The posting

Position: Multimedia Journalist / Vertical Video Producer: The Mary Sue · Location: Remote (applications from all regions welcome) · Compensation: Competitive, based on experience and location

Help an entertainment and internet culture newsroom develop its social-first presence through engaging and informative vertical videos.

About The Mary Sue

The Mary Sue is known for feminist-leaning pop culture and geek media coverage that celebrates women, diversity, and LGBTQIA+ voices, and takes entertainment and fandom seriously as cultural forces. In 2026, we’re evolving to make sure we’re always on top of the biggest stories in online culture, entertainment, politics, and anything else that piques the interest of our diverse audience, while growing our social media presence through multimedia journalism and video.

The Role

We're looking for a Multimedia Journalist, TikTok Producer, or Vertical Video Producer to help us build out The Mary Sue's short-form video presence, focusing particularly on TikTok. This is a hands-on production role where you'll be responsible for taking an idea from pitch to finished video, whether that's adapting an existing story or developing an original, timely video concept.

The right candidate will understand both journalism and social video: you'll need to identify what makes a story interesting, write a strong but concise script, record and edit the video, and understand how to package it for TikTok. You'll be working quickly and producing timely content, so strong news judgment, creativity, and an instinct for what people are talking about online will be important.

We're looking for someone who genuinely understands TikTok and other social-first video platforms rather than simply someone who has experience editing video content. You should be comfortable experimenting with different formats, following trends without chasing every trend, and using performance data to understand what is and isn't working. The goal is to significantly grow The Mary Sue's TikTok and social media presence while maintaining our editorial standards and voice.

What You’ll Do

  • Create short-form video content for The Mary Sue's TikTok, with a focus on increasing reach, engagement, and followers
  • Write scripts for videos based on The Mary Sue's existing coverage, breaking news, trending stories, and original pitches
  • Pitch original and timely video concepts across entertainment, politics, internet culture, fandom, and geek culture
  • Identify existing The Mary Sue articles that could translate well to TikTok and develop them into platform-native videos rather than simply reading the article aloud
  • Research stories, verify information, and ensure videos meet The Mary Sue's editorial standards and ethics policies
  • Record on-camera videos and/or voice-overs, depending on the format and subject matter
  • Edit videos from start to finish, including footage, captions, graphics, screenshots, clips, music, and other visual elements
  • Develop strong hooks, pacing, and storytelling techniques designed to keep viewers watching
  • Keep up with TikTok trends, sounds, formats, memes, and conversations, and identify opportunities that make sense for The Mary Sue's audience and brand
  • Use TikTok SEO and platform best practices, including keywords, captions, on-screen text, hashtags, and other tools that can improve discoverability
  • Experiment with new formats and approaches based on audience response and performance data
  • Work closely with the managing editor to identify opportunities for written stories to become multimedia content, as well as opportunities for video-first coverage
  • Help establish a consistent voice and presence for The Mary Sue on TikTok
  • Maintain a steady output of video content while responding quickly to breaking news and fast-moving internet conversations

What We're Looking For

  • Experience creating short-form video content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, or a similar platform
  • A strong understanding of TikTok and what makes videos perform on the platform, including hooks, pacing, retention, engagement, trends, and discoverability
  • Strong writing and scripting skills, with the ability to turn information into concise, conversational, and engaging video scripts
  • Comfortable appearing on camera and/or recording voice-overs
  • Experience with video editing software such as CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or similar
  • A good sense of news judgment and an ability to quickly identify stories, trends, and conversations that are worth covering
  • A passion and familiarity with breaking news, TV & Movies, general entertainment, fandom, geek culture, and internet culture
  • A strong understanding of how online communities and social media conversations develop
  • An ability to work quickly and independently in a high-output digital newsroom
  • Comfortable pitching ideas, taking editorial feedback, and adapting content based on performance
  • Journalism, reporting, or digital media experience is a bonus
  • Comfortable working remotely and keeping communication levels high
  • Experience repurposing and distributing projects across diverse video and social media platforms

Interested? Send us your resume/portfolio and a cover letter outlining your editing experience and why you think you’d be the perfect fit for this role.
