Codie Sanchez is hiring a Senior YouTube Long-Form Writer who knows how to turn business ideas into high-retention YouTube scripts. This is not a generalist writing role.
This is for someone who understands YouTube as a distribution engine, business, and entrepreneurship, and telling powerful stories that connect.
You will write 10–25 minute YouTube scripts focused on:
Buying businesses
Investing
Cash flow
Acquisitions
Wealth frameworks
Contrarian takes on money, work, and ownership
You must have
YouTube credentials.
Not just “I like YouTube,” but proof that you’ve written long-form content that:
Holds attention
Drives comments
Builds authority
Converts viewers into believers
You’ll work directly with our in-house YouTube team and Founder/CEO to help shape some of the most-watched business content on YouTube.
If you need weeks to “find the vibe,” this isn’t for you.
If you think in hooks, retention curves, and story beats, let’s talk.
What You’ll Actually Do If you worked here this month, you might have:
Written a 15-minute YouTube script breaking down why boring businesses outperform tech startups
Turned a small acquisition into a narrative case study that holds audience retention
Built a repeatable framework viewers reference in the comments
Rewritten a script five times to sharpen the first 30 seconds
Partnered with editors to improve pacing, payoff, and watch time
Key Responsibilities YouTube Long-Form Writing

Bring data-backed ideas to the table and continuously work to evolve the channel
Business Storytelling
Translate complex topics like acquisitions, finance, ownership into stories people understand, connect with and can apply in their own lives and businesses
Audience & Retention Thinking
Write with an understanding of pacing, curiosity gaps, and psychological pull
Obsess over the first 30 seconds and the roadmap that tells the story
Voice & Authority
Write in a tone that is sharp, contrarian, intelligent, and earned
Help evolve our YouTube voice as the channel scales
Speed & Execution
Move fast. Hit deadlines. Improve through iteration
Treat feedback as fuel, not friction
Required Qualifications This role is not entry-level.
You should have:
Proven experience writing long-form YouTube scripts (links required)
A strong business mindset and interest / knowledge of startups, finance, or SMB ownership
Clear understanding of YouTube retention, hooks, and structure
Exceptional storytelling instincts
Ability to simplify complex ideas without dumbing them down

A large YouTube channel
A business or finance creator
A high-growth media brand
