We don’t care about diplomas. What matters is talent and who you are on the inside. We’re looking for a rockstar video editor and social media manager who wants to use their creativity to help shape democracy and build a powerhouse media brand from the ground up.
ABOUT US:
We’re an award-winning, left-leaning podcast network and we’re growing fast! We create daily viral content across social media for our expanding roster of political podcasts. Currently, we produce and promote four highly influential shows (video & audio), with more on the way. Think of us as a record label for podcasts: we develop the shows and promote them through our brand. We are three owners (two are video editors) who have been doing everything ourselves, and now we need your help! We’re ready to bring on our very first hire to help us level up operations.
ABOUT YOU:
You’re a hard-working, responsible, creative video editor and social media manager who’s hungry to make a difference for democracy. You thrive in fast-paced environments, wear many hats with ease, and want to grow with a media company on the rise. You’ll be our first hire, and could be running a team of creatives within a year!
If you’re also open to being on-camera to create pro-democracy content, even better.
CAUTION:
We value hard work and integrity. If you’re not reliable or you don’t take pride in what you do, we’ll know right away! So, please don’t apply. We’re building something real and need a partner who wants to be crazy successful. Seriously.
