The posting

Strengthening and empowering all of the communities we serve.

Do you know what makes a Friday night highlight go viral? Can you turn a standout performance into a video fans can't stop sharing? Do you believe, as we do, that New Jersey high school athletes deserve a host who tells their stories like they matter, because they do?

NJ.com is seeking an energetic, creative and audience-focused High School Sports Content Creator & YouTube Host to help lead the next evolution of our award-winning high school sports coverage.

This is a newly created role and a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up.

As the face and voice of NJ.com's high school sports brand across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and emerging platforms, you'll connect directly with athletes, coaches, fans and communities throughout New Jersey. You'll create compelling video content, cultivate audience engagement and help transform the way high school sports are covered and consumed.

The ideal candidate is equal parts storyteller, reporter, host and creator. You understand what makes content resonate on social platforms, can identify trends before they peak, and know how to turn breaking news, standout performances and unforgettable moments into content that audiences can't wait to watch and share.

You'll be joining one of the most respected high school sports teams in the country while helping shape the future of local sports media.

The base salary range for this position is $60,000 - $70,000 annually.

This position requires reliable transportation to meet with sources and cover events throughout New Jersey, including night and weekend hours during peak sports seasons.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Serve as the on-camera personality for NJ.com's award-winning high school sports coverage across YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and other platforms.
  • Create engaging short-form and long-form video content, from athlete interviews and feature stories to highlights, analysis and event coverage.
  • Develop and execute creative content ideas designed to grow audience, engagement and subscriptions.
  • Travel throughout New Jersey to cover major sporting events, championship games and high-profile storylines.
  • Build relationships with athletes, coaches, parents and schools to identify compelling stories and access opportunities.
  • Source and obtain user-generated content that can be transformed into impactful social and video storytelling.
  • Collaborate closely with NJ.com's sports, social media and video production teams to maximize reach and audience impact.
  • Monitor social and platform trends and help shape our strategy as audience habits evolve.
  • Engage directly with fans and followers across platforms, helping grow NJ.com's high school sports community.

Our ideal candidate will have the following:

  • A bachelor's degree in journalism, communications, media production or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Two or more years of experience creating digital content, producing video or working in sports media.
  • A demonstrated ability to create content that drives audience growth and engagement, with an eye to innovation that helps grow and evolve our video coverage
  • A strong on-camera presence with excellent interviewing and storytelling skills.
  • Experience shooting, editing and publishing content for social media and digital platforms.
  • A deep understanding of YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and emerging audience trends.
  • Familiarity with New Jersey high school sports and the communities that surround them.
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
  • Strong organizational skills, self-motivation and the ability to work independently.
  • A collaborative mindset and willingness to work across teams to deliver exceptional coverage.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
