  • Research trends, topics, and keywords for the YouTube platform
  • Develop/pitch new viral video ideas and formats independently and on assignment
  • Review, sort, and synthesize raw inspiration
  • Lead group brainstorm sessions
  • Write and rewrite youtube titles/thumbnail design copy
  • Work with remote contractor team day to day to facilitate strategic creative inspiration

What we're looking for:

  • Previous experience in YouTube preferred
  • Knowledge of influencers/creators and current video trends- or willingness to learn this quickly
  • Humility- you will need to have a willingness to learn and grow. We need to be able to mold and teach you
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills
