We’re looking for a dynamic U.S. Content Creator to join City Studios NYC in Manchester, helping us connect with Manchester City’s growing U.S. audience through creative, engaging, and trend-led content. In this hybrid role, you’ll combine production, on-camera presenting, and real-time publishing across platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. You’ll need to be as confident in front of the camera as you are behind it, with strong filming and editing skills, a deep understanding of U.S. sports culture, and the personality to be a relatable voice for our American fans.

Audience Growth & Engagement
- Drive growth and deepen engagement among U.S. audiences through culturally attuned, scroll-stopping content.

- Use insights and data to refine content performance and pitch new ideas.
Collaboration & Campaigns
- Work closely with editorial teams in both Manchester and New York to deliver against shared goals and campaigns.
- Help execute tentpole campaigns and social-first initiatives from ideation through to delivery.
- Adapt and reformat content from across the club to feel native for U.S. fans.
What we are looking for

- Strong video editing skills (Premiere Pro, CapCut, or similar).
- Comfortable and charismatic on-camera, with the ability to speak naturally to a fan audience. Also, experience interviewing talent or creators on-camera.
- Deep understanding of social platforms and what drives performance — particularly TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts.
- Good instincts for U.S. sports and entertainment culture, and how to translate it for a football audience.
- Experience collaborating with high profile athletes, creators, influencers.
- Highly organized, fast-moving, and comfortable juggling multiple priorities.
- Passion for football – with a willingness to immerse yourself in Manchester City FC.
