Work closely with Creative Producers and social team to finalize the packaging creative direction
Work closely with the Design team to ensure the brief translates accurately into the final thumbnail
Own the full YouTube scheduling process end-to-end — including tags, chapters, and end screens — across all ACQ brands
Conduct final QC checks before every upload - confirming packaging alignment, metadata accuracy, and technical spec compliance
Develop and run a consistent A/B testing framework for thumbnails and titles across new and catalogue videos
Maintain a forward-looking upload calendar, coordinating with thumbnail designers, editors and post-production to ensure on-time delivery without last-minute scrambles

Build and maintain AI agent-powered workflows for data compilation, anomaly detection, and performance reporting
Present weekly performance insights to Media Leadership, including Media and Marketing Directors, Post and Design Directors, and Creative Producers
Translate analytics into actionable creative, writing, and production insights for the content team to consider - not just observations
Benchmark channel performance against competitors and category trends to identify gaps and opportunities
Systematically audit and re-optimize videos 1+ years old - refreshing thumbnails, titles, descriptions, and metadata to drive renewed discoverability
Build a prioritization framework for catalogue work based on impression potential, existing traction, and strategic alignment
Track performance lifts from catalogue optimization and report on compounding revenue and performance impact over time
Treat the back catalogue as a living asset, not an archive

Stay ahead of policy changes, monetization updates, and algorithm shifts communicated through the partner relationship
Advocate for channel features, beta access, and platform support on behalf of ACQ Media
Communicate relevant platform updates to internal stakeholders clearly and promptly

Evaluate new features against ACQ Media's content strategy and present recommendations to media leadership with a clear test-and-measure approach
Lead rollout and tracking of approved feature experiments
Build a feedback loop to assess whether new features are worth embedding into standard operating procedure
