  • Developing reactive ideas that spark conversation and deliver value for the clients
  • Liaising directly with the SPORTbible commercial team and other internal stakeholders
  • Helping shape a best-in-class reactive model that can be scaled to future partners
  • Working flexibly, including evenings/weekends to cover key fixtures and events

Requirements:

  • Deep football knowledge and passion
  • Proven experience in social media, ideally within sport and with major brands
  • Creative mindset with a sharp editorial eye and confidence in ideation
