The Content Code

The Content Code is a premier social media and influencer marketing agency representing global brands across multiple verticals. The company has generated over 5 billion views for clients and is owned by Braden Blacker—one of the youngest NYU speakers and a rising top voice in the creator economy.

We specialize in producing high-performing and creator-driven content that is culturally relevant, fast, and built to dominate digital platforms.

This is a contracted remote role for a Sports Social Media Manager.

In this role, you will create high-impact sports carousel posts, clip and edit live sports moments in real time, and manage multiple social platforms to build engagement and authority for our clients.

You must understand the cultural pulse of sports—memes, storylines, inside jokes, rivalries, and trending narratives—so every piece of content feels native to true sports fans.

This role demands speed, creativity, accuracy, and elite sports IQ—it is not for someone slow or unfamiliar with sports.
