7xContent is a specialist podcast production agency helping Creators, CEOs, and Brands launch and grow world-class shows.

We produce social-first podcasts that build huge audiences across YouTube, audio, and social, working with global brands like Red Bull, bestselling authors like Ramit Sethi, and high-growth businesses like Kit.

We’re lean, creative, and obsessed with quality — and we’re building the go-to agency for the world’s best podcasts. Now we’re looking for an elite project manager to help us reach the next level.

Your Mission

Make our systems bulletproof.

Free the Founder to focus on growth.

Own operations and project management, end-to-end.

What You’ll Own

• Operational Excellence: Own all SOPs, client onboarding, delivery systems, and reporting rhythms
• Operational Excellence: Build our weekly delivery machine: simple, repeatable, high-quality
• Operational Excellence: Run smooth onboarding → weekly management → offboarding
• Operational Excellence: Drive service quality, client satisfaction, and speed

• Team Leadership & Performance: Manage our producers, editors, and designers with clarity and energy
• Team Leadership & Performance: Lead weekly operational meetings, masterminds, and 1:1s
• Team Leadership & Performance: Set clear KPIs, coach the team, and unlock performance
• Team Leadership & Performance: Own culture: ensure the team is tight, focused, and engaged

• Finance & Margins: Track client-level costs and margins
• Finance & Margins: Spot risks, optimise resources, and help us hit profit targets

• Love documenting and optimising how things get done
• Are resourceful — if something’s broken, you fix it
• Communicate clearly, especially in writing
• Thrive in a fast-growing, founder-led company with high standards
• Care about building something with meaning — not just clocking in

This Is Not for You If:

• You wait to be told what to do, rather than taking initiative
• You need office structure to thrive — we’re remote-first
• You shy away from difficult conversations or giving feedback
• You aren’t excited by pace, responsibility, and ownership

What You’ll Get From Us:

• Exciting role owning operations at one of the UK’s most respected podcast agencies
