About MPU
More Perfect Union is an advocacy, journalism and education organization with a mission to build power for the working class.

Launched in February 2021, More Perfect Union’s coverage has garnered 1 billion video views and 4 million followers and subscribers.
More Perfect Union is expanding our coverage of sports stories reported through an economic justice lens. Issues we’re interested in include the monopoly power of sports governing bodies, efforts to organize players unions, the wealth and power of team owners and anything else that sits at the nexus of sports and corporate greed. We are looking for freelance video producers to create longform videos (10-15 minutes) on these topics for our YouTube channel and other social media platforms.
For reference, here are some videos we’ve created in this lane:

Ideal candidates will lead video projects from pitch to publish, overseeing all aspects of production, taking direction from senior More Perfect Union staff and working closely with other team members.
Producers will be responsible for pitching and executing ideas related to sports that live within MPU’s mission of elevating working class issues and explaining complicated political and economic ideas to a broad audience through accessible YouTube formats.
This role must be immersed in sports knowledge and excited about the process of telling those stories through video, with the technical and narrative skills to create powerful stories that hook viewers and keep people watching to the end. The position requires a high level of self-sufficiency, strong collaboration and communication skills, and a desire to help develop and grow our brand.
