Job description

If your ideal world includes alpha werewolves, morally grey vampires, fae politics, and a little dark academia chaos… this might be your sign.

At Pocket FM, we’re building stories people don’t just read, they binge.

Think cliffhangers that ruin sleep schedules and characters that live rent-free in your head.

And right now, we’re looking for someone who can take a good story and make it impossible to pause.

This role,

You’ll be working with long-form fiction and turning it into addictive, episode-style audio scripts for a US audience.

Not just rewriting, reimagining. Keeping the soul intact, but making it feel like it was always meant for that world.

You’ll play with tone, pacing, dialogue, drama basically everything that makes a story hit harder.

And yes, you’ll have AI + tools to move faster, but the taste? That’s all you.

We’re probably looking for you if:

• You’ve spent years writing/editing fiction and can instinctively tell when something’s off
• You get cultural nuance—what lands, what doesn’t, what feels authentic
• You can handle volume, deadlines, and still keep the writing sharp
• You’re lowkey obsessed with romantasy (or highkey, we don’t judge)

Why this role is exciting

• Your work will reach millions of listeners
• You’ll create stories at the intersection of AI + creativity
• You’ll experiment, build worlds, and shape new audio experiences

This isn’t just another writing role.

You’re shaping stories for millions of listeners across the world.
