Director

Overview

Jubilee is seeking full time directors/producers who want to create innovative and meaningful videos for our +10M subscribers. We’re looking for original storytellers who are experts in the digital media landscape, and can pitch/produce/execute their ideas on a fast-paced production schedule, utilizing some of our resources (budget, platform, systems, etc.) but also gathering your own (crew, collaborators, etc). Ideal candidates for this role are high-performing creatives with a distinct POV who are familiar with most aspects of production, can communicate their vision effectively to team members, and are optimistic when things get challenging. Let's collaborate!

The Company

At Jubilee, we're on a mission to provoke understanding and create human connection. We explore identities and experiences that push people to feel more, think more, and see more in others. We challenge the belief of a black-and-white world, and instead embrace the complexity and richness of our experiences. People are at the core of our mission and we're looking for our next family member to join the adventure.

The Job

In the simplest terms, our directors make the videos that live on our channel. The process includes: continuously pitching ideas to our creative leadership until given a green-light; planning and executing production on a schedule that meets budget and time requirements; overseeing the editing of videos so that they meet our channel standards. A lot goes into each of those phases, so an eagerness to learn is essential as well as a positive mindset. The meaning and intention of our videos is our highest priority, so that we're not just making content for content's sake. With your help, we want to create a lasting impact on our audience and create an opportunity for you to grow as a creative.
