Role

Who you are

Passion: First & foremost, we’re looking for someone excited about our mission. It makes it a lot more fun!
Experience: Bachelor’s and/or master’s degree in writing or theology, and at least 3 years of writing experience. Preferably experience in creating content for parishes
Grit & detail-oriented: A start-up is tough and we really care about what we’re doing. Perseverance and attention to detail are important. Project management skills and a strong sense of ownership will be key, especially for your project-based work
Flexibility & adaptability: You’ll need to roll with the punches. It’s a very fast moving environment with the need to write and produce quickly. You’ll also need to be able to travel for on-site recordings 5-10 times a year
Word Smith Warrior: This role is writing spiritual prayer content for the app. If you are looking for a role related to SEO, marketing, or other forms of content, there may be other roles at Hallow better suited to your interests

What the job involves

We are scaling and growing quickly and are looking for a writer to help us create content for various projects on the app
This person will play a critical role on our content team in carrying projects from start to finish
Strategy: You’ll brainstorm concepts and projects focused on helping our parish partners and leadership teams to build parishes of prayer
Process: You’ll think through all of the steps for publishing content from coordinating the release date, voice talent, and booking the recording studio
Create: You’ll be responsible for writing a script for the project
Record: You’ll be on-site with voice talent to record in a studio
Publish: You’ll work with the audio team to create the very best product and get everything properly uploaded onto the app
Mission: This work is incredibly humbling. Everyday we get amazing stories and we get the pleasure of working on something that’s impacting lives
Ownership: You’ll be a huge part of our content process. There’s nothing more exciting than creating something beautiful, pristine, and moving, and we strive to do that every day
Growth: Over the next year we’ll build out the company significantly and we’ll need your help to create a world-class content team

Our take

Bringing the mechanics of wellness and meditation apps into the religious market, Hallow is a Roman Catholic prayer app that offers guided prayers, prayer routine management, and social media tools for followers of the Roman Catholic faith.

Though its market is limited to Roman Catholics specifically, Hallow has set itself up as a public benefit corporation, a savvy move that will help it keep afloat whilst growing its audience. With both startup and faith-based advisors helping its founders navigate a complex market position, Hallow has seen staggering funding awarded since its 2018 launch, helping it to expand its services and features.

Hallow’s celebrity-guided prayers have included a number of controversial figures, but this hasn’t stopped the company from appearing in the top 10 most downloaded apps on the App Store. Moving forward, it continues to navigate combing its Catholic niche with its growing place in mainstream culture.
