Through Sportsbeat and Storybeat, we produce journalism, social content, video, creative campaigns and industry‑leading syndication for sports brands, teams, athletes and broadcasters across the global sports landscape.

This is a hands‑on role focused on producing platform‑native content, particularly vertical video, across TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. You will be involved from ideation through to filming, editing and publishing.

* Publish and optimise content in line with platform best practice
Ideation & Creative Development
* Generate content ideas aligned with client objectives and sporting moments
* Spot and act on trends, formats and sounds quickly
* Adapt tone and style across athletes, teams, competitions and brands
* Contribute to content planning and brainstorming sessions
Production & Delivery
* Support content capture at events, shoots and training environments where required
* Work collaboratively with producers, designers, editors and account teams
* Manage multiple projects in a fast‑paced environment
* Deliver content on time and to brief
Platform Awareness & Performance
* Stay up to date with TikTok and Instagram trends, formats and algorithm updates
* Optimise content for engagement and retention
* Support scheduling and uploading where required
