About us
Future Finance is an independent research platform covering the convergence of AI, biotech, energy, robotics and blockchain. We publish daily research, a newsletter read by 45,000 investors, and video built for people thinking in cycles rather than days.
Our readers are serious private investors, most of them 45 and older, managing their own capital. They came to us because everything else in their feed is reactive noise.
We are hiring the face of our video coverage. You will front our recurring market and technology coverage on YouTube and social, turning our research into video that people trust and finish.
What you will do
Front our recurring news and analysis videos - from short daily-format pieces through to segments inside long-form episodes
Take a researched script and deliver it with authority, clarity and pace, on a tight turnaround
Contribute to scripts: sharpen the language, flag what does not hold up, improve the hook
Work closely with our research and production team, and take direction on packaging, delivery and retention
Represent Future Finance on camera in interviews, panels and partner content over time
Hold the editorial line: no hype, no predictions dressed as certainty, no promises about returns
The load, so you can judge it honestly: three to four news pieces per week, plus segments inside one long-form episode. Roughly two shoot days and three prep days in a normal week.
Requirements
What we are looking for
Non-negotiable
Proven on-camera presence. You are watchable, credible and natural. You can work from a script or a prompter and still sound like a person thinking rather than a person reading - and you can hold your own with the script taken away.
Genuine financial literacy. You can read a macro or technology story, understand it, and answer an unscripted question about it without falling apart.
Speed. Script to publish-ready delivery inside 24 hours, repeatedly.
Coachability. You will get direct notes on your delivery every week, and you will act on them.
A clean, disclosed public record. No paid promotion of tokens, projects or financial products in the last five years, and no past content making income or return claims. If there is something in your history, tell us in your application - we can work with disclosed history, not with surprises.
Strong signal
Broadcast, financial journalism or investor relations background
Experience anchoring a recurring show or segment rather than one-off appearances
A body of work we can watch, ideally where you were the sole presenter
Comfort with the technology side of the thesis, not only with markets
Any credible on-camera background - news, current affairs, sport - paired with real curiosity about markets. We would rather teach the subject to a great presenter than teach presenting to a great analyst.
Not a fit
Anyone who needs the role branded around their own name
Anyone whose primary interest is growing their own following
Anyone who wants to keep monetising a finance audience alongside this role, or who is unwilling to give up paid financial promotion for the duration
Anyone who needs a producer to make every decision for them
Anyone who cannot be interrogated on a story they have just presented
Benefits
What we offer
Compensation. Competitive and market-related, depending on location.
Paid trial. One paid week before any offer: three scripts in five days at a pro-rated day rate. You are paid whether or not we proceed.
Exclusivity within finance and investing media for the duration of the engagement. Commentary outside finance and investing is yours.
Six-month initial term, reviewed against the written scorecard shared with you on day one - then a permanent offer or a clean exit.
Location. Dubai preferred; we sponsor the visa and cover relocation. Remote is genuinely open for the right person, with roughly one week in Dubai per quarter.
Process
Application review - we reply to everyone who submits a complete application
Thirty-minute call with the People and Culture Manager
Thirty-minute call with Strategic CEO and Co-Founder
Live screen test, including ten unscripted minutes on a story you have just delivered, and a direct note mid-test to see what you do with it
Paid trial week - three scripts in five days
Two references, then decision
Roughly three weeks end-to-end.
How to apply
Upload links in application:
Two links to you presenting on camera. Unedited or lightly edited is more useful to us than a showreel.
A 90-second video of you delivering this news item, to camera, in your own words. A phone camera is fine - we are assessing delivery and judgement, not production value.
Three lines on why this role, and not a bigger audience somewhere else.
