Lead the development of comprehensive, multi-platform digital strategies and content calendars for professional athletes that increase fan sentiment, follower growth, and sponsor ROI
Act as the primary "lens" for the athlete. You must be an expert at capturing, lighting, and framing professional-grade photography and video in the fast-paced, high-pressure environment of the garage and pit road
Craft a distinct, authentic "voice" for each athlete. You must be able to write everything from witty, real-time race updates to polished, high-stakes sponsor activations
Proactively develop content posts or series that seamlessly integrate corporate partners, ensuring all "deliverables" are met with a creative flair that doesn't feel like a standard "ad."
Conduct deep-dive analytics to identify what drives engagement and use those insights to pivot strategy weekly
Actively monitor the digital landscape, observing trends, managing tags and community engagement to protect and enhance the athlete’s public persona

4–6 years of professional digital media experience, specifically working with high-profile personalities, professional sports teams/events/leagues, agencies or marquee brands
Advanced proficiency in digital photography and videography (Mirrorless/DSLR systems)
Expert-level Adobe Creative Cloud skills (Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and Lightroom are non-negotiable)
A deep understanding of the sports landscape (NASCAR knowledge is a significant plus, but not required). You must understand the nuances of race weekends and the 'rhythm' of a long season
