Creative Content Lead

Arena Club • Los Angeles, CA

7h • Onsite

About The Position

We're building Arena Club into a content destination, not just a social presence. As Creative Content Lead, you'll own our video content strategy and production from concept to publish, creating the kind of original, platform-native content that turns collectors into a community and Arena Club into a household name in the hobby. This role sits at the center of where sports culture, collecting, and storytelling intersect. You'll be hands-on behind the camera and in the edit, working out of our in-house Santa Monica studio to produce short-form and long-form video across Instagram Reels, YouTube, and beyond, to build a multi-platform content brand with real cultural weight.

Requirements

• 4-5 years of experience in video content creation, production, or a related field, ideally at a consumer brand, media company, or sports/entertainment property
• Hands-on proficiency in camera operation and video editing (Premiere, Final Cut, or equivalent)
• Strong understanding of short-form and long-form video strategy across Instagram and YouTube
• Experience producing content in-studio and in the field
• Highly organized with the ability to manage a content calendar and production pipeline independently

Nice To Haves

• Genuine passion for sports cards, collectibles, or the broader hobby community
• Experience developing or launching a recurring video format or show
• Familiarity with video podcast production
• Exposure to YouTube growth strategy and long-form audience building
• Comfort on camera as a host or interview conductor, in addition to behind-the-lens skills
• Brand-side experience preferred; agency or consulting background less relevant here

Responsibilities

• Lead Arena Club's video content strategy across short-form (Instagram Reels, TikTok) and long-form (YouTube, video podcast) formats
• Own end-to-end production: concept development, on-camera direction, filming, and editing without relying on external agencies
• Build on existing content pilots (including our "After Hours" video podcast) and develop recurring formats that grow audience and deepen community
• Develop a content calendar that connects to product launches, market moments, and cultural events in the hobby
• Attend card shows, trade events, and activations to capture content in the field
• Collaborate closely with the Marketing team and cross-functional partners to ensure content is integrated with broader campaign strategy
• Track performance across platforms and use data to continuously refine content formats and cadence
• Contribute to the long-term vision of Arena Club as a multi-platform content brand, with original programming as a north star

Benefits

• Fully equipped in-house studio (soundproofed production space + podcast-ready setup)
• All production gear provided
• Dedicated monthly production budget
