Job description

Forbes Media is seeking a detail-oriented and highly motivated Associate Video Producer to join our fast-paced video team. In this dynamic role, you will be a driving operational force behind short form video strategy, managing the Forbes video library to execute organic, sponsored and custom distribution campaigns. As a proactive "preditor" (producer/editor), you will also play a key role in the end-to-end production of our original programming, ensuring our content is optimized for a global audience.
This is a hybrid position, requiring you to work full-time from our Jersey City office at least two (2) days a week. This role will also require travel to events and shoots as needed.

Responsibilities:

  • Create video clips that narratively stand on their own, optimized for platform-specific distribution, using strong editorial judgment and deep knowledge of Forbes' content to ensure brand alignment
  • Collaborate closely with all project stakeholders (including but not limited to video producers, sales leads, social strategists) to deliver on sponsored campaigns within a 24-hour turnaround
  • Develop and maintain a comprehensive video archive that allows for fast repurposing of content for editorial, social, and sponsored use
  • Publish all assigned content across Forbes YouTube channels, Forbes.com and additional third-party distribution platforms. Responsibilities include writing performance-optimized titles, descriptions, tags and creating thumbnails and playlists
  • Regularly monitor analytics across platforms to provide actionable insights on audience retention and growth
  • Support the podcast team by posting audio files to relevant distribution channels
  • Assist production for Forbes summits and conferences. Lead post-production workflows to turn live event footage, backstage interviews and social content into polished digital assets
  • Collaborate with the social strategy team to deliver assets for social-first projects
  • Collaborate with video producers to source, research, outline and draft scripts for daily news hits and long-form features
  • Collaborate with Forbes staff across departments including social, design, photo, SEO, the newsroom and more to facilitate and optimize video reporting opportunities
  • Collaborate with the engineering team on video platform improvements by identifying technical issues, managing ticket workflows and collaborating with developers on feature enhancements
  • Demonstrate total command of Forbes' editorial standards and the 'Forbsian' voice, ensuring brand consistency across all video metadata, scripts and promotional copy

The Ideal Candidate:

  • Exceptional interpersonal skills for working with high-level executives, PR teams and external talent
  • Experience with Adobe Creative Cloud (Premiere Pro)
  • Comfortable in a hybrid work environment and willing to put in extra hours during major news cycles or flagship summits


The annual base salary range for this role is $66,300 

Forbes has estimated the compensation range set forth above in good faith.  The compensation range is what we believe we will offer, and ultimately pay, a successful candidate.  In determining this range, we consider the experience, level of education (if applicable to the role), knowledge, skills, and abilities required to be had by a successful candidate as well as the budget and the company's pay rates, generally.
