Head of Content

Codie Sanchez and our fast-growing Contrarian Thinking team are looking for a bold, creative, and visionary Head of Content to take our brand from influential to iconic. We're building the most trusted and followed brand in business and investing, and we’re looking for the right leader to elevate our content.

You’ll work directly with Codie as her primary/day to day point of contact across all content and brand initiatives. This is not a “manage the playbook” role, this is a write the playbook role.

You’ll be in charge of scaling our media empire:

• Growing us from 10M followers to hundreds of millions
• Leading an in-house team of creatives, copywriters, editors, producers, and platform managers across YouTube, podcasts, newsletters, and more
• Helping us expand our reach through new talent, partnerships, and media channels

We’re looking for someone who’s led from the front in a high-growth media or creator-driven business and knows how to manage a team that ships with quality and speed.

This person is an operator and a builder. A storyteller and a strategist. A doer and a delegator. You’ll create processes that free Codie from day-to-day communication and give her a high-level, streamlined view of everything that matters, while you make the trains run on time and keep the team thriving.

This position sits on the executive leadership team and will have ownership of our content engine, growth roadmap, and media strategy.

You’ve done this before, or damn close:

• Proven track record managing or scaling a fast-growing content/media brand with 3M+ followers across platforms
• Prior leadership as a Head of Content or a senior creative leader at a high-growth media company, creator-led brand, or digital-first publisher
• 5+ years’ experience leading high-output creative teams across video, social, and multimedia production
• Deep expertise in YouTube long form and short form/vertical video, newsletters, podcasting — and an understanding of virality and monetization
• Ability to create and lead efficient content systems and team workflows across project management platforms like Notion, Asana, etc.
• Experienced in building editorial processes and optimizing them for reach, conversion, and brand growth.
• A working knowledge of AI with a POV on how AI tools can improve efficiency and content quality
• Strategic thinker who understands SEO, affiliate advertising, and how to build a content engine that compounds value over time
• Knows how to hire and develop high-performing talent—whether that’s faceless YouTube hosts or business-savvy storytellers
• Comfortable working at speed with a lean team, while still delivering excellence
• Bonus points for experience in franchise extensions -  international content, merchandise and media partnerships (TV, books, anchor gigs, etc.)
• Clear, fast, no-fluff communicator who thrives in a dynamic, high-trust remote environment
• A Contrarian at heart. Not sure what that is? Keep reading.
