About the role

Lead the vision, voice, and execution for behind-the-scenes storytelling for MrBeast’s channels, building and leading a hands-on team to uncover genuine moments and craft them into compelling narratives across main and BTS content, with a strong YouTube-focused mindset.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the vision, tone, and publishing cadence for the MrBeast2 channel – defining what stories get told, how they’re told, and why they matter.
  • Partner closely with the main-channel production leads to identify compelling arcs during shoots and post-production.
  • Ensure BTS content supports the broader MrBeast ecosystem: main channel, social channels, and brand partnerships.
  • Use YouTube and social analytics to identify formats or story types that drive engagement and iterate quickly based on performance.
  • Collaborate with content leadership to maintain a clear identity and purpose for the channel.
  • Experiment with new formats (vlog, docu-style, mini-series, personality-driven shorts) to expand audience experience.
  • Build and maintain organizational systems for footage management, post workflows, and publishing calendars.
  • Serve as the connective tissue between creative chaos and polished storytelling by turning spontaneous moments into clear, entertaining narratives.

Qualifications

  • 7–10+ years in YouTube or content production, ideally with hands-on experience as a creator or working directly with creators.
  • Proven success leading small, high-output creative teams in fast-moving, creator-driven environments.
  • Deep understanding of YouTube storytelling – pacing, title/thumbnail, and narrative rhythm impact on retention and growth.
  • Strong editorial instinct to identify authentic, funny, or emotionally real content and shape it into watchable form.
  • Ability to think both creatively and analytically, understanding pacing and supporting data.
  • Ability to synthesize chaos into clarity while managing shifting priorities and personalities.
  • Excellent communication and people-management skills to partner with creative leadership and advocate for the team’s needs.
  • Curiosity, humility, and high creative standards.
  • Ability to work onsite in Greenville, NC (relocation support provided)
