Type: Full-time | Permanent Location: Toronto, ON (In-Person) Salary: $90,000 to $140,000 CAD annually Reports to: CEO COMPANY OVERVIEW

50,000 athletes. 30+ cities. Millions of views. Brodie Rec. League runs adult basketball leagues in more than 30 cities across Canada and the US. Players get refs, jerseys, stats, highlights and standings, the way the pros do, and many come back season after season with the same team. Our mission is to make every league night the best night of the week for our athletes. Our CEO documents building Brodie on YouTube and across short-form. That channel has become one of the main ways new players, captains, venues, partners and future hires find us, and we run it as a growth channel with a team and a weekly schedule behind it. ROLE OVERVIEW

We're hiring a Social Media Strategist (Founder Content) to own our founder's YouTube channel and run the team that makes it. The people who make the content are already here. A long-form editor runs our weekly run of show and cuts the vlogs, and a clipping team turns every video into TikToks, Reels and Shorts. Our CEO is on camera. What's missing is the person who decides what we make, packages it so people click, reads the numbers, and holds the whole system to a weekly standard. You're a YouTube strategist first and a team lead second. You'll own the channel's growth and run the people who make it, reporting directly to our CEO. The right person has grown a channel before, thinks in titles and thumbnails before edits, and judges a video by the players and captains it brings in. WHAT YOU'LL OWN

YouTube Strategy & Packaging (Primary Focus) The decisions that happen before the camera comes out, and before anyone clicks. Responsibilities

Define what the channel is about, who it's for,



and its recurring formats and series Write and own the Brodie story document with the CEO: the origin, the eras, the hard moments and the mission every video builds toward. Every editor, clipper and videographer reads it before they touch footage Keep a rolling six-week slate of videos, planned with the CEO in a weekly war room Write or approve every title, brief every thumbnail, and run title and thumbnail tests in YouTube Studio Own the first 60 seconds of every video: open cold on the payoff, set the stakes, make the promise, cut the recaps Chapters, end screens, pinned comments and descriptions on every upload Current state:

one long-form vlog every two weeks, moving to weekly. The biggest gains left are in packaging and the first five minutes of each video, and that's where you start. Retention & Analytics

Read YouTube Studio every week: click-through rate, average view duration, 30-second and 1-minute hold, traffic sources, new versus returning viewers Responsibilities

Review every long-form cut with the editor against a retention checklist before it ships Turn each video's numbers into one clear decision for the next one Keep a weekly scorecard the whole team can see Short-Form System

Brief the clipping team on every video: which moments to cut, the hook, the captions and the platform Set the clip standard (hook in the first second, captions, sound, a explicit call to action)



and hold it Feed what wins in short-form back into long-form topics, and the other way round Own the short-form calendar across TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts on the founder's accounts 4. Distribution & Funnel

Make sure every video points to a Brodie action: join a league, captain a team, bring a friend Use timestamped links from Instagram, pinned comments and end screens to send viewers to the right moment and the right page Work with Growth to track which videos turn into sign-ups and captain leads Find collaborations and guests that bring new audiences to the channel 5. Cadence & Team

Own the weekly production calendar with the editor and the clippers: war room, film days, edit review, ship Hold a 100% ship rate, so nothing misses its slot Give editors and clippers clear, specific notes Plan and direct filming: brief a videographer, or run the camera yourself, and film the CEO's real week as it happens, with no extra filming blocks in the calendar Run the edit without the CEO in the room, so the CEO's hours go to being on camera HOW WE EXPECT YOU TO WORK

AI-Native Content

Transcription and search: every hour of footage transcribed and searchable, so the best moments are found in minutes AI clip-finding: shortlisting moments for the clipping team before a human watches the full cut AI for packaging and research: title and hook variations, topic research and first-draft outlines Automation mindset: templates, briefs and checklists so the system runs without you in every step Speed & Iteration

We ship every week, and every video goes out on its day You're comfortable making calls with 80% of the information and learning from the data Communication & Collaborat
