theathletic - The Athletic Media Company - Senior Executive Video Producer

• Experience: 8+ years of experience in social content creation, with a proven track record of scaling audiences for a major sports network, digital media brand, or agency. • Technical "Preditor" Skills: Proficient in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects. Must possess basic field filming skills (DSLR or advanced mobile/iPhone production) to effectively guide the team and execute pilots. • Internet Fluency: Deep subject matter expertise in social platforms, content formats, and algorithmic trends (e.g., maximizing a YouTube Community post vs. optimizing an Instagram Reel vs. a TikTok hook). You live on social media and understand community-building and how to drive the conversation among fans who want more than click-bait hot takes. • Editorial Judgment: Uncompromising journalistic standards. You know how to capture "viral" energy and algorithmic favor while strictly protecting The Athletic’s reputation for elite, deeply-reported journalism. • The annual base salary range for this role is $120,000.00 - $140,000.00 USD. The total compensation offered for this position may vary based on factors such as education, experience, skills, and location. • For roles in the U.S., dependent on your role, you may be eligible for variable pay, such as an annual bonus and restricted stock.
