EqualPride is seeking an experienced Video Lead to drive the video strategy, growth, and creative direction across our portfolio of LGBTQ+ brands — including The Advocate and Out Magazine. This is a rare opportunity to build strategy and direction from the ground up, and shape how queer stories are told in video across YouTube and social platforms. Reporting to the Audience Director, the Video Lead will own EqualPride's end-to-end video programming strategy while managing a Video Editor and Producer and remaining hands-on with production and editing themselves. The ideal candidate is a player-coach: equally fluent in YouTube growth strategy and the craft of editing — someone who can analyze channel health in the morning, give sharp editorial feedback on a cut at lunch, and finish their own edit by end of day.
