YouTube Content Producer – Travel & Adventure Media (Remote)
About Us
Joshua’s Journey Network is a fast-growing travel media brand sharing real, cinematic travel stories that inspire people to overcome fear and go explore the world. From off-the-beaten-path adventures to raw solo travel moments, our content lives across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Rumble. Our mission? To make the viewer feel like they’re right there with us — whether we’re riding scooters in Thailand, hiking waterfalls in Guatemala, or sharing unfiltered lessons from the road. Job Summary We’re hiring a YouTube Content Producer to oversee daily publishing, short-form strategy, and video flow across our travel platforms. You’ll help organize video clips, optimize uploads, collaborate with editors, write captivating titles and summaries, and guide the content calendar based on trends and travel narratives. You should have a solid understanding of YouTube SEO, thumbnail performance, and what makes viewers click and stick. You’ll work closely with the channel creator and remote editing team to keep things moving smoothly — and be ready to jump in with your own edits or tweaks as needed. If you want a model for the kind of tone and format we aim for, think: Yes Theory, Kara & Nate, or Lost LeBlanc — but with more raw, unfiltered moments.
