• Video editing and clipping: Edit clips from episodes using Adobe Premiere and AI tools like Opus, aligning with the podcast's tone and style.
• YouTube growth & optimization: Enhance channel growth by optimizing content, creating compelling titles and thumbnails, and leveraging platform features.
• AI content creation and curation: Plan and produce high-quality visual content using AI tools, maintaining brand consistency.
• Content scheduling and delivery: Upload and schedule content in line with marketing plans and partner needs.
• Copywriting and tone of voice: Use AI to craft engaging, thoughtful copy that reflects each podcast’s values.
• Community management: Engage with audiences on social media and YouTube by responding to comments and messages.
• Performance tracking and reporting: Use analytics tools to monitor metrics, report findings, and refine strategies.

Skills & Experience

• Proven success in managing and growing social media and YouTube channels, increasing views, engagement, and subscribers.
• Strong understanding of social media and YouTube algorithms, trends, and KPIs, with good analytical skills.
• Video editing skills with 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 (e.g., thumbnails, 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.
• Flexible and adaptable to changing deadlines and content priorities.
