In this role, you will independently pitch, shoot, produce, and edit original content in all formats (static graphics, carousels, video, etc.) for platforms including, but not limited to YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. We are particularly interested in candidates with a background in journalism and experience presenting on-camera.

- Ideate and collaborate in developing new recurring series, franchise concepts, and platform-native formats designed to grow audience and expand the brand.
- Confidently lead and host long-form YouTube content, with engaging storytelling, strong on-camera presence and audience retention.
- Travel regularly to communities across the country to uncover and report on uniquely American stories.
- Capture high-quality video and audio in both studio and field environments, often working independently on location.
- Write scripts, interview questions, social copy, and promotional content optimized for platform-specific audiences.
- Research and scout locations and interview subjects and obtain all necessary permissions to shoot.
- Work with the Publishing Operations/Community Manager to maintain and update the editorial calendar and content pipeline.
- Monitor news, cultural trends, and stories from across the country - including Sinclair's local stations - to identify compelling people, moments, and ideas that can be reimagined through Amazing America's unique voice and visual style.
- Coordinate with other digital teams on collaborative publishing plans.
- Review social and digital analytics and translate them into actionable steps to increase engagement and content performance.
- Represent the Amazing America brand on camera with authenticity, curiosity, humor, and professionalism.
- 5+ years of writing/producing original content in print, video, and social.
- Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience in all aspects of video production including shooting, lighting, sound recording & editing, and ability to operate all associated equipment (i.e., DSLR or iPhone capture)
- Impeccable spelling and grammar, a deep understanding of social media trends and what works on each platform, vertical video editing skills, and the ability to shoot well-composed videos on a phone.
- Social Media expert with extensive familiarity with all platforms including YouTube, FB, IG, TikTok, etc., including an understanding of and passion for audience analytics.
- Solid understanding of layout and design and the ability to follow brand guidelines to ensure a consistent brand aesthetic across all assets.
- Working knowledge of Adobe Creative Suite (Premiere, Photoshop, etc.), and other creative software.
- Must be highly collaborative, motivated, extremely organized, and come to the position with a uniquely creative mind.
- Must be comfortable with ambiguity and change that may come about as our team evolves over time.
