Think about the last ad that actually made you feel something — laugh, pause, maybe even reach for your wallet. Odds are it wasn't just the visuals doing that work. It was the voice. We're hiring an Online Ad Voice-over Artist to be that voice, working remotely on everything from short social spots to full commercial narration.
The Basics
This is a fully remote role paying $80,500 a year. Record from a home studio, a quiet corner of your apartment, wherever gets you clean, consistent audio — the setup is yours to build.
What You'll Be Recording
No two projects land the same way. Some days it's a fast-turnaround social ad; other days it's a longer campaign spot that needs real range.
- Recording voice-over for digital ads, social media spots, and radio commercials
- Narrating product launches and brand campaigns across multiple platforms
- Delivering e-learning narration for online courses
- Adjusting tone and energy to match a brand's specific voice — high-energy for one client, calm and reassuring for the next
- Working from creative briefs and brand guidelines to stay on-message without sounding scripted
- Re-recording lines when a take doesn't quite land, without letting quality slip on turnaround
What You'll Need
- Education: High school diploma or equivalent required
- Experience: At least 1 year of voice-over, acting, or related performance experience
- A quality microphone and a genuinely quiet recording space
- Comfort with basic audio editing — trimming, cleaning up takes, exporting clean files
- Headphones good enough to catch small inconsistencies before a client does
- Real vocal range — the ability to shift between upbeat, serious, warm, and playful convincingly
- Ability to take direction and rework a read without treating notes personally
What Sets Strong Candidates Apart
- A demo reel showing range across multiple ad styles and tones
- Prior work in corporate or commercial voice narration specifically
- Experience with longer-form projects like e-learning courses
- Interest in eventually moving into audio direction or mentoring newer talent
What Actually Makes a Read Work
Anyone can read a script out loud. What separates a good ad read from a forgettable one is smaller than that — knowing where a half-second pause builds anticipation, turning a flat line like "buy our product" into something that sounds like a genuine recommendation, and finding the exact tone a brand wants without being told word for word how to get there.
How Projects Land on Your Desk
You'll work alongside scriptwriters, marketers, and designers, though the voice work itself is yours to shape. Naukri Mitra put this listing together with that collaborative structure in mind — briefs and brand guidelines come in clearly enough that you're not guessing at tone, but there's still real room to bring your own instincts to a read.
What Comes With the Role
- Fully remote work with flexible hours built around project deadlines
- Genuine project variety — rarely the same type of script two weeks running
- Weekly check-ins to stay connected with the creative team rather than working in isolation
- A track toward bigger campaigns and becoming the go-to voice for specific brands as you build a track record
The Realities Worth Knowing
Recording alone at home isn't always smooth — a neighbor's lawnmower starts up mid-take, or a line just doesn't land the way you expected and needs three more tries. That's normal. What matters more is the other side of it: the ads you record here can reach thousands of people, sometimes far more, and a strong read genuinely moves the needle on how a campaign performs.
Who Tends to Do Well
The strongest fit isn't necessarily the most classically trained voice — it's someone who adapts quickly between tones, takes a revision note without getting defensive, and manages their own deadlines with minimal oversight. If you've been told your voice makes people stop and listen, this is a solid place to find out what that's actually worth.
Eligibility
This role is open to candidates in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, EU member states, Australia, and India, as well as a number of other approved regions.
How to Apply
Send your application along with a demo reel — two or three contrasting reads tell us more than a résumé ever could. If you make the shortlist, the next step is recording a sample script as a practical audition before a final conversation.
