Video Production & Social Media Assistant Job Summary
Cowgirl Media is a growing content company focused on creating short-form and long-form content across a variety of formats and platforms. We work with local businesses to create everything from social-first video and photography to longer brand stories, always built around strong ideas, sharp visuals and getting the shot. Our work can take us anywhere from dusty job sites and show homes to community attractions and polished brand shoots.
We are looking for a Video Production & Social Media Assistant to support our videographer on set and help keep everything organized behind the scenes. Some days you’ll have a camera in your hand.

You do not need years of industry experience. We care about solid camera basics, a steady hand, good creative instincts and a willingness to learn. You should be someone who shows up, pays attention and is ready to pitch in wherever the shoot needs you.
You will receive hands‑on, on‑the‑job training from an experienced videographer while building practical skills in camera operation, lighting, audio and professional content production. This is a paid, part‑time hybrid position. In‑person shoots take place throughout Spruce Grove, Stony Plain, Edmonton and surrounding areas.
File organization and social media scheduling may be completed remotely.
