Paired is a global staffing and recruiting agency that pairs remote work with top-tier talent. We help individuals from around the world connect with great companies that are looking for their specific skill set. Our mission is to provide great jobs to talented people, no matter where they are located.

Our client is a rapidly growing YouTube Educator sharing her journey from $100,000 debt to self-made millionaire. And now become one of the go-to YouTube channels on how to create financial freedom. With 750,000+ subscribers and 30 million video views, our YouTube channel empowers millions to go after their financial goals.

Where You Come In:

YouTube is the backbone of our business. As our Channel Manager, you'll help us continue to grow our impact and reach on YouTube. Your main responsibility will be working closely to research, ideate, script, and produce killer video content that provides immense value, creates raving fans, and moves people to action on their financial goals. Rose needs your research support (finding great video ideas), packaging (thumbnails, titles, hooks), project management, editing management, guest management for interviews, etc... Essentially, we are looking for a trusted right-hand person who will serve as the YouTube second-in-command.

Responsibilities:

First 3 Months:

• Producing up to 2 long-form videos and 2 short-form videos per week, working closely with Rose to edit in a way that matches her brand voice and style. See examples here. You will be responsible for hitting certain retention metrics on each video (to be discussed with Rose). 
• Overseeing the video production process, acting as a "mini project manager" for each video to make sure we meet uploading deadlines.
• Collaborating with our video editors to optimize transitions, add visual effects, sound effects, and b-roll for maximum engagement.
• Analyzing video performance data and constantly iterating on that data to improve on the next video.
• Learning Rose's style of making videos, why she structures her videos the way she does, why she picks certain video topics over others, and overall just being a sponge for the way she thinks about YouTube.
• Helping to brainstorm catchy YouTube video topics, hooks, scripts, title and thumbnail ideas.
• Researching daily what's working on YouTube, and bringing those insights to the brainstorming table and to the editing room.

3 Months and Beyond:

Everything in the section above, plus:

• Driving and owning our YouTube strategy. You will be responsible for hitting certain channel growth milestones (to be discussed with Rose). 
• Hiring, training, and managing other video editors or team members to help us grow the channel as you evolve into a more strategic leadership role. 
• Collaborating with our small team on projects that are meaningful for both our community and our company, pitching in wherever needed.

Reading this makes you go, "WHOA — that's ME":

• You have a deep passion for YouTube, where you live and breathe the platform.
• You possess an analytical mind, enjoy diving into numbers to uncover insights.
• You have a deep love for research and looking for patterns.
• You understand what makes video packaging truly incredible and have the ability to intuit what gets people to click AND keep watching.
• You're not only highly creative with an endless supply of ideas, but you'd also have a blast executing on an idea and seeing if it performs the way you predicted it would perform.
• You like Rose's style of videos. You'd be stoked to make videos just like them while adding your creative talent to make them EVEN better.
• Human behavior is fascinating to you — you enjoy thinking about what makes people click, want to keep watching, share, like, and comment on a video.
• Bonus: Knowledge of personal finance, investing, or entrepreneurship.
• You're 10,000% reliable and organized, with a "get sh*t done" mentality. You're resourceful and figure things out, even when it's new or hard, and when you're entrusted with something, you freaking get the job done

• You're a really good communicator — you ask questions when you need to, and if you're not sure you can make a deadline, you let the relevant people know ahead of time so we can adjust accordingly. When you're working with a team, you're good at conveying what everyone needs to know to get the job done. When there are misunderstandings, you're able to avoid drama and navigate conflicts effectively. 
• You'd love to work with a team and a leader that embodies the following values:
  • Ambition: No need to be perfect, but we do need to kick ass.

  • Learning: Growing and becoming the best at what you do is fun and rewarding 
  • Integrity: Interacting with us is a refreshing breath of fresh air, of honesty, authenticity, and professionalism
• Agree to work overlap with CST time

As a part of the team, you'll have the opportunity to learn and grow a lot with us. We are only just getting started, so there will be plenty of room to hone your unique talents & interests. The only limit is your drive, commitment, and imagination.
