Junior Video Editor
The Hockey Shop Source for Sports | Full-Time | On-Site (Langley, BC)
$23-$27/hour | 40 hours/week
About Us
The Hockey Shop opened its doors in Surrey, BC in 1988 as a family-owned mom-and-pop pro shop. Nearly four decades later, we've grown into an international hockey superstore - now home to 34,000 sq. ft. of hockey heaven in Langley - shipping gear to players on every continent since launching thehockeyshop.com in 1996. Through all that growth, we've stayed true to our roots: hockey people helping hockey people.
About the Role
We're looking for a Video Editor who loves creating engaging social content. Your primary focus will be post-production - taking raw footage from product reviews, equipment breakdowns, in-store events, and social content shoots and turning it into polished videos for YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and beyond.
You'll work closely with our content team, editing everything from long-form YouTube reviews to fast-paced short-form clips. While editing is the bulk of the role, you may occasionally be asked to help with filming - setting up shots, running a camera, or capturing content on the store floor.
This is a great role for an editor early in their career who wants to sharpen their craft with a high volume of real-world content and grow their skills alongside a supportive team.
You won't be starting from zero. Across our main @thehockeyshop and goalie-focused @thsgoal accounts, your edits will reach an established audience of 210k+ followers on TikTok, 117k+ YouTube subscribers, and 104k+ followers on Instagram - with plenty of room to grow.
You'll have your own dedicated desk and editing workstation, and you'll report to our E-Commerce Manager while collaborating daily with the social team on content priorities and deadlines.
What You'll Work With
You won't be editing on a shoestring. Our on-site content setup includes:
- A dedicated editing workstation and desk
- Paid subscriptions for the software you need - editing, design, and scheduling tools
- A dedicated photo studio with a variety of backdrops and props
- Dedicated video and photography cameras with a range of lenses
- A DJI Osmo Pocket for run-and-gun and on-the-floor content
- Managing wireless lavalier mics and audio
What You'll Do
Video Editing (Primary Focus)
- Edit long-form YouTube videos: product reviews, equipment breakdowns, comparisons, and tutorials
- Cut short-form content for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts, repurposing long-form footage where possible
- Edit in Adobe Premiere Pro and CapCut, choosing the right tool for the format and turnaround
- Review footage, select strong moments, and structure narratives that hold attention
- Handle post-production: cutting, pacing, basic color correction, audio cleanup and synchronization, music, captions, and export
- Create thumbnails and title cards that drive clicks and views
- Maintain brand consistency while adapting creative to platform-specific best practices
- Organize project files, our footage library, and export settings to keep workflows efficient and output consistent
Collaboration with the Social Team
- Work with the content team to plan edits around the content calendar and publishing schedule
- Incorporate feedback efficiently and turn revisions around quickly to hit posting deadlines
- Stay current with trends in social media, short-form video, and editing styles
Filming Support (Occasional)
- Assist with filming product demos, reviews, and in-store events when needed
- Help with shoot setup: cameras, lighting, and audio
- Capture supplemental b-roll on the store floor to strengthen your edits
What We're Looking For
- 1-2 years of hands-on video editing experience (school projects, freelance, or a strong personal channel all count)
- A portfolio or reel showing your editing work. A portfolio is required to be considered.
- Working proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and/or CapCut, with a willingness to build skills in both
- A good sense of storytelling, pacing, and what makes content watchable
- Familiarity with audio synchronization, captioning, and export settings for different platforms
- Strong organizational skills and attention to detail
- Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines in a fast-paced environment
- Ability to receive and implement feedback while maintaining a positive, collaborative attitude
- Strong communication skills and a professional, team-first attitude
Bonus Points For
- Motion graphics experience (After Effects or Premiere-native)
- Working knowledge of Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, or Figma
- Familiarity with tools like Canva, Meta Business Suite, and Notion
- Familiarity with AI-powered creative and video production tools
- Basic camera and lighting knowledge
- Knowledge of hockey and hockey equipment (a major asset but not required)
What a High Performer Looks Like
Skills get you in the door - these habits are what set our best people apart:
- Organized - You juggle multiple edits, revisions, and deadlines across platforms without letting things slip through the cracks
- Adaptable - Retail moves fast and algorithms move faster. You pivot when a trend hits, a priority shifts, or the plan changes mid-day
- Detail-oriented - You catch the typo in the caption, the audio sync issue, and the export error before the video goes live
- Always learning - You're curious about new formats, editing techniques, and tools, and you treat feedback as fuel rather than criticism
- A team player - You work hand-in-hand with the social team, store staff, and management, and you make the people around you better
Schedule & Location
- Full-time, 40 hours/week, on-site at our Langley retail store
- Flexibility required, including occasional evenings and weekend shifts for event coverage based on content needs
