Los Angeles Preferred, but open to remote.

We’re looking for a Story Producer to help us break down the news, shape our ideas, and weave our unique perspective into fully structured stories across video, audio, social, and newsletter. You will be working closely with both founders; blending writing, editorial judgment, audience understanding, and platform expertise to shape the evolution of our media arm. Your work will support a range of Colin & Samir content formats by transforming complex topics into structured briefs that spark smart, shareable storytelling while maintaining the unique brand voice, tone, and POV.  

What you’ll produce:

You’ll take an approved idea brief and gather inputs from a range of sources to shape platform-specific outlines that include:

  • Clear narrative context and a compelling explanation of why the story matters
  • Relevant data, examples, quotes, and signals from credible sources
  • Multiple angles and interpretations including the case for, against, and the “why now”
  • Insight into industry dynamics, platform behavior, and creator implications
  • A consistent, high-quality voice and editorial standard across longform, shortform, and written formats
  • Clean, concise, creator-friendly bullets that make the story immediately understandable to our audience.

Who you are:

  • 5+ years in storytelling roles: editorial, creative strategy, short-form development, journalism, production or equivalent creative work. 
  • Deeply tapped into the creator economy, internet culture, and new-media shifts
  • Excellent at simplifying complex issues and turning ambiguity into structure
  • Familiar with platform analytics (YT Studio / social analytics) to inform creative development.
  • A fast, resourceful researcher who can separate signal from noise
  • Sharp editorial judgment; knows what’s a story, what’s noise, and what needs reframing.
  • Comfortable with autonomy operating in fast-paced, iterative creative environments

What Success Looks Like After the First 90 Days: 

  • Consistency in edit; right formats, depth, and tone. 
  • Growth in key platform metrics: AVD, new audience viewership, open rates, time spent.
  • Increased content volume across platforms without compromising quality

Compensation Range:

Dependent on location, experience level, and skillset. Compensation range for Los Angeles in a hybrid environment will be $80,000.
