About the job
We’re LumiQ – an audio-first professional education platform for CPAs. We help CPAs get their continuing professional development (CPD) hours through engaging podcasts with business leaders (the CFOs of Slack, Shopify, Yelp, Yahoo!, TD Bank, and Wealthsimple just to name a few). CPD/CPE is the yearly required learning that CPAs generally dread doing. They’re tired of dealing with boring webinars, irrelevant content and product experiences that are out-of-date. That’s why they’ve flocked to LumiQ and our mission to make professional learning enjoyable.
With hundreds of companies signed up, we’re at the precipice of launching a global movement that’s going to massively change the professional education and podcasting industries. Following our recent Series A, we’ve expanded into the US market and are seeing wonderful early signs of traction.
Despite our lightning growth, we tend not to subscribe to the mantra of “move fast and break things.” Our goal is to build a profitable company, where our employees can learn and grow, and where customers see real value and genuinely enjoy using the product. We are building a company meant to last, and if this resonates with you, we hope you will consider joining us on our journey to transform professional education!
What You'll Be Responsible For
- Researching and pitching episodes that are relevant to our audience of CPAs.
- Creating outlines and conducting guest interviews that incorporate smart learning objectives and facilitate interesting conversations.
- Editing audio for content. This includes editing the structure of an episode, cutting out redundancies, and ensuring clarity.
- For a narrated episode it means selecting the right sound bites and writing narration that creates an engaging learning experience.
- Interview guest speakers to obtain key learnings and keep the LumiQ voice consistent in all episodes.
Who You Are
- You have a background in finance: You feel confident in your ability to break down and communicate complex financial and business concepts in a way the LumiQ audience of CPAs and other financial professionals understand and find engaging. A financial designation is required.
- You are organized: Producers work on several episodes in various stages of production at the same time. These episodes can vary in format and complexity. This means you must be able to balance projects, meet deadlines, and clearly communicate project progress.
- You enjoy podcasts: You’re passionate about growth in this industry and maybe you've even dabbled in the podcast production space yourself!
If you think your experience is most of the way there we’d still love to meet you!
