Nomads Cast - Writer Application

Who We Are

Nomads Content Studio is a fast-moving content team.

We work with clients who expect speed, quality, and precision.

Our Core Values:

Urgency – If something needs to be handled, it gets handled.
Ownership – No excuses. We fix problems.
Excellence – Good is not enough. We improve every week.

If those words don’t excite you, this role isn’t for you.

APPLICATION BELOW

The role:

We’re looking exclusively for an American Short-Form Writer (Content Operator) & Speaker to join our team.

What You'll Become Here

- You'll learn how high-performing short-form content is actually made at scale

- You'll develop instincts for hooks, pacing, and retention most writers never build

- You'll work directly with real client accounts, not hypothetical projects

- You'll evolve from a writer to a content strategist

You will be responsible for:

- Getting videos ready for our editor to edit using software called Descript

- Writing captions for social media for our clients

- Cleaning up video transcripts

- Reviewing our client's videos for any errors before client delivery

- Tracking content performance and improving future output

-Writing title cards for our client's videos

- Staying on top of platform trends (IG, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, FB)

- Daily communication with clients and team via Slack

How We Operate

This is a high-output environment. You will touch a high volume of content weekly.

- We move fast.

- We over-communicate. We meet deadlines. Always.

- We fix mistakes immediately.

- We apply feedback fast

- We improve week over week.

- If a client sends a last-minute request, we handle it.

- If something goes wrong, we don’t blame the editor, the client, or unclear instructions. We take ownership and fix it.

You Must:

- Write fluently in American English (C1+ level minimum)

- Understand what makes a strong hook and how to create curiosity

- Have experience with short-form content (IG, TikTok, YouTube)

- Understand pacing, comedic timing, and educational value

- Be highly responsive on Slack (messages acknowledged within 30–60 minutes during working hours unless communicated otherwise)

- Be able to take direct feedback and improve quickly

- Be available full-time by the end of month 1

- Be comfortable handling client needs - including occasional weekend requests

What Excellence Looks Like Here:

- No grammar mistakes

- No sloppy formatting

- No filler words left in transcripts

- Hooks improve over time

- Feedback is applied immediately

- You review your own work before submitting it

- You don’t submit work and hope it’s good. You review it. Tighten it. Improve it. Then send it.

This Role Is NOT For You If:

- You need to be told what to do 24/7
- You need reminders to respond on Slack

- You get overwhelmed by fast turnarounds

- You dislike direct feedback

- You don't take initiative

- You prefer a slow-paced creative environment

- You make excuses when something goes wrong

We only keep high performers.

Hours & Structure

- Month 1: ~15 hours per week

- Month 2 onward: Full-time (~40 hours/week)

- 3 meetings per week (Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday)

- You must be able to transition to full-time within one month

- Each writer handles up to 3 clients (4 with overtime).

Compensation

- We pay $1,000 - $2,400/month

- Writers start with 2-3 clients and scale to 4+ based on performance

- Top writers increase both client load and per-client rate

- This is a performance-based role with clear upside

Benefits

- Paid upskilling

- Performance-based growth

- Remote work

- No fixed schedule (deadlines and communication standards must be met)

Communication Expectations

- We use Slack.

- Over-communication is encouraged.

- Speed matters.

- If you’re unavailable, communicate it proactively.

- Silence creates problems. Communication solves them.

- If this sounds like we’ll be a good fit, complete the writer test next on the right side of the screen.

Good luck.
