Your mission

About L1VE
L1VE is a growing media and technology company with offices in Berlin and New York. With immersive 14K/3D/360° streaming technology and innovative live formats, we are changing the way people experience sports, music and entertainment.

Your Role

You are the voice of L1VE online. You build our social media from the ground up, take full ownership of it and work closely with our Content & Experience team. You report to the Head of Marketing & Sales. As the function grows, you can build your own team.

• Full-time (5 days/week), project-based, 12 months
• Work remotely within Europe or Asia, or on-site in Berlin

What You'll Do

• Own all L1VE social media channels (Reddit, TikTok, Instagram, X; YouTube optional), incl. strategy, tone of voice and content calendar
• Build and lead our own subreddit, our main place for talking with the community
• Create platform-native short-form video (TikTok, Reels) that shows what it feels like to be there live with a VR headset, incl. ideas, scripts, editing and trend monitoring
• Create content hands-on together with our content team
• Manage community engagement across all channels, fast and in the L1VE voice
• Create real-time content around our live events, optionally on site
• Brief and manage freelancers, agencies, creators and on-site event partners, incl. quality control
• Report on reach, engagement, follower growth and traffic, and feed learnings straight into the next content
• Attend selected live events, including occasional international trips
