The Mission
With a combined audience of 1.3 million followers, Gavintalkstaxes is the go-to source for making complex tax strategies accessible and entertaining. We are looking for a brilliant Content Strategist & Researcher who can hunt down the latest IRS updates, viral financial trends, and "tax loopholes" and translate them into high-performing short-form video scripts (Reels, TikTok, Shorts).
What You’ll Do
Trend Forecasting: Monitor tax law changes, IRS newsroom updates, and trending financial topics across X
Deep-Dive Research: Fact-check tax strategies to ensure 100?curacy. You’ll be the bridge between "tax professional" and "viral creator."
Script Engineering: Write hooks that stop the scroll and scripts that maintain high retention. You aren't just writing captions; you’re architecting views.
Content Mapping: Manage the content calendar to ensure a balance of educational "evergreen" content and rapid-response news.
Performance Analysis: Dig into the analytics to figure out why a video hit 5M views or flopped at 50k, and adjust the strategy accordingly.
Who You Are
The Researcher: You actually enjoy reading IRS bulletins or court cases to find the "hidden gems" that save people money.
The Strategist: You understand that a video about Section 179 isn't just about the tax code—it’s about the "hook" of buying a G-Wagon.
Short-Form Native: You live on Reels/TikTok/Shorts. You know the current sounds, pacing, and visual styles that are winning right now.
Hyper-Organized: You can manage multiple projects and deadlines without breaking a sweat.
Requirements
Proven experience as a Content Strategist or Researcher for a major creator (100k+ followers) or a financial media brand.
Strong understanding of US Tax Law or Personal Finance (Professional certification like EA or CPA is a massive plus, but not required if your research skills are elite).
Portfolio of scripts or content ideas that have resulted in significant reach/engagement.
