About the Position

We’re seeking a creative, data-driven Social Content Manager to shape how millions experience High Performance across YouTube and social media platforms for our shows.

This role involves more than managing posts; it includes identifying key moments from podcasts, using AI tools to clip and edit content, and building an inspiring digital presence that can transform lives.

You should have proven experience managing multiple social media channels, video editing, AI-driven content optimization, and community engagement. Strong editorial judgment is essential for creating compelling content that motivates, inspires, and enhances the brand identity of each show. A deep understanding of content culture—what resonates, gets shared, and garners attention—is also crucial.

Responsibilities

• Multi-channel content strategy: Develop and implement strategies across YouTube and social platforms to increase podcast visibility, engagement, and audience growth.
• Video editing and clipping: Edit clips from episodes using Adobe Premiere and AI tools like Opus, ensuring they match the podcast’s tone and style.
• YouTube growth & optimization: Grow YouTube channels by optimizing content, creating engaging titles and thumbnails, and leveraging platform features.
• AI content creation and curation: Create and manage high-quality visual content with AI tools, maintaining consistent branding.
• Content scheduling and delivery: Upload and schedule content across YouTube and social channels aligned with marketing plans and partner needs.
• Copywriting and tone of voice: Use AI to craft inspiring and engaging copy that reflects each podcast’s values.
• Community management: Engage with audiences by responding to comments and messages to foster a positive community.
• Performance tracking and reporting: Use analytics tools to monitor metrics, generate reports, and refine strategies based on insights.

Skills & Experience

• Proven success in managing and growing social media and YouTube channels, with a record of increasing engagement and subscribers.
• Deep knowledge of social media and YouTube algorithms, trends, and metrics, with strong 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 (e.g., thumbnails, carousels).
• Ability to work independently, solve problems, and prioritize tasks in a fast-paced environment.
• Strong organizational and communication skills, attention to detail, and a test-and-learn approach.
• Adaptability to shifting deadlines and evolving content priorities.
