Role Description
This is a contracted remote role for a Sports Social Media Manager.
In this role, you will create high-impact sports carousel posts, clip and edit live sports moments in real time, and manage multiple social platforms to build engagement and authority for our clients.

Analyzing performance data and adapting content in real time
Ensuring all content aligns with each brand’s voice, goals, and sports culture
This role demands speed, creativity, accuracy, and elite sports IQ—it is not for someone slow or unfamiliar with sports.

Deep sports knowledge — particularly NBA/NFL, including memes, narratives, trending topics, and fan culture
Experience making carousel content for sports or creator-focused pages
Extremely fast CapCut editing skills on mobile; must be able to post during live games
Proficiency in Social Media Marketing and SMO

Ability to analyze social performance metrics and quickly optimize content
Preferred: experience in sports social media and similar scope of work
Exceptional communication skills for team coordination and client-facing interactions
