OVERVIEW * This is our first content hire. We're looking for a producer to build Clipbook's video and podcast program from scratch. * We work with the communications teams at some of the most influential organizations in public affairs, government, and advocacy. Those are the people you'd be filming. * You'd own the whole thing: strategy, booking, shooting, editing, publishing. We're fifteen people, profitable and growing fast. ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES: PODCAST STRATEGY * Decide what we make and why: the show's premise, who it's for, and value delivered * Own formats, the editorial calendar, and the publishing schedule * Source, research, book and prep our guests * Own how the show looks and sounds VIDEO PRODUCTION * Run the podcast and our executive and customer video from pre-production through post * Handle camera, lighting, and audio on site, and rent gear in whatever city we're shooting in * Turn each shoot into a full package: clips, stills, captions, thumbnails, graphics * Keep the look consistent across shoots so footage from different locations cuts together DISTRIBUTION * Edit long-form episodes and cut them for LinkedIn, YouTube, and X * Work with GTM on the calendar and keep us publishing on schedule * Track what performs and feed it back into what we make next TRAVEL TO SHOOTS IN US. OTHER DUTIES AS ASSIGNED. STRONG CANDIDATES WILL HAVE: * Taste. This is valued more than years of experience or your education. * Production skills - comfortable owning a two- or three-camera setup, lighting a room you've never been in, and troubleshooting audio without a second set of hands. * Experience with Premiere, Final Cut, or DaVinci, plus working comfort with motion graphics and sound design. * A strong eye for what performs on social, and the judgment to cut for attention without cutting for cheapness. * Resourcefulness with a budget: you know when to rent, when to hire local crew, and when to just get it done. * Highly motivated and results-oriented with intense responsiveness, coachability, and a strong drive to succeed. * Adaptability and willingness to thrive in a nimble, execution-focused startup. * Interest in media, communications, or business storytelling is a plus. LOGISTICS: FULL-TIME: STARTING AT $70,000; FULL MEDICAL, DENTAL, AND VISION BENEFITS, FLEXIBLE PTO, AND 401(K). PART-TIME/CONTRACT: $25-$30 PER HOUR. ~10–20 HOURS PER WEEK.
