Scriptwriter | Petra Genco – $300-$600 Per Project
We’re looking for an exceptional YouTube scriptwriter to join our team and become the primary writer for the Petra Genco YouTube channel.
Petra has over 900,000 subscribers, and our mission is to help women over 40 lose weight, improve their health, and regain confidence through evidence-based nutrition and fitness advice.
This is a long-term opportunity for someone who genuinely understands YouTube—not someone who simply writes articles.
What you’ll be writing
Our videos cover topics including:
- Weight loss after 40
- Menopause
- Belly fat
- Nutrition
- Protein
- Exercise
- Walking
- Metabolism
- Healthy habits
Scripts are typically 2,000–3,000 words and are designed to maximise viewer retention while remaining scientifically accurate and easy to understand.
Ideal Candidate
Ideally, you have:
- Experience writing for successful YouTube channels (100k+ subscribers preferred)
- Experience in the health, fitness, nutrition, or educational niche
- A strong understanding of viewer retention and YouTube storytelling
- Excellent research skills with the ability to simplify scientific information
- Native or near-native English
- The ability to match an existing writing style rather than completely rewriting our brand voice
We’re looking for someone who understands concepts like:
- Strong hooks
- Curiosity gaps
- Pattern interrupts
- Re-hooks throughout the script
- Clear, conversational writing
- Scripts that feel engaging rather than educational lectures
Job Requirements
The ideal candidate will eventually take ownership of scriptwriting for the channel while working closely with our team on:
- Video angles
- Titles
- Hooks
- Retention improvements
- Overall content strategy
We’re looking for someone who wants to grow with the channel over the long term.
Please include:
- Links to YouTube channels you’ve written for.
- The videos you’re most proud of.
- Your specific role on those videos.
- Any analytics or results you’re able to share (retention, views, subscriber growth, etc.).
- Why you think you’d be a great fit for this channel.
Shortlisted applicants will be invited to complete a paid test project based on one of our existing scripts.
We value quality over speed and are looking for someone who can become an integral part of the team.
