JOB OVERVIEW

About the Role

We're launching a new sports analytics and predictions brand, with a strong initial focus on football, particularly the English Premier League.

Our goal is to build a recognisable sports media brand through engaging Instagram Reels, data-driven football content and a premium subscription community.

We're looking for a creative, highly motivated and organised Sports Content & Growth Manager to help build and grow the business from the ground up.

This is more than a video editing position. You'll be involved in content creation, social media growth, football research, community management and business operations.

You'll work closely with the founder, who will provide creative direction, video references and initial content frameworks. We want someone who can execute these ideas, improve them and eventually take ownership of daily operations.

Create and edit engaging Instagram Reels focused on football, sports statistics and match analysis.

Follow provided video references and editing styles while developing original content.

Create compelling hooks, engaging pacing, captions, motion graphics and visual effects.

Turn football statistics and research into entertaining, easy-to-understand videos.

Continuously test different video formats and improve content performance.

Maintain a consistent and professional visual identity.

2. Social Media Growth & Marketing

Manage the Instagram account, including scheduling, posting and optimisation.

Develop content strategies to attract adult football and sports analytics enthusiasts.

Research trending football topics and identify content opportunities.

Track views, watch time, engagement, profile visits and subscription conversions.

Help grow brand awareness and attract potential paying members through responsible, compliant marketing.

3. Football Research & Statistics

Research upcoming football matches, especially the Premier League and Champions League.

Analyse team form, player statistics, injuries, expected goals (xG) and other relevant metrics.

Source reliable football statistics and verify information before publication.

Prepare clear, organised research briefs for the founder.

Assist with recording and reviewing the accuracy of published predictions.

4. Community & Subscription Management

Help establish and manage our premium subscription community.

Ideally have experience setting up and managing ---------- servers.

Organise channels, membership roles, permissions and automated access.

Assist with integrating a subscription platform and payment system.

Help moderate discussions, support members and maintain a professional community.

Develop systems for member onboarding, support and retention.

5. Business Operations & Automation

Build and maintain content calendars and daily workflows.

Organise research, video assets, content templates and performance records.

Identify opportunities to automate repetitive tasks.

Create efficient systems to support the business as it grows.

Take initiative and help improve the overall operation.

Requirements

Proven experience editing high-quality short-form videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok or YouTube Shorts.

Strong understanding of social media algorithms, audience retention and content growth.

Experience using video editing software such as CapCut, Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve.

Strong research skills and attention to detail.

Excellent written English and communication skills.

Highly organised, reliable and able to work independently.

Willingness to learn new tools, workflows and business systems.

Comfortable working in a fast-moving startup environment.

Bonus Points

Passionate about football, especially the English Premier League.

Experience creating sports-related social media content.

Knowledge of football statistics, xG, probability and betting markets.

Experience building or moderating ---------- communities.

Familiarity with Patreon, Whop or other subscription platforms.

Experience with automation tools such as Zapier, Make or Notion.

Experience growing an Instagram account organically.

Understanding of subscription businesses and customer acquisition.

What We're Looking For

We're not looking for someone who simply waits for instructions.

We want someone who takes ownership of their work, brings new ideas, solves problems and genuinely wants to help build a successful brand.

You should be creative enough to produce engaging content, analytical enough to work with sports statistics, and organised enough to manage multiple responsibilities.
