About the Role

The Manager, Digital Content Distribution works at the intersection of content strategy, digital publishing workflow, and audience analytics, supporting titles across FOX’s broadcast network, unscripted productions, and animation slate including properties from Bento Box Entertainment.

• Own thumbnail, title, and description strategy across the content library, applying a working knowledge of YouTube search and browse behavior to improve click-through and retention.
• Use YouTube Analytics and third-party tools to surface performance trends and translate findings into concrete recommendations for both creative and distribution strategy.
• Maintain publishing calendars in close coordination with programming, marketing, and social media teams to ensure episodic television and unscripted content launches are sequenced effectively.
• Test and evaluate content formats including clips, full episodes, and Shorts, working alongside producers and editors to ensure assets are packaged for platform performance.
• Report regularly on channel health, audience sentiment, and growth metrics, presenting learnings to cross-departmental stakeholders and contributing to KPI development.

What You Bring

• Hands-on experience managing a large YouTube channel, ideally within a broadcast television, streaming, or entertainment studio environment.
• Proficiency with YouTube Studio, YouTube Analytics, and familiarity with third-party digital video analytics platforms.
• A track record of content optimization across metadata, thumbnails, and publishing cadence that demonstrably moved audience or retention metrics.
• Ability to work across departments including production, marketing, and external agency partners within a structured episodic or seasonal content calendar.
• Strong command of how algorithm behavior, audience development, and content packaging interact on the platform.
