About Us
Escapes.ca is a leading Canadian online travel agency specializing in all-inclusive vacations. We help Canadians discover and book unforgettable beach getaways with ease while providing superior customer support. We are looking for a creative storyteller to bring our travel experiences to life on social media.
Role Overview
We’re looking for a charismatic, camera-friendly Social Media Content Creator to elevate our content and connect with our audience in a fresh, engaging way. If you’re someone who loves travel, thrives on creativity, and isn’t afraid to step in front of the camera, this role is for you. You’ll be responsible for creating fun, informative, and highly engaging video content across platforms including Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and LinkedIn.
The ideal candidate is creative and performance-driven and can elevate our online presence while producing high-impact video content that supports brand growth and revenue objectives. This role blends video production, social media coordination, and performance alignment — ensuring content not only looks strong creatively, but drives measurable engagement, awareness, and bookings. You will collaborate closely with Performance Marketing and Leadership to align storytelling with campaign goals and business growth.
This is a marketing and content production role focused on social media strategy, on-camera video creation, editing, publishing, and performance reporting. It is not a travel advisor, booking, or sales role.
