Content Studio Lead

Based in the sports industry, with a focus on nutrition and lifestyle, this is a leading brand now looking to grow its team to go well and truly global, so they’re on the hunt for an exceptional Content Studio Lead to help them achieve their mission.

The Role
You’ll define and lead the global content strategy, turning genuine access to elite athletes, teams, coaches, scientists and major sporting events into content people would choose to watch even if it weren’t paid for.

You’ll build the internal content studio: the mix of producers, editors, videographers, photographers, writers and production partners, plus the briefs, workflows and commissioning standards that hold it together. You’ll take work from concept through production to delivery across film, athlete storytelling, documentary, science education, podcasts and YouTube programming, and establish repeatable content properties, not one-off campaigns.

The reach is global with this one: priority markets across the UK, USA and Japan, with occasional international travel to capture content at major events.

The Package
£65,000 – £70,000
On-site working
Strong learning and development budget
Exceptional onsite gym facility
Staff discounts
Opportunities for international travel
25 days holiday plus bank holidays

The Person
You’re a senior content or production leader – a Head of Content, Executive Producer, or equivalent – and, crucially, a genuine maker who understands how things get produced. 

You’ve built formats and franchises, managed internal specialists and external talent, and worked with athletes or senior contributors. You carry the commercial judgement to know when an idea deserves £5k and when it deserves £100k. Sector is open; a real interest in sport and performance is not.
