At LumiQ, we’re on a mission to make professional education enjoyable. As a modern, audio-first learning platform, we empower accounting and finance professionals to fulfill their continuing professional development requirements through engaging podcasts. Over the past five years, we’ve cultivated a devoted customer base of over 1,000 corporate and accounting firms across North America.

LumiQ is proud to be a 2025 Deloitte Fast 50 winner. We’re creating awesome proprietary content, nailing our go-to-market strategy, and being the first to shake up the industry. Most recently, we secured a strategic investment from Vertu Capital to fuel our expansion globally and continue executing on our exponential growth plans.

LumiQ is also a certified Great Place to Work! We’re all about transparency, ownership, innovation, and empathy. If you’re ready to make a real impact and help us transform professional education, we’d love to hear from you!

We’re looking for a Producer to join our Special Features team, where we create highly produced,
long-form documentary stories that explore fascinating business topics.

Past examples of these episodes include: What Really Killed Kodak? Disney’s Acquisition of Pixar. Are
the Olympics Worth it? The Cola Wars.

Our Special Features are our most ambitious, highest impact, and highest listened-to podcast
episodes on our platform. As a Special Features Producer, with the help of the production team,
you’ll be the driving force behind bringing our high-quality, narrative episodes to life: from
pitching to interviewing guests to scripting and voicing.

You have 3-5 years of experience: You have demonstrated experience in long-form,
narrative podcasting or documentary-style storytelling. You have experience in producing
audio, including pitching, gathering tape, interviewing guests, hosting, editing interviews
for content, and working with audio engineers on sound design.

You are curious: You love going down rabbit holes to understand the full picture. Special
Features are deep dives that blend creativity and business insight to engage and inform
our audience. You’re able to integrate complex topics (bonus if they’re financial or
strategic business concepts) into a narrative.

You are a skilled storyteller: You’re able to write complex narrative style documentary
podcasts. From outlining to scripting, you have a knack for weaving together story and
information into a compelling and comprehensible story.

You are organized: Our narrative episodes have a lot of depth and complexity and we
often have several in production at the same time. This means a lot of moving pieces at once, so you must be able to balance projects, set and meet clear deadlines, and clearly
communicate project progress.

You are a team player: You are collaborative and are able to incorporate editorial
feedback to help make the best product possible. Experience working with audio engineers
to shape impact and story is an asset.

Familiarity with production tools such as Descript and remote recording platforms is
considered an asset.
