We’re seeking a highly creative Social Video Producer to craft compelling vertical videos for our lifestyle, entertainment and news brands — content that’s not just informative, but impossible to scroll past. The right person for this role has a passion for social-first storytelling and video production: You’re probably someone who spends too much time on TikTok and Instagram, analyzing viral videos shot-by-shot. If you love turning trending topics into quick, actionable videos that people actually find helpful — keep reading!
As we grow our social presence across Yahoo Life, Entertainment and News, we need someone who can bring creator-style videos to life, from concept to completion. While this role has a heavy focus on video editing, you’ll also develop ideas for long-term series and franchises, as well as produce, shoot and publish daily videos across our platforms.
One day, you might be teaming up with a reporter or creator on a video series debunking skincare or nutrition myths. Next, you could be capturing celebrities on a red carpet or filming hot takes for a person-on-the-street video. And on another day, you might be crafting a snappy 30-second explainer breaking down the trending story taking over your group chats.
This role requires strong partnerships across editorial teams, including reporters, producers, curation editors and newsletter writers. You’ll also have the opportunity to collaborate with our network of premium publishers and community of Yahoo Creators. Stellar teamwork is what makes our content credible, engaging and, most importantly, fun!
Note - this is a 1-year assignment through AgileOne
