Content Strategist / Podcast Producer (Show Format + Audience Development)

Overview

This is not an editing role. I’m looking for a high-level strategist to help architect a podcast from the ground up—defining the show format, messaging, and content structure for a high-end financial brand. Engagement Structure This is a defined, short-term strategy sprint, not a full-time or ongoing role. The engagement is focused on delivering the core structure and foundation of the show over a 2–4 week period. Target Audience Men and women age 55+ who are within 5–10 years of retirement or already retired, with high net worth, focused on income, tax efficiency, and long-term financial security. Scope of Work This engagement is focused on building the strategic foundation of the show: Define show format (segments, structure, flow) Build repeatable episode frameworks Develop 3–5 teleprompter-ready segments/scripts Provide direction on content strategy and growth (YouTube + short-form clips) Goal Create a clear, scalable structure so the podcast becomes a consistent audience and authority-building platform—not just content. Platform Experience (Preferred) Preference for candidates who have built or managed shows using Riverside or similar remote recording platforms, not just edited content from them. Who This Is For: You’ve helped grow podcasts or YouTube channels You think in formats, not just episodes You understand how to structure content for retention and authority Who This Is NOT For: Editors or audio engineers Basic podcast producers Anyone focused only on post-production Timeline 2–4 weeks Additional Notes: This will likely turn into additional work if there’s a strong fit. We already have a professional studio and would like to use the Riverside platform, so we are not looking for studio setup. We need someone who can help shape and setup the show, brand and strategy and guide the process. Responsibilities: Help develop show format and positioning, show ideas Guide host performance and episode flow Assist with launch planning Help manage guest strategy Audience growth strategy Oversee recording process (Riverside) (initially) Ideal candidate: Experience with consumer or B2C podcasts (ie: think of Suze Orman, Dave Ramsey) Strong understanding of podcast strategy + growth Experience with video podcasts Please include examples of podcasts you’ve worked on and your role.
