Turn Entrepreneur Stories Into World-Class Audio Education

Scaling.com is on a mission to help entrepreneurs 10x (or more) in three years or less—and we believe narrative audio is the most powerful medium to teach transformation. As our Audio & Story Editor, you’ll take raw long-form interviews and help shape them into polished, documentary-style case-study podcast episodes and audiobooks that blend emotional storytelling with deep strategic insight. This is a hybrid role that blends strong writing with audio editing skills to bring clarity, structure, and storytelling depth to conversations with founders of high-growth companies.

You’ll collaborate closely with our in-house Producer and Show Host, who will guide the creative direction and shape the core story arc of each episode. Under that direction, you’ll implement the vision by crafting first-draft narration scripts that connect ideas, bridge soundbites, and guide the listener through the story. These stories are built to illustrate the Scaling Framework taught in The Science of Scaling—our science-backed methodology for teaching entrepreneurs to scale rapidly. You’ll also edit interviews for clarity and pacing, and add thoughtful music or sound design to elevate the listening experience. The resulting 15–30 minute episodes will educate and engage an exclusive community of founders and CEOs from the fastest-growing companies in the world—and will also be repurposed into audiobook chapters published through Strategic Psychology Press, extending the reach and impact of each piece of content you touch.

This role requires sharp editorial instincts, excellent writing, strong audio editing skills, and the intellectual depth to translate complex business strategies into engaging narratives. If you’re excited to teach entrepreneurs how to grow by turning insight into immersive audio—and equally eager to learn from the brightest minds across the world’s fastest-growing industries—we’d love to hear from you.
