognize compelling stories as they unfold, and know when to observe, when to ask another question, and when to keep rolling
• Provide light direction on set so the person being filmed feels natural, not scripted
• Capture the details and transitional moments that make storytelling feel immersive

Editing & Storytelling

• Own the edit from raw footage through final delivery
• Find the strongest narrative within a larger body of footage
• Build hooks, pacing, structure, voiceover, music, graphics, and captions
• Create platform-specific versions and cutdowns for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and beyond
• Maintain an elevated visual standard without the work feeling overly polished
• Collaborate with outside editors or specialists when additional support is needed

Creative Development

• Stay closely attuned to culture, creators, media, and evolving content formats
• Bring proactive ideas forward rather than waiting for assignments
• Spot content opportunities in upcoming schedules, travel, events, and everyday moments
• Prepare concepts, shot lists, interview prompts, and production plans as needed

Planning & Production

• Translate a fast-moving schedule into a realistic filming and publishing plan
• Decide what's worth capturing and what isn't
• Manage timelines, approvals, revisions, exports, and publishing readiness
• Maintain an organized production calendar and content pipeline
• Minimize the project management required from the person you're supporting

Content Library & Archiving

• Consolidate existing footage across phones, cloud storage, hard drives, and shared folders into one searchable system
• Build a clear folder structure and naming convention for new and archival assets
• Surface relevant historical footage for future storytelling

Qualifications

• An emerging videographer, editor, filmmaker, or content producer with strong creative instincts and a portfolio to show for it
• Comfortable operating a camera and editing your own footage with a lean setup
• Proficient in Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or similar, with a working understanding of lighting, audio, and file management
• Strong instincts for hooks, pacing, narrative, and audience retention
• Deeply familiar with YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and creator-led storytelling
• Highly organized and proactive, and able to take projects from idea to delivery without significant oversight
• Discreet and trustworthy with confidential business and personal information
• Flexible to travel or work outside traditional hours when an important moment is happening
• Bonus if you have experience in YouTube, documentary-style, or editorial content, or an interest in fashion, wellness, lifestyle, and business

We care more about taste, initiative, and your ability to capture something real than years on a résumé. Formal film or media education is welcome but not required.
