About The Position

The YouTube Manager for Acquisition.com is a strategic operator across all Acquisition brands — Alex, Leila, and Sharran — serving as the connective tissue between their business priorities and how they're translated into long-form videos.

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in YouTube channel management, growth, or optimization — ideally for a high-volume channel
• Deep understanding of YouTube's packaging ecosystem: thumbnails, titles, CTR mechanics, retention patterns, and algorithm behavior
• Strong analytical fundamentals — comfortable working with data and drawing decisions from it
• Demonstrated experience with A/B testing frameworks for YouTube content
• Familiarity with AI tools for analytics, reporting, or workflow automation — or a demonstrated drive to build with them
• Proficiency with project management tools (ClickUp, Asana, or equivalent)

• Ability to operate fully onsite in Las Vegas, NV

• Develop and run a consistent A/B testing framework for thumbnails and titles across new and catalogue videos
• Maintain a forward-looking upload calendar, coordinating with thumbnail designers, editors and post-production to ensure on-time delivery without last-minute scrambles

• Systematically audit and re-optimize videos 1+ years old - refreshing thumbnails, titles, descriptions, and metadata to drive renewed discoverability
• Build a prioritization framework for catalogue work based on impression potential, existing traction, and strategic alignment
• Track performance lifts from catalogue optimization and report on compounding revenue and performance impact over time
• Treat the back catalogue as a living asset, not an archive

• Stay ahead of policy changes, monetization updates, and algorithm shifts communicated through the partner relationship

• Communicate relevant platform updates to internal stakeholders clearly and promptly
