Job Overview

Our Client is a premier digital marketing and media agency backing top content creators and podcasters globally.

Obsessed with creator growth, audience engagement, and platform retention, they rely on highly skilled editorial and creative strategy leaders to oversee video production pipelines and maintain exceptional quality control across every client account.

The Role

Our Client is seeking a hands-on, analytical Lead Creative Manager to own their video review, clip curation, and short-form content strategy end-to-end. Functioning as a high-level \"player-coach,\" this practitioner will review all editor outputs, analyze social performance trends, curate top moments from podcasts, and direct video iterations before assets reach clients. Operating full-time during US Eastern hours with flexible availability across content flow peaks, this leader bridges the gap between raw video assets, editor execution, and client retention.

Deeply studies each creator's unique brand identity, tone, and audience goals to ensure editing styles remain continuously aligned.

Content Curation, Sourcing & Strategy Optimization

Reviews raw long-form podcasts, YouTube videos, and live streams to identify, timestamp, and curate high-potential viral moments for the editing team.

Analyzes video engagement metrics across clients to spot performance patterns, test new hook structures, and refine short-form growth playbooks.

Experiments with fresh editing styles, graphic overlays, and platform-specific trends to keep content ahead of algorithm shifts.

Production Pipeline Management & Hands-On Editing Support

Directs the daily flow of content production, ensuring rapid review turnarounds, constructive feedback loops, and unblocked editor workflows.

Utilizes Adobe Premiere Pro to troubleshoot technical timeline issues, guide complex edits, or adjust cuts independently when necessary.

Coordinates cross-functional workflows using collaborative tooling (Discord, ClickUp, Google Drive, Slack) to guarantee on-time delivery schedules.
