Job Description

Video Content Strategist / Storyboards

Department: Marketing

Employment Type: Full Time

Location: Remote (Cape Town)

We’re building a founder-led media brand to establish Spiralyze as the definitive authority in A/B testing and experimentation. This role is the engine that makes it happen.
You’ll be the person who turns our proprietary data and the Founder’s expertise into a steady stream of high-impact content across LinkedIn and YouTube. You’ll own the editorial strategy, develop recurring content formats, write or ghostwrite posts, create video storyboards, and manage the creative team that produces everything.

You’re a producer: part strategist, part writer, part editor-in-chief. You’ll work directly with the Founder to extract insights and shape them into content that makes people stop scrolling.

We have the most interesting dataset in our industry, a founder who can deliver on camera, and a production team ready to execute. We need the person who connects it all with a clear narrative and a relentless publishing cadence.

Core Responsibilities

1. Editorial Strategy & Content Planning. You’ll build and own the editorial calendar across LinkedIn and YouTube. You’ll develop recurring series and formats (e.g., myth-busting posts, website teardowns, data-driven trend pieces) that compound over time. You’ll decide what gets published, when, and in what format, and you’ll make sure every piece reinforces our positioning as the data-backed authority in A/B testing.
2. Founder Content Extraction. You’ll run biweekly 60–90 minute sessions with the Founder to capture insights, opinions, and stories from client work. Your job is to turn that raw material into a week’s worth of LinkedIn posts, video scripts, and content briefs. The Founder’s total time commitment should be under 10 hours per week. You’re the multiplier that makes that possible.
3. Writing & Ghostwriting. You’ll write or direct the writing of 4–5 LinkedIn posts per week in the Founder’s voice, plus scripts for 1–2 YouTube videos. You know how to write hooks that stop the scroll, structure posts for engagement, and turn complex data into clear, compelling narratives. You’ll also develop a distinct written voice that feels authentic to the Founder and consistent across every platform.
4. Creative Team Management. You’ll direct an in-house videographer, graphic designer, and overseas editors. You set the creative brief, review output, and ensure everything meets a premium quality bar. You’re not doing the production yourself; you’re the person who makes sure the production team has clear direction and the final product is sharp.
5. Performance & Iteration. You’ll track what’s working and what’s not across every format and platform. You’ll use engagement data, follower growth, and pipeline attribution to double down on winning formats and kill underperformers. You’ll share performance reports and recommendations with leadership regularly.

Skills, Knowledge and Traits

• Exceptional writer. You think in hooks that stop people mid-scroll. You can take a complex A/B testing insight and make it accessible, surprising, and shareable.
• Strategic thinker. You think not just in terms of individual video ideas, but in terms of reusable content formats that we can apply multiple times to our content.
• Data-comfortable. You don’t need to be a data scientist, but you should be comfortable working with math (rates, averages, etc). Our content is built on proprietary data, so you need to understand it well enough to tell stories with it.
• Smart and high agency. You learn fast, take ownership, and don’t wait to be told what to do. When something isn’t working, you diagnose it and fix it. You’re the kind of person who brings solutions, not questions.

Nice to Have:

• Video production awareness. You don’t need to shoot or edit, but understanding what makes a good thumbnail, a strong cold open, and an engaging video structure will make you more effective.

What You'll Get

• Growth path. We invest heavily in developing our people and promote almost exclusively from within. Success in this role leads to building and leading an entire content and brand team.
• In-demand skills. You’ll work alongside one of the most experienced experimentation teams in the world and learn how data, psychology, and creative intersect.
• Time to recharge. 20 days of paid vacation plus holidays.

If you’re excited about building a media brand around data, working directly with a founder, and turning proprietary insights into content that an entire industry pays attention to, we’d love to hear from you.
