About the role

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. Remote between shoots; travel covered.

To apply:

Submit through ashby and attach any relevant reels/portfolios. Ideally include one project you produced end to end, and tell us what you'd have done differently with more time or budget.
