Video Strategist (Contract)

Airtable is the no-code app platform that empowers people closest to the work to accelerate their most critical business processes. More than 500,000 organizations, including 80% of the Fortune 100, rely on Airtable to transform how work gets done.

We're building Airtable's video presence from scratch, starting with short-form. The target: 60 short-form videos published by the end of April across TikTok, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, and IG Reels. You'll own video strategy and production — concepting series, directing shoots, and shipping 5+ videos per week. This isn't a "build the strategy, then execute" role. You'll be shipping in your first week, and you'll bring on a contract editor (or editors) to help you hit volume targets. Once we prove out short-form, you'll build out our long-form YouTube presence as well.

You're responsible for great content, not for creating it all yourself. We have internal subject matter experts across PMM and Education who will serve as on-screen talent — your job is to concept, direct, and produce content that features them. You can be on-screen yourself where it makes sense, but the model is you running the production machine, not being the sole face of it.

We need someone resourceful who cares about performance. You can shoot on an iPhone or camera, turn around edits fast, and understand what works on short-form platforms without overthinking it. You'll travel to key events and to our offices for shoots. Volume matters, but so does performance, we're not just filling a feed, we're building an audience.
