UGC Creator Wanted – Contract Role for Digital Nomads

About the role

This role focuses on creating user-generated content (UGC) style videos for Blaze, a payment application tailored for U.S. expats and digital nomads in Latin America. The content will primarily target U.S. digital nomads in the region, focusing on their experiences with rent, money transfers, and daily life. You will be responsible for filming various video formats, including testimonials, day-in-the-life content, and informational clips, all designed to resonate with this specific audience.

As a UGC Creator, you will collaborate with the marketing team to develop content ideas and campaign strategies. A key aspect of the role involves using AI tools, such as ChatGPT, to assist with generating captions and brainstorming concepts. The goal is to produce engaging, short-form video content that captures the nomadic lifestyle and directly addresses the pain points of U.S. nomads living abroad.

Success in this position means consistently delivering compelling video content that connects with the target audience and supports Blaze's growth, particularly as the company expands in locations like Mexico City. The role requires someone who can confidently appear on camera, tell a story effectively within a short timeframe, and demonstrate an understanding of current social media trends to create impactful and attention-grabbing videos.

This contract role offers compensation ranging from $100 to $50,000, paid per project or as a monthly retainer, with additional performance-based bonuses.
