What You'll Do

• Set the Roadmap: Work with content team leadership to establish the parish and school content release calendar — identifying release rhythms, prioritizing what gets built and when, and laying the foundation for a content category that will grow in depth and reach over time.
• Write for Parish & School Leaders: Craft scripts and guided prayer experiences designed for pastors, educators, and faith formation leaders to share in small group and community settings — content that is clear, warm, and customized to fit the individual needs of our parish and school partners.
• Produce Long-Form Faith Formation Content: Develop transformative series for sacramental preparation, discipleship, and other evangelization programs that support the unique experience of coming to faith in a Catholic parish or school.
• Build Supplemental Resources: Work closely with our Parish and Schools teams to produce supplemental materials for mainline content that respond directly to the needs and desires of our partners on the ground.
• Collaborate Across Teams: Partner with the broader Content, Product, and Marketing teams to ensure parish and school content is integrated thoughtfully into the Hallow experience and communicated effectively to our partners.

What You'll Love

• Mission: This work is incredibly humbling. Every day we get amazing stories and get the pleasure of working on something that impacts lives. One of my favorite user quotes: “I hate quoting an old, overused cliche, but I’ve been very lost. And I think for the first time in a while I may be found.”
• Partnership: You'll have a front-row seat to how Hallow serves the Church — working alongside pastors, principals, and educators who are hungry for exactly what you're building.
• Ownership: From day 1, you’ll be a part of the startup journey. You'll own an entirely new content category within Hallow, with significant latitude to shape what parish and school content looks and feels like at scale.
• Flexibility: HQ will be in Chicago with the full team and would love to have everyone there. That being said, we're super flexible with location / hours; we don't care when or where you work, just that it gets done.
• Comp: We will pay competitive market rates in terms of equity, cash, & benefits.

What We're Looking For

• Passion: First & foremost, we’re looking for someone excited about our mission to help parishes and schools encounter God through prayer. It makes it a lot more fun :)
• Institutional Knowledge & Cultural Fluency: You have a working knowledge of Catholic liturgy, sacramental life, the liturgical year, and how parishes and schools operate. You have a finger on the pulse of what people are watching, reading, and talking about, bringing that cultural awareness to content that connects faith to everyday life. Familiarity with sacramental preparation and religious education is required.
• Exceptional Writing Craft: You write with clarity, beauty, and depth. You tell stories well. You understand pacing, voice, and how to move a reader, and you've done it professionally.
• Organized & Self-Directed: You can juggle multiple projects, work collaboratively with partners and internal teams, hit deadlines, and build your own workflows. Experience managing content for institutional clients or ministry partners is preferred.
• Experience: A degree in theology, religious education, English, or a related field, plus at least 3-5 years of professional writing experience, ideally within a Catholic parish, school, or ministry context.
• Willing to Travel: While the role is remote-first, candidates must be willing to travel for content production at least 1-2 times per quarter and for in-person team meetings at least twice a year.
