2. Video editing and clipping – Edit clips from long-form episodes using Adobe Premiere and AI tools like Opus, maintaining the podcast’s tone and style.
3. YouTube growth & optimization – Grow YouTube channels by optimizing content, creating appealing titles and thumbnails, and leveraging platform features for better visibility.
4. AI content creation and curation – Create and manage high-quality visual and video content tailored for each platform, ensuring consistent branding.
5. Content scheduling and delivery – Upload and schedule content across YouTube and social channels in line with marketing plans and partner needs.
6. Copywriting and tone of voice – Use AI to craft inspiring, thoughtful copy that reflects each podcast’s values and maintains a consistent tone.
7. Community management – Engage with audiences by monitoring comments and messages to foster a positive community.
8. Performance tracking and reporting – Use analytics tools to monitor key metrics, generate reports, and refine strategies accordingly.

Skills & Experience

• Proven success in managing and growing social media and YouTube channels, with increased views and engagement.
• Strong understanding of social and YouTube algorithms, trends, and KPIs, with analytical skills.
• Video editing skills using Adobe Premiere and AI tools like Opus, plus experience with scheduling and analytics platforms such as YouTube Studio.
• Experience in graphic design and creating engaging visual content like 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.
