About the Position

We are seeking a creative, data-driven Social Content Manager to shape the digital experience of High Performance across YouTube and social media platforms for our shows.

This role involves more than managing posts; it includes identifying powerful podcast moments, utilizing AI tools for clipping and editing, and building an inspiring digital presence that can impact lives.

You should have proven experience managing multiple social media channels, video editing, AI-based content optimization, and community engagement. Strong editorial skills are essential for creating engaging, motivational content that enhances each show's brand. You should also understand content culture—what resonates, gets shared, and captures attention.

Responsibilities

1. Multi-channel content strategy: Develop and implement strategies across YouTube and social platforms to increase podcast visibility, community engagement, and audience growth.
2. Video editing and clipping: Use Adobe Premiere and AI tools like Opus to create clips from long-form episodes, maintaining the podcast's tone and style.
3. YouTube growth & optimization: Grow YouTube channels by optimizing content, creating engaging titles and thumbnails, and leveraging platform features.
4. AI content creation and curation: Plan and produce high-quality visual and video content tailored to each platform, maintaining brand consistency.
5. Content scheduling and delivery: Upload and schedule content, aligning with marketing calendars and partner needs.
6. Copywriting and tone of voice: Use AI to craft inspiring and engaging copy, reflecting each podcast's values.
7. Community management: Engage with audiences by responding to comments and messages to foster a positive community.
8. Performance tracking and reporting: Use analytics tools to monitor metrics, generate reports, and refine strategies accordingly.

Skills & Experience

• Proven success in managing and growing social media and YouTube channels, with measurable increases in views, engagement, and subscribers.
• Deep knowledge of social media and YouTube algorithms, trends, and analytics, with strong reporting skills.
• Video editing skills using Adobe Premiere and AI tools like Opus, along with scheduling and analytics platforms such as YouTube Studio.
• Experience creating visually engaging content, including thumbnails and carousels.
• Ability to work independently, solve problems, and prioritize in a fast-paced environment.
• Excellent organizational and communication skills, with attention to detail and a test-and-learn approach.
• Adaptability to shifting deadlines and evolving content priorities.
