5. Content scheduling and delivery: Upload and schedule content aligned with marketing plans and partner needs.
6. Copywriting and tone of voice: Use AI to craft engaging, thoughtful copy that reflects each podcast’s values.
7. Community management: Engage with audiences across platforms, respond to comments, and foster a positive community.
8. Performance tracking and reporting: Use analytics tools to monitor metrics, generate reports, and refine strategies accordingly.

• Deep understanding of social and YouTube algorithms, trends, and KPIs, with strong analytical skills.
• Proficiency in video editing with Adobe Premiere and AI tools like Opus, plus scheduling and analytics platforms such as YouTube Studio.
• Experience creating visually engaging content (e.g., thumbnails, carousels).
• Ability to work independently, solve problems, and prioritize in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong organizational, communication, and attention to detail, with a test-and-learn approach.
• Adaptability to shifting deadlines and content priorities.
