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.

You must understand the cultural pulse of sports—memes, storylines, inside jokes, rivalries, and trending narratives—so every piece of content feels native to true sports fans.

Day-to-day responsibilities include:

Watching live sports games and clipping/posting moments as they happen

Creating optimized sports carousel graphics and breakdown-style content

Editing fast-paced short-form videos directly on your phone using CapCut

Executing and iterating social media strategies across TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube

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.

Qualifications

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

Strong abilities in content strategy, writing, captioning, and adapting to sports trends

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

Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, high-pressure sports environment

Degree in Marketing, Communications, Sports Media, or related field preferred but not required
