Are you the person in your group chat who explains the news, corrects misinformation, and finds the story behind the story — before it trends?

Do you live on social media and care deeply about facts, clarity, and civic trust?

We’re looking for an Associate Digital Producer to help us grow and inform one of the most loyal and engaged online audiences in America.

About Sharon McMahon

Sharon McMahon is a #1 New York Times bestselling author, educator, and civic educator with:

• 1M+ highly engaged followers on Instagram
• One of Substack’s most-read newsletters, The Preamble
• A top-rated podcast
• National media presence
• A massive online book club dedicated to curiosity and civic courage

Our content blends accurate reporting, thoughtful analysis, and emotional resonance — and we’re looking for someone who can help take that to the next level across platforms.

What You’ll Do

• Produce and edit digital content on Instagram, TikTok, Substack, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Facebook
• Monitor live events (like hearings, court decisions, press conferences) and cut video for posting in real time
• Pitch stories about law, government, and politics that actually make sense to the average person
• Research breaking news, legal and political topics, and source original documents when needed
• Maintain a social publishing calendar across platforms

Who You Are

• A fast, accurate, and deeply curious digital storyteller
• Passionate about American politics, government, and media — but not here to push an agenda
• Obsessed with what makes content shareable and how platform algorithms reward nuance
• Able to match Sharon’s tone: clear, smart, respectful, and trustworthy
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment where the news cycle never sleeps

Must-Haves

• 2+ years of professional experience in digital media, social video, or political producing
• Strong editorial judgment and attention to detail
• Experience with short-form video (editing, captioning, formatting for mobile)
• Deep fluency in how Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Substack function differently
• Excellent research and writing skills (you can break down legalese and find the story)

The Logistics

• Full-time, remote position (U.S.-based, Eastern time zone hours)
• Salary range: $65,000–$80,000
• Benefits include health, dental, vision, paid time off, and 401(k) match
• Occasional evening/weekend hours required based on the news cycle
• This is not a flexible-hours or freelance-style job. You must be available for real-time production
