All employees would be expected to have a passion for producing multimedia, digital football content and would require a deep knowledge of the sport, both domestically and globally. 

The Opportunity

We’re looking for an experienced Multimedia Content Lead to take charge of our visual storytelling and content innovation across platforms.

This role requires a strong editorial instinct, high-level creative production skills, and the ability to lead and collaborate across a small but talented editorial team. You’ll be a key architect of how Golden Boot Media comes to life in the digital world.

Key Responsibilities

  • Responsible for the ideation, planning, execution and distribution of original content formats and storytelling across mediums such as short-form video, long-form features, podcasts, photojournalism, graphics and innovative digital series.

You’re a hands-on, multimedia creative with a passion for football, a sharp editorial mind and a visual style that stands out. You know how to make great content across multiple formats and platforms—and you’re excited by the chance to help build something from scratch.

You’ve likely worked as a producer, videographer or multimedia lead in a newsroom or sports media setting and are looking for your next exciting challenge.

Skills & Experience

  • 5+ years of experience producing multimedia content in a newsroom, digital publisher or sports media environment.

  • High-level proficiency in video editing (Adobe Premiere Pro or equivalent), graphic design/Photoshop, and the ability to film/shoot video content independently or as part of a crew.

  • Deep understanding of social media production and strategy—especially for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube and emerging platforms.

  • Excellent project management and organisational skills, with the ability to juggle multiple formats and timelines.

  • Strong editorial judgment and knowledge of football, globally and locally, on and off the park.

  • Experience working in fast-paced environments with tight deadlines and evolving creative briefs.
