Volunteer at Orion’s Belt

 

OPEN POSITIONS

AUDIO EDITOR

Orion's Belt is looking for an Audio Editor. We're looking for someone comfortable with both narrating and interviewing, to (1) narrate fiction (and/or poetry), and (2) record short interviews with authors. We're an all-volunteer team, so this would also be a volunteer position.

If you're interested, please send your application at orionsbelt.submissions@gmail.com stating:

  • why are you interested in this position with Orion's Belt

  • your previous experience in audio narration/editing, if any

  • your previous experience in SFF interviewing, if any

  • a short description of your recording setup/equipment

  • a 2-minute or less audio clip that demonstrates your reading style and audio quality

We're planning to put out a short podcast each month starting this summer. If you would like to be added to a roster of possible narrators if you're not selected as Associate Audio Editor, please note that, as well. 

Deadline to Apply: May 15, 2026
