About The Role
Right now, the founder concepts and briefs content but is the bottleneck on execution. Interns have provided some support, but the constant retraining every semester makes it hard to move quickly or maintain consistency.
This role solves that. We are hiring one creative who can handle both short-form video editing and graphic design, take a brief plus existing brand guidelines, and turn it into polished, social-ready content quickly and consistently. You will be the reliable creative engine that lets the brand keep pace with sports.
Key Responsibilities
Short-Form Video Editing
- Edit UGC-style social videos as the primary, highest-volume deliverable
- Handle occasional longer-form or more produced video pieces
- Source and select the right clips and moments to build compelling sports content
- Deliver on a fast cadence, often turning content around within a day of a sports moment
Graphic Design
- Design social graphics within established brand guides and templates
- Adapt and extend existing templates while keeping each brand visually consistent
- Produce clean, on-brand assets across multiple brands
Brief-to-Delivery Execution
- Take briefs directly from the founder and produce to spec with minimal rework
- Incorporate feedback quickly and iterate
- Keep output consistent and dependable so the founder can hand off with confidence
Cross-Brand Creative Support
- Flex across our flagship sports brand, the creative consulting practice, and paid social client content
- Prioritize and balance work across brands as volume shifts
Required Qualifications
- Demonstrated experience in both short-form social video editing and graphic design (this is a combined role, not one or the other)
- A portfolio showing social-first work: edited UGC-style video and designed graphics
- Genuine working fluency in American sports — leagues, teams, key moments, and culture — with the ability to identify and use the right clips without heavy oversight
- Proficiency with industry-standard tools such as Adobe Premiere/After Effects, Photoshop/Illustrator, CapCut, Canva, or Figma (or equivalents)
- Ability to work confidently from brand guidelines and templates
- Comfort with fast turnaround and consistent CST overlap
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience creating content for sports, media, or entertainment brands
- Comfort using AI creative tools to speed up workflow
- Experience working across multiple brands or clients at once
- Motion graphics or higher-production video capability for occasional larger projects
Ideal Candidate Profile
You Are
- Creatively sharp but fast — you value shipping consistently over over-polishing
- A genuine sports fan who understands American sports without needing it explained
- Excellent at taking direction and then improving on it
- Self-managing across multiple brands and priorities
- Detail-oriented about brand consistency
- Energized by an early-stage, fast-moving environment where the work evolves
