Job description

Overview

Are You Sport-Obsessed? This Role Is Made For You. This isn't a 9-to-5 posting job. This is your chance to be the social voice of sporting greatness.

What Makes This Role Different?

• Real-Time Sports Action: When Messi scores, when England wins, when records break - you'll be there capturing the moment and turning it into viral content that connects with millions of passionate fans.

• Global Impact: Your content will reach sports fanatics across continents, building communities around authentic memorabilia from sporting legends.

• Creative Freedom: No corporate red tape. Just you, your passion for sport, and the freedom to create scroll-stopping content across Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, YouTube and beyond.

• Growth Journey: Join us as we scale from market leader to global phenomenon. Your role will evolve as we conquer new markets and platforms.

The A-Player My Client Is Hunting For:

• Sport Is Your Religion - You don't just watch sport, you live it. Every match matters, every record excites you, and you understand what makes fans tick because you ARE one.

• Content Creation Genius - Your creativity can turn a single moment into multiple pieces of engaging content. You're a master at photography and videography, and you know what makes content go viral.

• Always-On Mentality - When the Champions League final goes to penalties at 11pm on a Tuesday, you're already crafting the perfect post. Weekend tournaments? You're there.

• Results-Driven - You measure success in engagement rates, follower growth, and conversion metrics. You don't just create content - you create content that works.

• Team-First Attitude - "We not I" runs through your veins. You're building something bigger than yourself.

What You'll Get

• Competitive salary + performance bonuses that reward excellence

• Hybrid flexibility - work from anywhere in the UK (at least a day in the office each week after initial settling in period where you get to work every day and see the business in action)

• Front-row seat to explosive business growth

• Career acceleration with a market-leading brand

• Company pension, events, employee discounts and more

• Relocation assistance available

Our Non-Negotiables

• Sporting passion is mandatory - if you can't name the current Ballon d'Or winner, this isn't for you

• Commitment to excellence - B and C players need not apply

• Flexible availability - sport doesn't stop for weekends, neither does my client's business

• Drive to be the best - average isn't intheir vocabulary

Ready to Join the Champions? My client is not looking for someone who wants a job. They are hunting for someone who wants to build a legacy in the sports world.

If you're the type of person who gets genuinely excited about authentic Pelé shirts, who stays up late crafting the perfect post-match content, and who sees every sporting moment as an opportunity to create magic - I want to hear from you.

Apply now and tell us:

1. Why sport is in your DNA

2. How you\'ll go the extra mile when others won\'t

3. Your biggest social media win that proves you\'re championship material
