Job Description

The Mission: Turn raw content into a high-volume, multi-platform content engine that drives real business growth.

About Our Firm

We are a fast-growing, flat-fee retirement planning firm serving analytical retirees. With nearly 60 million YouTube views and well over one million podcast downloads, content is the primary driver of our growth.

Our founder is the creative engine behind our content, bringing years of experience, a deep understanding of his audience, and a clear point of view on what matters. This role is about translating his vision into consistent, high-quality output across platforms. We don’t need a strategist to tell us what to do; we need a high-output operator to take ownership of our production and distribution. We want to significantly increase our output and reach, and we need the right person to lead the charge.

The Role

This is not a typical “social media manager” position. You aren’t just “helping with posts”—you are the engine room. You will take raw video files from our founder and transform them into fully produced, distributed, and optimized assets across multiple platforms and two separate channels.

Success in this role requires ownership, strong judgment, and the ability to maintain momentum without day-to-day direction. You will be expected to learn the founder’s style, voice, and intent, and ensure all published content reflects the firm’s brand and objectives.

If you need step-by-step instructions, you will find this role frustrating. If you are proactive, hate friction, and take pride in "figuring it out," you will thrive.

What You Will Do

  • Video Production: Edit long-form video content for platforms such as YouTube and Facebook across two distinct channels
  • Micro-Content Creation: Extract and publish high-performing short-form content (Shorts, Reels, TikToks) from long-form recordings
  • Daily Distribution: Repurpose existing content (articles, scripts, videos) into a consistent cadence of daily posts across formats (text, graphics, video)
  • Content Operations: Maintain a forward-looking content calendar and ensure all assets are scheduled, published on time, and live without reminders
  • Optimization: Constantly A/B test and refine titles, thumbnails, hooks, and formats to improve performance
  • Engagement Monitoring: Manage and review platform engagement to identify trends, surface insights, and flag potential opportunities

What You Won’t Do

  • Be on camera
  • Wait for daily direction or “To-Do” list
  • Manage high-level marketing strategy (at first—this role is about execution and consistency, with potential to expand over time)

Requirements & Mindset

  • The "I’ve Got This" Mentality: You naturally say, "I'll make sure this gets done," rather than "What should I do next?"
  • Technical Proficiency: Skilled in Premiere, Final Cut, or similar; comfortable refining AI-generated content
  • Platform Mastery: You understand the nuances of YouTube vs. Facebook vs. TikTok
  • Obsessive Organization: You live in calendars and workflows
  • Nice-to-Haves: Experience working with high-growth YouTubers or creators; basic thumbnail/graphic design skills

How We Measure Success

Success here is defined by business impact, not just “likes”.

1. Primary KPI: Number of consultations generated from content

2. Supporting Metrics: Consistency of publishing cadence, output volume, engagement, and reach

Growth Opportunity

This role is designed to evolve as the content engine scales. Over time, responsibilities will expand and may include leading a team of freelancers, taking over new distribution channels, and helping shape the future of our content system.

Compensation & Benefits

  • Salary: $60,000-$70,000 (depending on experience)
  • 401(k) with company matching
  • Healthcare stipend
  • Opportunity for growth as the role expands
  • Paid Time Off and Paid Holidays
  • Fully Remote or In-Office (Texas)

Additional Considerations

Candidates selected to move forward in the process will be asked to provide links to video content work samples you’ve edited or managed as well as a short explanation of how you would turn one 15-minute video into 10+ separate pieces of content.

This position includes an introductory period to evaluate mutual fit, performance expectations, and overall alignment. Employment remains at-will and may be terminated at any time, with or without cause or notice, in accordance with applicable state laws.
