Managing Editor App

Do you know what makes football fans tap, play, vote and come back for more? Are you an editor who loves creating content as much as leading a team? Then we’d love to meet you. As Managing Editor App, you’ll own the content of 433’s biggest strategic priority: the 433 app.

WE ARE 433
Born from a deep passion for the beautiful game, 433 represents global football culture at its core. With more than 80 million followers worldwide, including many of the sport’s greatest players, we are the largest online football platform in the world. Through close relationships with players, clubs, and leagues, we operate inside the locker room, capturing moments fans never had access to before.

From breaking moments and original formats to new technology, products and creative ideas, 433 is where football culture and digital innovation come together.

ABOUT

THE ROLE
The 433 app is where we turn our audience into an active football community, and content is what makes it worth opening. As Managing Editor App, you own the day-to-day editorial experience: you decide what gets made, in which format and when it goes live. From quizzes, trivia and polls to news and wallpapers, you make sure the app feels fresh, entertaining and unmistakably 433.

This is a player-coach role. You lead a team of 3 app editors, set the editorial bar and help them grow, but a big part of your week is spent curating, creating and publishing content yourself. You’re also part of the shift schedule yourself. Football doesn’t stop at five o’clock, and neither does the app, so you’ll work evenings and weekends when the big games are on.

You won’t do this alone. You report to the Head of Content & Growth and work side by side with the Managing Editor Socials to keep app and social connected. With Product, you shape how content and features come together in the app. With our AI team, you actively explore how content automation and gaming can take the app and its user experience to the next level.

And with Marketing, you turn audience insights into growth.

Most importantly, you don’t just look at what performs. You understand why it performs, and you turn that into better formats, stronger content and a more engaging app.

Key Responsibilities

Own the app content plan and calendar: what gets made, in which formats and when it publishes.

Lead and develop a team of 3 editors, setting the quality and tone bar for all app content.

Stay hands-on, creating and publishing content alongside your team and working shifts, including evenings and weekends.

Work closely with the AI team to increase automated content output and quality.

Run the full format mix of quizzes, trivia, polls, news and wallpapers, and keep the feed fresh and reliable.

Turn engagement and performance data into editorial decisions: double down on what works, cut what doesn’t.

Develop new formats and ideas that drive engagement and give fans a reason to come back.

Share content and feature ideas with Product, and flag what’s underperforming in the current app.

Keep app content consistent with the wider 433 brand and our social channels.

Help your team become better editors through clear feedback, coaching and hands-on support.

What we’re looking for
We’re looking for a hands‑on editorial lead who combines a strong instinct for interactive content with a clear focus on engagement and retention.

You have:

A deep love for football and an eye for every detail of the game.

A finger on the pulse: you follow football news across social channels like X and know exactly which journalists to follow.

Editorial or content experience in social, sports, media or gaming, ideally with interactive formats such as quizzes, trivia and polls.

A proven, hands‑on track record of creating high‑engagement content,…
