Founder Content Strategist / Operator

Eightx is looking for a Founder Content Strategist / Operator to help turn our founder’s ideas, calls, frameworks and opinions into a high-volume organic content engine.

This is not a social media manager role.

You will be responsible for finding great ideas, shaping them into content, helping produce them, and making sure they actually get published.

What you’ll do

• Mine sales calls, client calls, podcasts, meetings and existing videos for strong ideas

• Identify hooks, stories, objections, frameworks and customer language worth turning into content

• Write short-form video scripts in the founder’s voice

• Create simple visuals, diagrams and frameworks that can be drawn or explained on camera

• Edit short-form videos

• Pull clips from longer videos and conversations

• Turn videos into LinkedIn posts, Instagram posts, carousels and written content

• Write blog posts and longer-form content

• Maintain the content calendar and publishing cadence

• Make sure Instagram content goes out consistently

• Publish and manage LinkedIn content

• Review what is working and use those learnings to shape future content

• Maintain a backlog of strong ideas and ready-to-record scripts

• Give feedback on hooks, pacing, delivery, structure and video quality

• Coordinate contractors where more advanced editing or design is needed

What we’re looking for

You are someone who can listen to a 45-minute conversation and immediately recognize:

“That sentence should be a video.”

You have:

• Excellent writing skills

• Strong editorial judgment

• Great instincts for hooks and storytelling

• Experience with short-form video

• Video editing ability

• Strong understanding of Instagram and LinkedIn

• The ability to write naturally in someone else’s voice

• Good visual instincts

• Strong organizational skills

• The ability to take rough ideas and turn them into finished content

• An interest in business, entrepreneurship, marketing and finance

We care much more about your work and judgment than formal credentials.

What success looks like

We want to dramatically increase the quantity and quality of content we produce without dramatically increasing the founder’s time commitment.

You should help us consistently produce things like:

• 5-7 short-form videos per week

• 3-5 LinkedIn posts per week

• Daily Instagram activity

• 1-2 longer written pieces or blog posts per week

• A steady backlog of strong ideas and scripts

More importantly, the content should resonate.

We want founders to see our content and think:

“That is exactly what I’m dealing with.”

or

“It feels like you were sitting in our boardroom.”

What you will get in return

Full-time, competitive salary (commensurate with experience and education)

Remote work

Generous vacation and time-off policies

Benefits and bonuses

Short Video Submission Early Screening

As part of our initial screening process, candidates will be asked to submit a short video. This helps us assess communication skills, genuine interest in the role, and basic video/audio setup.

Video Guidelines

Length: 2-3 minutes

Format: Phone or webcam
