ABOUT THE ROLE
We're hiring a Creative Associate to own the look, feel, and creative quality of Fanatics Casino's organic social channels. This is a hands-on creative role — you'll be shooting, editing, designing, and creating content yourself, as well as overseeing what comes in from our agencies, UGC creators, and freelance partners. You'll work alongside the Social Media Manager and report to the Director of Social Media.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Creative execution
- Shoot, edit, and produce short-form social video content (Reels / TikTok-style clips)
- Design templated graphic assets for social media — maintaining visual consistency while allowing for pillar-specific personality
- Art direct and shoot photography for feed content, ensuring every image meets our brand VI standards
- Edit and finalize video content from external partners (UGC creators, content agency) to meet quality and brand standards
Creative leadership & collaboration
- Translate creative briefs from the Social Media Manager into concepts, then into finished assets — on time and on brief
- Creative-direct UGC creators, giving feedback that gets better output without killing the native feel
- Partner with content agencies on higher-production assets, maintaining brand vision through external production
- Bring proactive ideas to planning: new formats, series concepts, creative ways into cultural moments
- Integrate AI tools into your creative templating and ideation process
Production oversight
- Manage the creative output of freelance graphic designers and the content agency
- Maintain an organized asset library — naming conventions, versioning, and archive
- Balance an always-on production load with ad-hoc and campaign creative needs
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- 3-5 years of creative experience, with meaningful time spent in social-first creative roles — brand-side or agency
- Strong and demonstrable range across three disciplines: short-form video production and editing, graphic design and motion, and photography
- Proficient in: Adobe Premiere Pro or Final Cut, Photoshop, Illustrator, After Effects (or equivalent motion tools), Lightroom or Capture One
- Deep fluency in what actually performs on social — you can spot a scroll-stopper and you know why it works
- Experience building or contributing to a visual identity system — not just executing someone else's templates
- Comfortable working scrappy and elevated in the same week: a lo-fi UGC-style video on Tuesday, a polished branded asset on Friday
- Strong creative direction skills: you can give clear, specific feedback to external creators and get better work back
- Experience in entertainment, lifestyle, gaming, or consumer brand creative is strongly preferred
CONTENT FORMATS YOU'LL OWN
- Lo-fi UGC-style video
- Educational short-form video
- Briefing agencies for higher-production branded video
- Templated graphics
- Feed photography
