  • Establish strong editorial workflows, set performance KPIs, and drive accountability to ensure speed, creativity, and consistent output.
  • Maintain editorial voice, narrative quality, and fan-first storytelling across all content formats.
  • 3. SEO, Performance & Content Optimization

  • Drive an SEO-led content strategy identifying high-traffic keywords, analyzing competitors , selecting Google Discover-friendly topics, preparing SEO outlines, and refreshing older articles to improve rankings.
  • Ensure all content is optimized for visibility (titles, headers, schema, meta descriptions) and built to rank across Search and Discover.
  • Analyze daily performance data on analytics tools to guide topic selection, identify growth opportunities, and improve writer output.
  • 4. Outreach, Partnerships & Ecosystem Building

  • Build and execute outreach strategies with celebrities, influencers, industry experts, and creators to boost content reach and brand credibility.
  • Develop partnerships with streaming platforms, entertainment studios, PR agencies, and digital creators to expand NJ’s editorial reach, access, and authority.
  • 5. Brand Identity, Audience Growth & Distribution

  • Define how Netflix Junkie should look, sound, and feel across its website and social platforms, collaborating closely with design, SEO, and marketing teams.
  • Leverage audience insights and performance metrics to refine editorial priorities, plan content tentpoles, and grow organic traffic, follower base, and engagement.
  • Drive multi-platform distribution strategies to ensure content reaches relevant fandoms and delivers sustained audience retention.
  • Requirements

  • 5–8 years of experience in digital media, entertainment journalism, or pop culture content management.
  • Proven leadership experience in managing editorial teams or entertainment divisions.
  • Strong understanding of sports-entertainment crossover trends and audience behavior.
  • Experience in brand strategy, influencer marketing, or partnership building.
  • Excellent communication, team management, and problem-solving skills.
  • Creative mindset with a data-driven approach to decision-making.
  • If you’re passionate about pop culture, thrive in fast-moving digital environments, and have the vision to scale a brand end-to-end, this role is your chance to shape the future of Netflix Junkie.
