About Sam's GrillSam's Grill Burgers & Poutine is a Canadian comfort-food brand founded in Guelph, Ontario in 2011 and headquartered in Cambridge, Ontario. Every day, our kitchens hand-press fresh, never-frozen beef patties and cut skin-on fries in-store. Our menu is built on Canadian favourites: poutine with real cheese curds, Montreal-style smoked meat, Halifax-style donair, and our signature Barnyard Burger.

Today we welcome guests across Ontario and Saskatchewan, in university cities, lakeside towns and northern communities, with each location run by a local partner. We're growing through new partnerships and franchise conversions, with food that "tastes like home" and a business that "grows like Canada."

The RoleWe're looking for a fast, creative Video Editor based in India to join our marketing team remotely. You'll turn footage from our Canadian restaurants into scroll-stopping short-form content for brand marketing, new store launches and social media. You'll create exclusively for the Sam's Grill brand and work closely with our marketing team in Ontario, Canada.

What You'll Do

- Short-form output: Edit 3–4 short-form videos per week in 9:16 vertical format for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and LinkedIn.
- Hook optimization: Front-load the first 2–3 seconds of every video with a high-energy visual or audio hook so viewers don't scroll past.
- Trend-jacking & ideation: Monitor viral formats, trending audio and emerging internet culture daily, and turn them into relevant, on-brand content.
- Storytelling: Ideate, structure and edit stories that fit each platform, from storyboard to final cut, and plan shot lists for our in-store teams to film.
- Brand moments: Edit content for new menu items, limited-time offers, new store launches and in-store events.
- Workflow management:



Manage multiple priorities and deliver rapid turnarounds for real-time and trending moments, with quality, accuracy and on-time delivery.
- Visual consistency: Maintain standardized camera profiles, colour LUTs and audio settings so all our content looks like it belongs to the same family.
- Asset organization: Keep a clean, organized cloud and local archive of raw footage, project files and final exports.
- Pitch ideas: Bring your own ideas. If it's on-brand and it performs, we run it.

What You Bring

- Based in India, with a reliable internet connection and the ability to overlap some working hours with Eastern Time (Canada) for team calls and reviews.
- Advanced proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects. Experience with Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve or similar tools is an asset.

- Working knowledge of the latest AI video and creative tools (e.g. Runway, Higgsfield, Kling, Adobe Firefly, CapCut AI, ElevenLabs, Topaz), with work samples showing how you've used them.
- Experience with colour grading, sound design, motion graphics and visual effects.
- Strong understanding of social media video formats and platform optimization.
- Platform fluency: you understand how algorithms rank content differently on LinkedIn versus TikTok and Instagram.
- A speed-over-perfection mindset. You have a bias for shipping and would rather post a good video today than a perfect one next week.
- Creative, detail-oriented and highly organized, with the ability to manage multiple projects and meet deadlines.
