Salary Range:

$80,000–$100,000 DOE
About the Role

We're looking for an experienced people manager to lead two small content teams — our YouTube content team and our Website Content team. This role is first and foremost about managing people, not producing content yourself. We need someone who has spent years leading people, who genuinely enjoys the work of managing (coaching, unblocking, holding people accountable to deadlines, developing someone early in their career), and who is excited to grow into the content side of the business over time.
You do not need to already be an expert in video production, web content, or digital marketing. We're glad to teach the content and AI-tooling side to the right manager. What we can't teach is a track record of managing people well — that's the core qualification for this job.
What You'll Oversee

YouTube Team

Manage workflow and keep the team on track to hit the weekly upload deadline
Partner with upper management on content strategy and new video opportunities
Will help hire an additional video editor as the team grows

Website Content Team

Oversee writing and updating of product descriptions
Ensure website information stays accurate and current
Oversee product photography workflow
Oversee product listings on Amazon marketplace

Potential Future Scope: Social Media

Possible oversight of a social media role responsible for reading and responding to customer comments and flagging feedback to relevant internal departments

What You'll Actually Be Doing Day to Day

Running regular 1:1s and team check-ins — coaching, unblocking, and holding people accountable
Keeping both teams on schedule, especially the weekly YouTube upload deadline
Developing team members, including someone newer to the role, with a real plan for their growth
Reviewing team output for quality and consistencyReporting to and aligning closely with the CMO on team performance and content direction
Leading hiring decisions as the teams grow
Over time, building your own knowledge of content strategy, video production basics, digital marketing, and AI content tools — with support from us
Qualifications

5+ years of hands‑on people management experience — directly managing a team's day‑to‑day work, performance, and development (not managing a project, a client account, or freelancers/vendors)
A genuine passion for managing people — this should be the part of the job you like best, not a side effect of being good at the work itself
Proven ability to hold a team accountable to recurring deadlines
Strong communication skills and the ability to motivate people across different roles
Willingness and ability to work on‑site in Medford, OR, Monday through Friday
Curiosity and openness to learning digital content, video production basics, and AI tools on the job
Nice to Have

Experience creating or overseeing video, web, or marketing content
Familiarity with AI tools used in content production or marketing
Experience with social media management or customer engagement
Background in e‑commerce, retail, or consumer products
Why This Role

This is a great opportunity for a proven people manager who wants to move into a company with real ownership — both over a team and, over time, over content strategy. You'll have a direct line to the CMO and room to grow this role as the teams expand.
