Social Media Video Editor/Producer

Podcast Discovery is looking for a Video Editor/Producer to support the team and help our clients’ podcasts grow and build their audiences on social media.

What’s Podcast Discovery?

Podcast Discovery is the UK’s leading full-service podcast marketing agency combining owned, earned and paid media. It was founded by Matt Deegan and Matt Hill, who previously set up the British Podcast Awards, to solve a key problem for shows, networks and brands – finding new listeners. To date, the agency has worked with podcasts, production companies and networks including Crooked Media, Sky News, Financial Times, ITV, Amazon Music, Red Bull, Chalk & Blade and Crowd Network. 

It also operates the consumer podcast listening brand Podcast Rex – which has a website, social channels and the Great British Podcasts newsletter that’s delivered to 100,000 podcast fans every week.

As a full service agency, the team supports shows with PR, social, video, paid advertising, performance marketing, events and more. We leave the making of podcasts to our clients, but provide consultancy to ensure their shows are ready to be marketed.

We’re a remote-first, small, high performance team, who are all experts in their field, with everyone meeting up in-person every two weeks.
