Job description

The CBS Sports Social Media team creates and distributes all content posted from CBS Sports, CBS Sports Network, and CBS Sports Digital's social media channels. In a sports media landscape that's cluttered with noise, we take pride in building creative concepts that cut through with our audience and represent the values of our brand.

With our rights acquisition of numerous soccer properties, CBS Sports is building a team to lead our coverage of soccer on social media.

Is this the role for you?

As a Social Media Producer for CBS Sports Golazo, you will play a key role in shaping how we engage with football fans across the globe. You’ll be responsible for real-time coverage of the world’s biggest matches, competitions, and storylines, ensuring Golazo remains a must-follow destination for football enthusiasts.

This role requires a sharp editorial eye, a deep understanding of football culture, and the ability to craft platform-specific content that resonates with fans. You will own the moment, from reacting match-defining goals to creating social-first narratives that extend beyond the final whistle.

Beyond posting content, you’ll independently create graphics and videos to bring key stories to life. Whether it's quick-turn graphics in Photoshop or snappy video edits in Premiere, you should be comfortable completing high-quality, engaging content yourself.

If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-energy environment, know how to turn football’s biggest moments into shareable content, and have the creative skills to make it happen, this role is for you.

What will you be doing?

• Create, publish, and manage real-time content from live matches, studio shows, and breaking football news.
• Develop engaging, shareable social content tailored for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Twitter/X, and Facebook.
• Identify and capitalise on trending stories and impactful moments to drive engagement and conversation.
• Conceive and implement original creative content that resonates with football fans globally.
• Design templated graphics using Photoshop to improve storytelling.
• Collaborate with CBS soccer talent to produce and distribute engaging video content.
• Work alongside social designers and video editors to create editorial and promotional content from scratch.

What are we looking for?

• 1-3 years of experience managing branded social media accounts with a focus on football content.
• A deep passion for global football—with knowledge spanning the UEFA Champions League, Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, and other top competitions.
• Experience creating and publishing content across all major social media platforms (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter/X).
• Ability to work under tight deadlines and react quickly to fast-moving football news cycles.
• Strong writing and storytelling skills with a sharp eye for detail and grammar.
• Excellent communication and coordination skills, particularly in working with talent, designers, and video editors.
• Flexibility to work evenings and weekends to cover primetime matches.
• Proficiency in Adobe Photoshop and Premiere with a desire to improve and expand creative abilities.

If you’re a football-obsessed social media expert who knows how to craft engaging content that captivates fans, we’d love to hear from you.
