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.
ROLE OVERVIEWWe'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.
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.
YouTube Strategy & Packaging (Primary Focus)The decisions that happen before the camera comes out, and before anyone clicks. Write and own the Brodie story document with the CEO: the origin, the eras, the hard moments and the mission every video builds toward. 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 The biggest gains left are in packaging and the first five minutes of each video, and that's where you start.
Read YouTube Studio every week: click-through rate, average view duration, 30-second and 1-minute hold, traffic sources,
new versus returning viewers 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 Brief the clipping team on every video: which moments to cut, the hook, the captions and the platform Own the short‑form calendar across TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts on the founder's accounts Make sure every video points to a Brodie action: join a league, captain a team, bring a friend Work with Growth to track which videos turn into sign‑ups and captain leads 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 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 WORKAI‑Native Content We want someone who uses AI to move two to three times faster than a traditional content lead.
