Help The Mary Sue, a feminist-leaning pop culture and geek media newsroom, develop its social-first presence by creating engaging vertical videos for platforms like TikTok to grow reach and engagement.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The Mary Sue is committed to being an inclusive and welcoming place to work. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, national origin, age, disability, religion, gender identity, and expression, and sexual orientation. LGBTQI+ candidates are warmly welcomed and encouraged to apply.
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.
