You decide what we make.
Every video, every post, every hook across three founder brands starts as a concept you built. You're not writing the scripts, and you're not cutting the footage — you're the one who figures out what the thing should be before anyone touches it.
This is the most senior seat on our media team.
We're paying for taste and thinking.
Compensation:
- Competitive Monthly Retainer + Performance Upside
- Base: $92,000-$110,000 (CAD) + Performance Bonuses
Who's This For:
- You have real taste, and you can explain it (most people have one or the other)
- You want to own the thinking, not execute someone else's brief
- You're allergic to content that looks like everyone else's content
- You test things, read what came back, and change your mind when the numbers say so
- You want your work judged by output, not hours logged
- You'd rather have a small team that moves quick than a big one that has meetings
Our Core Values:
We hold every decision, and every hire, against these. If it doesn't fit, it isn't us.
- Build It, Don't Deck It — We ship working things. Nobody here gets paid for a document.
- Taste Is a Skill — Knowing good from almost-good is trainable, testable, and non-negotiable here.
- Test, Don't Guess — Every opinion is a thesis until the numbers come back.
- Human Where It Counts — We automate the process. We never automate the creative.
What We Offer:
- 100% Remote (you just need high-speed internet)
- Real ownership from day one — this seat sets creative direction
- Direct access to the founders. No layers, no account managers, no approvals-of-approvals
- A team of specialists, not generalists. Your brief goes to a real writer, a real editor, a real videographer
- Room to grow into leading the creative function as we scale
Media Engine:
EverScale is an operational consulting firm. We build the functions founder-led companies never got around to building — then staff them, document them, and hand them over.
We're doing that to ourselves right now, with media.
Agencies charge a huge fee per brand for exactly this team, and mark it up. We're building it in-house instead — a real pipeline from research to concept to script to shoot to edit to publish to performance, and back into research. If you've ever wanted to build the machine instead of feeding one, this is that job.
Responsibilities:
- Bring us concepts we didn't think of, every single week
- Write briefs a production team can execute without asking a single question
- Run the testing calendar and report what you learned
- Know what's performing across platforms before we do
- Keep your hands off execution — trust your specialists
- Live by our core values
The Role: You sit between the founders and the production team. We give you raw direction. You give the team something they can build.
- Be the lead experimenter. You own the testing calendar. Every batch carries a thesis — a hook style, a format, a length, a topic. You write down what you're testing before it ships, read the results after, and adjust. You bring us what you learned, not just what you posted.
- Own research. Track what's working in our space and across platforms. Bring us patterns, not screenshots.
If you're forwarding links, you're doing it wrong.
- Own concept. Turn founder direction into concept briefs — the angle, the story, the hook direction, the thumbnail, the package. Everything downstream runs on what you write.
- Own story. Find the shape of every piece before anyone films or writes a word.
- Own taste. You can tell the difference between good content and content that just looks like good content. And you can say why, out loud, in a way the team can act on. This is the hardest thing to hire for and the biggest reason this seat exists.
- Bring every concept up before production starts. We're the first and last checkpoint. You're everything in between.
What you don't own: editing, filming, posting. We have specialists for all of it. Your job is making sure they know exactly what to build.
Requirements
- Native or fluent English.
- Real work experience in content or creative strategy. Brands, agencies, or creators. You've done this, not studied it.
- Short-form native. You know why a hook works, not just that it did.
- You understand distribution. Retention, watch time, saves, shares, and what actually causes a platform to push a piece. The mechanics, not hacks.
- You've tested your way to a result. Show us a format or hook you tried, what the numbers did, and what you changed next.
- You write clearly. Bring real briefs you handed to a production team.
- Bonus Skill: You've built content for a founder or personal brand, or you've run long-form YouTube alongside short-form.
We move fast, the standard is high, and we're looking for one right person. If that's you, apply.
