No BS summary

This role is for a Head of Content for a backyard sports and toys brand. The ideal candidate must have a proven track record of building an audience/channel from scratch, be a strong writer, and have experience producing both low-fi and high-fi content. They need to love sports, toys, and games and be able to overlap with US and UK founder hours.

Core skills

Content StrategyContent CreationContent Execution

What you'll do

  • Invent, strategize, and execute the content that makes these games famous.
  • Decide what gets made, make it happen, and kill what is not working.
  • Content strategy: The portfolio of formats, characters, and series across the brands. What becomes a franchise, what stays a one off, what dies.
  • Creation and execution: Writing, directing, and shipping the content itself, from lo-fi character posts to hi-fi production shoots. You plan and run the shoots.
  • Production partners: Finding and managing the studios, AI production partners, and freelance talent that bring bigger ideas to life.

What they require

  • You have built an audience, a channel, or a show from nothing.
  • Your portfolio makes us jealous. "Managed the content calendar at a brand" is not this.
  • You can write. Character, comedy, voice.
  • You have produced content at both ends: scrappy phone shot tests and polished production.
  • You genuinely love sports, toys, and games.
  • You can work full time with daily overlap with US and UK founder hours.
  • Not a fit if you want to manage people who make things instead of making things.
  • Not a fit if your best work needed a big budget to be good.
  • Not a fit if you think brand content means product videos.
  • Include a link to your portfolio, channel, or the work you are proudest of.
  • Tell us what you built it from and what it grew to.
  • Applications without work to look at will not be reviewed.

Benefits

  • Fully remote, forever.
  • Work from anywhere with reliable connectivity and founder hours overlap.
  • Output is what gets judged, not office time.
  • A blank canvas at the right moment. A proven brand, a launch pipeline, and a content engine that does not exist yet. You build it, and it is yours.
  • Direct line to the founders. No layers, no committees. Ideas get greenlit in a weekly room, not a quarterly review.
  • Competitive salary with a bonus structure tied to your scoreboard.
  • Work From Home
  • Flexible Hours
