Own content strategy across social, events, and newsletters for Single Grain and its brands. Work with a dynamic team to create engaging content that drives growth.

Single Grain is a fast-moving, AI-driven digital marketing agency helping top brands like Amazon and Uber grow through Paid Media, SEO, Content, and Creative — powered by a lean, high-performing team focused on smart, impactful work.

Role Mission:

Mission: Build and own a You Tube-first content engine that reliably converts views into qualified email subscribers and ultimately into revenue. You will turn the founder’s ideas, IP, and personality into a scalable media + email funnel that compounds every month. Your success is measured by one simple question:

“Are we growing qualified email subscribers, You Tube views/subs, and downstream pipeline every month—profitably?”

We are not looking for a social media manager.

We are looking for a channel owner
—someone who has actually grown a You Tube ecosystem to meaningful scale and knows how to tie content performance to business outcomes.

As the Head of Brand & Channels
, you will own the strategy, programming, packaging, experimentation, analytics, and funnel integration for all content. You run a small but high-performing pod (editors, clippers, thumbnail designers, distribution operators). You will partner directly with the founder to translate vision → content → growth → revenue.

This is a high-ownership, high-autonomy role. You bring the machine; the founder brings the ideas and approvals.
