The posting

Company Description

Are you ready to be a big part of something big?

At carsales, we’re all about making buying and selling a great experience. Since 1997, we’ve been evolving with the new economy to help people choose how they move - today and tomorrow.

When it comes to your career, we want to offer meaningful opportunities that empower you to make a lasting impact. But for that to happen, we strive to feel small - small enough to stay agile, learn across teams, and connect authentically with each other.

With a vision to be the global leader in online vehicle marketplaces, we’re transforming how people buy and sell across the world. We discover new ideas and bring them to life. We continue to grow, and we continue to evolve - and we’re not afraid to take bold steps to get there.

We embrace hybrid working - combining the flexibility of remote work with the energy and connection of in-person collaboration. We champion flexibility and offer a range of policies and leave options to support your wellbeing.

What’s on offer:

  • A place where you can move your career forward, where you’ll be continuously backed to make new ideas happen, and the chance to do work that makes real, significant impact in the world.
  • We’re proud to be recognised as one of Australia’s Best Workplaces™ by Great Place to Work®, a Family Friendly Workplace and a WORK180 endorsed employer for women.
  • The support of a highly engaged, high-performing team including a leadership team that you’ll actually have face time with.
  • 24 weeks paid parental leave for primary caregivers, four weeks paid secondary caregivers leave and paid family & fertility planning leave.

Job Description

What you’ll be doing:

We’re looking for a Video Growth Manager to lead the strategy and growth of carsales’ video audiences across YouTube, and carsales channels. You’ll bring together audience insights, creative direction and production leadership to grow subscribers, watch time, retention and engagement, while strengthening the carsales brand and creating new commercial opportunities.

  • Translate audience insights, platform trends and commercial opportunities into a clear video strategy, programming slate and production priorities.
  • Support and mentor our video production team, building a high-performing culture grounded in creativity, collaboration and accountability.
  • Drive measurable audience growth through performance analysis, publishing optimisation and experimentation with formats, thumbnails, metadata and retention.
  • Develop original video formats, sponsorship integrations and scalable commercial products in partnership with Editorial, Audience Development, Commercial, and Marketing.
  • Share knowledge and contribute as a senior Content leader, championing emerging platforms, technologies and AI-enabled workflows while reporting performance and influencing strategic planning.

Qualifications

What we’re looking for:

We’re looking for someone who brings strategic thinking, creative judgement, commercial awareness and a genuine curiosity about how audiences discover and engage with video.

  • Strong familiarity with video platforms and analytics tools, including YouTube Studio, retention curves, click-through rates, recommendation systems and thumbnail experimentation.
  • A demonstrated track record of growing video audiences, with measurable results across subscribers, watch time, retention or engagement.
  • Sound knowledge of short-form vertical video, multi-platform distribution strategies and emerging audience behaviours.
  • Experience developing commercially successful video products, including sponsorship integrations and branded content, in partnership with sales teams.
  • Proven ability to develop strategy, influence senior stakeholders, and lead and support creative production talent.

We know not everyone will meet every requirement, and that’s okay. If you’re excited about the role and believe you can make a difference, we’d love to hear from you.

Additional Information

  • As an equal opportunity employer, carsales welcomes applications from individuals of all backgrounds, identities, abilities, and life experiences. We are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone feels valued and supported.

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.
