What it’s all about

This is the launch of a new Market for Fanatics Live. We are looking for a talented and creative Content Creator to help us make an impact in the UK market.

This role is more than just creating content, it’s about telling our story in a way that connects with a new, enthusiastic audience.

You’ll be at the heart of bringing Fanatics Live’ dynamic energy and passion for Sports (football, UFC, basketball…) and Pokemon cards to life, creating content that speaks directly to the UK fanbase across various digital platforms (80% Sports content vs 20% TCG/Pokemon content).

Your challenge? To craft content that captivates, entertains, and engages, whether it’s visually stunning videos, behind-the-scenes stories, or exciting sports narratives.

You’ll oversee the entire content production process, from planning and filming to editing and distribution, ensuring every piece of content resonates with fans and amplifies the Fanatics Live brand. As we introduce ourselves to the UK, your work will be key in establishing Fanatics as a major player in the Sports and Pokemon Cards worlds.

Role & Responsibilities
  • Content Production: Create, produce, shoot, and adapt a variety of content formats (videos, images, social media posts, etc.) that align with the brand’s identity and editorial style.
  • Social Media Management: Consistently share (video) content across multiple platforms (Instagram, TikTok, etc.), ensuring all social posts are tagged, published, and linked appropriately while adhering to high-quality standards and the brand’s editorial guidelines.
  • Campaign Coordination: Coordinate social media promotions for high-profile shows and campaigns, supporting the commercial teams to drive awareness and engagement.
  • Event Activation: Support offline events by managing onsite activations, such as shows, giveaways, and content production (e.g., interviews, vlogs), to enhance event visibility and capture brand moments.
  • Strategy Development: Partner with the marketing team to translate the content strategy and campaign messages into engaging formats.
  • Trend Spotting: Stay ahead of the curve on digital trends and use them to fuel creative ideas and innovative content.
  • Performance Tracking: Analyze the performance of content (views, engagement, reach, conversions) and recommend strategies for optimization.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with the Content and Marketing teams to ensure consistency in messaging across all channels.
  • A Keen Eye for Aesthetics: You have a strong design sense and good taste. If you choose to break the rules of style, it’s for a good reason—and it leaves the world better for it.
