Job description

Overview

ContentWithPurpose(CWP) is seeking an experienced Creative Content Video Producer to join our remote team from March 2026, on a rolling basis through 2026.

In this key role, you will help craft and deliver high-quality, thought-provoking content that turns sustainability issues into clear, engaging and impactful storytelling. You’ll drive stories from idea through to final delivery, shaping key story messages, developing treatments and scripts, guiding interviews remotely, and steering the edit with a sharp editorial eye. Working hand‑in‑hand with CWP’s production team and the Head of Content, you’ll translate complex topics into clear, compelling narratives across short documentaries, explainers, thought‑leadership films, and social‑first edits. You’ll refine story arcs, maintain brand and editorial standards, and confidently represent CWP in partner‑facing conversations, bringing strong storytelling skills and a firm grasp of digital video best practice, juggling multiple projects in a fast-paced, remote‑first environment.

If you are an accomplished storyteller who thrives on translating ideas into compelling visual narratives and enjoys collaborating with like‑minded professionals to drive positive change, we’d love to hear from you.

Join us and help create a better tomorrow. (See how to apply at the bottom of this job description.)
