Content Rights & Operations Coordinator

PlayOn is looking for a part-time Content Rights & Operations Coordinator to support MaxPreps Social’s rights, content operations, and brand-protection work. This role sources, clears, and documents user-generated content and other third-party media, including creator permissions, music and audio workflows, and rights documentation, before and after it goes live. It also keeps content properly tagged in ListenFirst / Talkwater for Sales and social reporting, manages assigned Bolster brand-protection workflows, and helps with social publishing during assigned weekday and weekend coverage. The Outcomes You’ll Deliver: A clear, documented process for how UGC and other third-party content gets its rights cleared before it goes out on MaxPreps Social. Lower risk to the company thanks to solid rights, music, and documentation practices. Content that’s tagged correctly in ListenFirst, so editorial, Sales, and sponsorship teams can trust the reporting. Brand-security threats caught early and escalated through Bolster. Dependable support on social publishing and day-to-day content ops during weekday and weekend shifts. In this role, you can expect to Find creator-owned UGC worth using, reach out for permission with approved messaging, and keep records of those conversations and approvals. Collect and organize original media files, source links, and approval paperwork, and keep the rights tracker up to date. Check UGC for music and audio issues, and follow the approved process for getting clean versions, keeping creator voiceovers, or swapping out audio when needed. Loop in the Social Team Lead and Legal on any rights, licensing, ownership, or policy questions rather than making the call solo. Tag and categorize published content in our analytic utilities (ex. ListenFirst & Talkwater) using our standard metadata (sport, athlete, school, campaign, sponsor, etc.) so Sales and reporting stay accurate. Run the assigned Bolster workflows: review alerts for things like lookalike domains, phishing pages, fraudulent ads, and impersonation, and keep track of what’s been actioned or escalated. Escalate anything that looks fraudulent or malicious through the established process, and flag patterns worth a closer look. Keep an eye on creator communities for noteworthy content and bring good finds to the newsroom. Help with social publishing and day-to-day content work during assigned weekday and weekend shifts, working alongside producers, editors, Sales, and Legal. To thrive in this role, you have Experience in social media, content operations, rights/clearances, licensing, analytics, brand protection, or a related field. Strong organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail. A good grasp of UGC and creator culture, and why documenting third-party rights properly actually matters. Familiarity with copyright, music usage, or media-rights concepts, and good judgment about when to loop in Legal. Comfort managing multiple deadlines and content requests in a fast-paced environment. Experience with social platforms (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, X) and comfort with analytics/tagging tools; ListenFirst experience is a plus. Willingness to learn brand-protection tools such as Bolster. Availability for a part-time schedule that includes regular weekend coverage and designated weekday hours. How You Play Ownership over Participation- You take responsibility for achieving holistic outcomes, prioritize key objectives, and adapt quickly when situations require a different approach. You follow through even against the toughest challenges. Team over Stars- You are a bridge builder, establishing processes and relationships with teams outside your own. You work to rally around common goals, find win-win solutions, compromise when necessary, and help others succeed. Growth over Comfort- You are driven by a desire to grow and actively seek opportunities to expand your comfort zone, skills, and confidence. You embrace new challenges with curiosity, accepting discomfort and failure as opportunities to learn. Fairness over Popularity- You approach decisions with a scientist’s mindset, challenging your assumptions and remaining objective. You consider long-term impact rather than relying on short-term gains, proactively seek others’ perspectives, and manage emotions in decision-making. PlayOn is where high school sports come to life.
