ABOUT THE ROLE:
The Content Producer will help ONE advance its advocacy and policy objectives by producing compelling multi-platform content (audio, including podcasts, as well as video and digital) that moves North American audiences from awareness to action. The role sits at the heart of how ONE tells its story across the United States and Canada, and is grounded in ONE's movement-building approach: content that first informs and then mobilizes, carrying audiences along the engagement spectrum toward active support.
Working under the direction of the Director of Communications, North America, the Content Producer will partner closely with the team's social media, design, and digital communications staff to ensure content is consistent, on-message, and maximizes the value of every asset across platforms. They will produce content tailored to the distinct needs of U.S. and Canadian audiences and to the diaspora communities central to ONE's work, and will coordinate with ONE's global communications colleagues as appropriate.
This is a hands-on production role for a strong individual contributor. It is well suited to a producer who wants to apply real craft to mission-driven work and to grow within an advocacy communications environment.

- Develop and produce multi-platform content end to end (concept, scripting, recording, editing, and packaging) across audio, video, and digital formats, including podcasts and short-form social clips.
- Develop and produce podcast and audio content that advances ONE's North America priorities, from format and segment design through recording, editing, and distribution.
- Translate complex policy and advocacy issues into clear, compelling, audience-ready content that drives action, not only awareness.
- Work closely with social media, design, and digital staff to repurpose and adapt content across channels, ensuring message consistency and maximizing the value of each production.
- Tailor content for U.S. and Canadian audiences ONE engages, adapting tone, framing, and platform accordingly.
- Support the editorial development of content, including topic and guest input, narrative framing, and constructive editorial feedback.
- Manage production logistics and quality, including recording setup and equipment, scheduling, and post-production standards.
- Track content performance and apply the learnings to improve reach and engagement.
- Contribute to ONE's global communications community of practice, sharing and adapting best practices.
