Freelance Video Journalist — Personal Finance

You have the power to make personal finance interesting.

It’s a dry topic. We’re looking for someone who can stand in front of a camera, explain personal finance concepts, and make a viewer feel smarter and entertained (while staying on our client’s brand).

Pinwheel produces finance and fintech video content for our clients. You’d be the face and the voice of it: writing the script, then delivering it with the ease of someone who genuinely knows the material. We handle the rest — editing, animation, and graphics are on us.

What you’d do

– Write and deliver 3–4 videos per month on finance and market topics for our clients.

– Own the script — research it, structure it, and write it in a voice that’s clear, credible, and human.

– Show up on camera with presence: someone viewers trust and want to keep watching.

– Translate genuinely complex finance ideas into something a smart non-expert gets on the first pass.

– Hand off to our editing team, who take it from raw footage to finished, animated, graphics-rich video.

What we’re weighting equally

Three things carry the same weight here:

– On-camera presence — you’re comfortable, natural, and magnetic in front of a lens.

– Delivery — your pacing, tone, and phrasing make dense material land.

– Finance knowledge — you actually understand personal finance concepts, and it shows.

What you bring

– Demonstrable finance fluency — background, coursework, or real work in markets, journalism, or fintech.

– Proven on-camera experience with samples we can watch. This is non-negotiable: no reel, no read.

– Sharp writing chops — you can turn a research rabbit hole into a tight, watchable script.

– Availability to start immediately and hold a steady 3–4 videos-per-month cadence.

Nice to have

– Your own quality kit — solid sound, lighting, and recording gear. Helpful, not required.

– A point of view on finance content and where it’s headed.

The details

– Engagement: contract / freelance, ongoing.

– Volume: 3–4 videos per month.

– Location: remote.

– Compensation: competitive, commensurate with experience.

– Start: immediately.
