We're looking for a freelance podcast producer to handle end-to-end production support, from raw recording through to finished episode and social media clips. This is ongoing, recurring work tied to our weekly publishing schedule, not a one-off project.
Responsibilities
Edit raw audio and/or video recordings into a polished, publish-ready episode (cutting dead air, filler words, and mistakes; leveling and cleaning up audio)
Add intro/outro music and any standard episode branding elements
Upload finished episodes to our podcast hosting platform and/or YouTube
Write or refine episode titles and show notes
Cut 3 to 5 short-form clips per episode optimized for social media (LinkedIn, Instagram, etc.), including captions
Design simple episode graphics or thumbnails as needed
Keep production on schedule to hit our weekly Tuesday publish date
Flag any audio/video quality issues early so they can be addressed before publish
Requirements
Proven experience producing and editing podcasts (please share samples or a portfolio)
Comfortable with audio/video editing software (e.g. Descript, Adobe Audition, Premiere, or similar)
Experience cutting long-form content into short-form social clips
Reliable turnaround time and strong communication
Detail-oriented, especially with audio quality and consistency across episodes
Nice to Have
Experience with podcast hosting platforms (Buzzsprout, Libsyn, etc.)
Basic graphic design skills (Canva or similar) for thumbnails and social graphics
Interest in or familiarity with sustainability, climate, or the nonprofit/municipal space
Experience batching workflows for a recurring weekly show
