About the Role

This role can be based in LA or New York.

Footballco is looking for an Head of Development / Executive Producer to lead a new department within the content organisation called the “Footballco Originals” team. This an exciting opportunity to build and lead the production of mid and longform football video content, primarily for YouTube but also story-led, mid-length, or feature length football films and documentaries for streaming platforms.

You will lead our most premium and high dollar productions, many featuring A-list talent, and work across our video production org (numbering 30+ producers globally) to surface the best ideas and produce them to a high standard. You will work closely with our audience development team to ensure your videos achieve optimal performance across social media and other distribution channels.

The ideal candidate will have experience working with talent and managing multiple video or film projects simultaneously at different stages of development. We are looking for someone with a passion for storytelling first and foremost, who can recognise good ideas and generate new ones. Finally, production expertise is a must.

We need someone who can oversee a project from script to (mobile and TV) screen, including managing contracts with talent, agents, and football rightsholders (clubs, leagues, federations). Prior football experience is not necessary but a willingness to immerse yourself in the game is required. This job will be all football all the time.

This position is based in our London offices where we work (hybrid) 3 days per week.

What you'll be doing :

• Create video IP that makes us famous with fans and can be commercialised via social platforms, streaming platforms, and / or advertisers.
• Oversee the creative development and production of video projects from pre to post production. Particularly the upper end of our editorial video slate, with more complex shoots, more guests, and more premium styling.
• Work with writers and creatives to refine ideas and provide creative guidance on concepts
• Lead flagship video output from our family of brands such as Indivisa (women’s football), Mundial (football lifestyle), Goal (men’s football), and more.
• Engage external agencies, bookers, and specialists on a per project basis as needed.
• Build and maintain a network of talent relationships to provide access and IP for our projects.
• Cultivate relationships with major streaming platforms by bringing them with you into the role or having the aptitude to create new relationships and open deal flow.
• Collaborate with the global editorial teams at Footballco (video, social, news desk, creators, contributor network) to harness ideas and talent across our business.
• While you do not need to be well versed in every technical aspect of video production, the expectation is that you have one or more deep specialties in directing, writing, cinematography, or more.
• This is a leadership position in the global content organisation and will report directly to the EVP Content & Operations
