Job description

At LumiQ, we’re on a mission to make professional education enjoyable. As a modern, audio-first learning platform, we empower accounting and finance professionals to fulfill their continuing professional development requirements through engaging podcasts. Over the past five years, we’ve cultivated a devoted customer base of over 1,000 corporate and accounting firms across North America.

LumiQ is proud to be a 2025 Deloitte Fast 50 and Fast 500 winner. We’re creating awesome proprietary content, nailing our go-to-market strategy, and being the first to shake up the industry. Most recently, we secured a strategic investment from Vertu Capital to fuel our expansion globally and continue executing on our exponential growth plans.

LumiQ is also a certified Great Place to Work! We’re all about transparency, ownership, innovation, and empathy. If you’re ready to make a real impact and help us transform professional education, we’d love to hear from you!

We are looking for a Business & Finance Producer to help us disrupt the professional education industry and create the world’s best CPD content!

This is not a traditional content or production role. Producers at LumiQ are trusted with a high degree of ownership and are expected to exercise strong judgment, independent thinking, and accountability from day one. At the same time, this role is deeply collaborative. Producers work closely with Editors, peers, and guest experts to pressure-test ideas, incorporate feedback, and elevate the quality of the final output.

The role is best suited for individuals who are comfortable operating in ambiguous environments, contributing strong points of view, and engaging in thoughtful debate—where the best idea wins, not the loudest voice. Success in this role means owning outcomes while actively participating in a shared editorial standard and collaborative feedback process.

This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of complex subject matter, education, and content creation. Producers play a critical role in translating expert knowledge into clear, engaging learning for accounting and finance professional, making complex topics accessible without oversimplifying them.

Reporting to the Manager of General Education, the Business Podcast Producer is responsible for owning episodes end-to-end, from topic conception to final delivery, while ensuring content is accurate, engaging, and deeply relevant to our audience.
