About the Role

We’re looking for a highly creative, digitally fluent Creative Producer to lead weekly shows, video podcasts, and short-form special projects from idea to publication. This is not a traditional TV role; it is for someone who can build and execute fast without sacrificing thoughtfulness. You are a storyteller who understands that a great business show isn’t just informative—it’s watchable.

• Shape tone, pacing, and structure in partnership with talent and creative leadership.

• Bring out the best in on-air talent by shaping ideas, sharpening storytelling, and guiding projects with intentional creative direction designed to travel across platforms.

• Collaborate closely with editors to craft sharp, intentional final cuts, acting as a "validator" of AI-generated content to ensure editorial accuracy and brand alignment.

• Leverage AI tools to drive production efficiencies across script drafting, show notes, research, and audience retention elements (titles, thumbnails, platform hooks) while continuously refining show concepts.

• Evolve formats over time based on audience data, performance, and cultural shifts.

Qualifications & Experience

• 4–7 years producing digital video, podcasts, or personality-led programming—ideally in an environment focused on digital-first formats.

• Based in or near New York City, with flexibility to come on-site

• A natural storyteller who knows how to make complex topics engaging and culturally relevant.

• Strong editorial judgment and creative taste Operationally sharp—able to manage multiple productions and deliver consistently at speed.

• Deep fluency in digital platforms, audience behavior, and format mechanics.

• Experience incorporating AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) into the creative process to accelerate output and improve content quality.

• Openness to experimentation and continuous learning in an evolving, AI-augmented media landscape.

• Deep interest in the intersection of business and culture—and motivated to make that intersection feel accessible, smart, and current.

• Self-directed and collaborative—you take initiative, elevate talent, and raise the creative bar.

• Proficient editing skills (Premiere Pro) and/or strong visual design instincts are a plus.
