Video Content & Multimedia Associate
Kabod Group | Nonprofit School of Wealth
Location: Based in Accra (Ghana), Working remotely (with local and international travel for programs)
Engagement: Independent contractor, retainer plus per-project/travel fees
Hours: Averaging 7 to 10 hours per week, with variable weeks around live events
About the Role
The Nonprofit School of Wealth (SoW) exists to document, teach, and amplify the story of African philanthropy: the givers, the systems they build, and the wealth they mobilize for good. We are looking for a video editor and content creator who can help us capture that story on camera and shape it for the screen.
This is not a purely remote editing job. You will work behind a laptop most weeks, but you will also be in the room: at donor convenings, philanthropic forums, and interviews with African philanthropists across different sectors and backgrounds. You need to be as comfortable holding a camera at an event as you are inside an editing timeline.
What You Will Do
Shoot and edit interviews with African philanthropists, donors, and thought leaders at live programs and meetings
Travel with the founder to local and international events to capture footage on site
Edit content for podcast platform and distribution
Edit raw footage into polished long-form content and short-form clips for YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, and other platforms
Produce short videos on resource mobilization, philanthropy and local giving designed for social media distribution
Support the growth of the founder’s YouTube channel and broader online presence through consistent, strategic video content
Maintain a content calendar and asset library so footage from every event is used, not left unedited
Advise on visual storytelling: pacing, sound, captions, and format choices suited to each platform
Must-Have Requirements
Minimum 5 years of solid, demonstrable experience in video editing and/or production
Experience in development communications, fundraising communications, or work within philanthropic or nonprofit circles
Basic working experience in advertising or brand content
Availability to travel locally (Ghana) and internationally for programs, including flexibility around event schedules
Nice to Have
UI/UX design experience, useful for thumbnails, graphics, landing pages, and channel branding
Familiarity with YouTube growth strategy and platform-specific content optimization
Experience working directly with founders, executives, or public figures on personal brand content
Motion graphics or basic animation skills
Engagement and Compensation
This role is structured as an independent contractor arrangement rather than a fixed employment contract, in keeping with the variable, event-driven nature of the work.
A monthly stipend covers routine editing work and availability during non-event weeks (averaging 7 to 10 hours per week)
Per-project and per-event fees apply for shoot days, covering shooting, travel days, and associated production work
Compensation details will be discussed and confirmed directly with shortlisted candidates, based on experience and portfolio strength
How to Apply
Send the following to sow@kabodgroup.com before 20th July 2026, at 5PM GMT:
-
A short cover note (under 300 words) on why this role fits you, including any experience in nonprofit, philanthropic, or development communications spaces

Your CV or resume
-
A portfolio or reel showing at least 2 to 3 examples of documentary-style, interview-based, or event coverage work, with a mix of long-form and short-form/social cuts if available.
