Job Overview
We’re looking for a Video Editor / Creative Designer who loves making great content and has the range to move between video editing, motion graphics and graphic design.
This is a hands-on creative role. One day you might be editing a brand video or creating motion graphics. The next you could be developing social content, designing a presentation, building an infographic or experimenting with generative AI to create something entirely new.
You’ll work closely with our creative, strategy, production and account teams to take projects from brief and concept through to polished, finished work.
We’re looking for someone who is technically strong but also brings ideas to the table. Someone who can work within established brand guidelines when needed, but who is equally comfortable when the brief is simply a script, a few visual cues and a creative challenge to solve.
About Agency 5S
Agency 5S is a boutique strategic and creative marketing agency built for complex businesses. We turn complex challenges into clear strategies, compelling content and creative, and coordinated market action. We bring together research, strategy, storytelling, content, production and activation, giving clients both the thinking and the execution needed to move from insight to measurable results.
With deep experience in complex B2B environments, we understand long buying cycles, multiple decision-makers and technical products, and know how to make them easier for markets to understand, trust and buy.
What You’ll Do
Video Editing & Motion
- Edit video for client campaigns, social content, corporate communications and digital platforms.
- Create motion graphics, animated typography and visual effects in Adobe After Effects.
- Bring together live-action footage, graphics, animation, photography, stock, audio and AI-generated assets.
- Turn master creative into social cutdowns, alternate formats, aspect ratios and platform-specific versions.
- Add music, voiceover, sound design, graphics and effects to create polished finished content.
- Prepare and deliver final files for social, web, client and broadcast requirements.
- Create captions and subtitles and support English/French versioning as required.
Creative & Graphic Design
- Design social content, digital creative, presentations, infographics, advertising and marketing materials.
- Create print and large-format materials for events, conferences and promotional programs.
- Work confidently with typography, colour, imagery and layout.
- Bring established brands to life while also developing new visual directions when the opportunity calls for it.
- Create pitch presentations, case studies, sizzle reels and Agency 5S marketing materials.
Generative AI & Emerging Creative Tools
- Use generative AI as part of everyday creative development and production.
- Experiment with image and video generation tools such as Magnific and other emerging platforms.
- Combine AI-generated assets with live action, motion graphics, photography and traditional design.
- Use AI assistants such as Claude to support creative and production workflows.
- Explore new tools and identify practical ways to make our creative work better, faster and more ambitious.
- Apply good judgment around quality, accuracy, brand fit, usage rights and responsible AI use.
You'll Also Be Part of the Creative Process
You'll have opportunities to
- Participate in brainstorming and concept development.
- Contribute ideas for scripts, storyboards and visual approaches.
- Collaborate with creative directors, strategists, project managers and account teams.
- Contribute to pitches and creative presentations.
- Present and explain your thinking to colleagues and, at times, clients.
- Help us continuously raise the bar on the creative work we produce.

You'll ideally have

- Working knowledge of audio editing and sound design.
- Hands-on experience using generative AI in creative work.

- Take ownership of your work from brief through final delivery.
- Pay attention to the details others might miss.

- Stay organized when several projects are moving at once.
- Keep up with creative trends, technology and current production tools.
- Bring ideas forward rather than always waiting for direction.

- Experience creating French-language video or design versions.
- Blender, Cinema 4D or other 3D experience.
- Experience integrating AI tools into Adobe or other production workflows.
