General overview:

We are searching for an experienced and highly creative social media specialist to join our client's team. Due to the nature of the business we are searching for candidates with a genuine passion for football and betting.

The brand is a well-established sports betting content business with over 1,000,000 followers across social media, a highly engaged email newsletter, and a growing website audience. This is not an entry-level content role, you'll have real responsibility from day one and a genuine say in how the content evolves.

Video experience is essential for this role. As content continues to shift toward video across every platform, we're looking for someone with hands-on experience creating content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, or similar.

The ideal candidate will be passionate about social media trends, possess excellent copywriting skills, have a proven track record of managing and growing social media platforms, and have a genuine love for football.

Responsibilities:

• Create and edit video content across social platforms as part of the wider content mix
• Research football matches, identify quality betting angles, and write clear, accurate betting content
• Create engaging content across social, email, and website
• Explore new platforms, formats, and ideas to help the brand reach new audiences
• Analyse performance data across bets and content engagement to guide ongoing improvements
• Maintain a consistent, authentic brand tone of voice across all channels
• Support day-to-day content operations and bring fresh ideas to the table

The ideal candidate:

• Experience creating video content (TikTok, Reels, YouTube, or similar)
• Strong writing and copywriting skills with excellent attention to detail
• Genuine passion for football and sports betting, with a solid understanding of the game
• In-depth knowledge of social platforms and how content performs and distributes on each
• Self-motivated and capable of working independently in a fully remote setting
• Reliable, organised, and able to manage your own workload
• A creative thinker who brings fresh ideas rather than waiting to be told what to do
• Willingness to work evenings and weekends as required around match schedules

It’s a bonus if you also have:

• Knowledge of content marketing principles
• Graphic design skills and experience using Figma, Photoshop or Canva
• Interest in horse racing, darts or any other sport
