Associate Producer, Yahoo Finance
YahooAbout the role
Yahoo Finance serves millions of people around the world who rely on us for clear, trustworthy money and markets coverage. As audience habits increasingly shift toward video for news consumption, this team turns that journalism into fast, engaging stories across Yahoo’s site, app, and streaming platforms.
We’re looking for an Associate Producer to sit at the center of that pipeline — shaping, clipping, and packaging video wherever our audience is watching. This is a hands-on role for someone eager to grow, whose editorial instincts are as sharp as their video editing skills. You’ll help translate complex finance stories and breaking news into concise, accessible video that helps inform viewers and empower them to make smart money decisions — and you excel at collaborating, keeping projects moving, and making sure the right content gets to the right place at the right time.
