Scripting and Production Manager

Full-time

About Primerli

Primerli is an early-stage, high-growth EdTech startup on a mission to raise the bar in digital learning. Let’s face it: most professional learning content is notoriously low quality. It’s boring, slow, and ineffective. At the same time, “content” elsewhere is more engaging than ever. At Primerli, we are taking the modern standards of structure, storytelling, and production quality and applying them to create learning content that is not just effective but also enjoyable. Humans are curious creatures - learning should be a delightful experience, and it can be.

We’re starting this revolution with industry primers. Project-based work is growing across all sectors, with professionals applying their specific functional skills across clients in multiple industries. To succeed, these professionals have to get up to speed fast, becoming experts on an industry overnight. Whether you’re a consultant or a freelancer, this currently results in a lot of time wasted doing desk research and reading long, boring industry reports - and you still have no idea what’s going on.

That’s where we come in. We partner with industry experts with decades of experience to distill their knowledge into bite-sized, animated content that is easy to understand and enjoyable to watch. In just one hour, our learners can gain a comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals of any industry, allowing them to ask informed questions, and serve their clients with confidence. We are creating the kind of learning content people want to binge-watch. You can watch a sample video from our banking Primer below.

The role

Essentially, you will be the script writer and movie producer. You’ll translate our industry primer outlines into concise, witty scripts for animated videos.  You will then lead the production of the videos, collaborating with our voice actors, illustrators, and animators. Day-to-day responsibilities include

  • Writing concise, accurate, and witty scripts
  • Bringing examples and facts to bear in a way that increases engagement and deepens understanding of the topic
  • Pitching visual story ideas to explain complex business concepts in an engaging way
  • Guiding the production team through the process to ensure the final product is clear and engaging
  • Clarifying and improving upon Primerli's tone of voice, including the distilling and documenting of our 'secret sauce'

You will work across industries, functions, and topics.

While the company is based in California, you will be working remotely with a global team and reporting directly to the Head of Product, who is a former BCG Project Leader with more than six years of consulting experience across different geographies.

Primerli is a growth-stage start-up, and you will be joining our team at an exciting time.  You will have clear opportunities for growth and for shaping the future of our Product.

What we’re looking for

Strong values: You care about others, not just yourself, and you see competitiveness as complementary, not a barrier, to showing compassion, kindness, and empathy

Passion for storytelling: You love distilling complexity into simple and satisfying explanations

Writing superpowers: You can easily adapt to and then then improve upon Primerli's tone-of-voice

Learner/teacher: Not only do you love learning new things, but you can also explain even the most complex topics in a simple, understandable way.

Entrepreneurial drive: You constantly challenge the status quo, come up with better ways to do things and take extreme ownership of your work. You are highly comfortable with ambiguity.

Growth mindset: You value personal growth and helping others grow by giving and receiving transparent feedback

Everyday excellence: The idea of “good enough” is not good enough for you. You admire great products, pursue quality, strive for excellence in everything you do
