About us
Wavelength is a media, marketing and management company. We build brands and drive commercial growth through creator and athlete campaigns, live event activations and guaranteed social media reach. We specialise in sports, health, fitness, automotive and adventure travel.
We run a network of social publishing channels and represent a portfolio of creators, athletes and events. Together they have an audience of more than 320 million fans and deliver over 950 million video views a month across the major social platforms. Our roster includes more than 200 creators and athletes.
The Role
We are looking for a highly skilled and experienced independent Sports content Producer to join us on a project-by-project basis for various productions. We need a creative, self-starting professional who excels at managing production from inception to delivery.
As an independent operator, you will be responsible for the end-to-end management of sports content projects. You should be comfortable working autonomously, bringing high-level production expertise and a "hands-on" approach.
Key Responsibilities:
Manage end-to-end production processes for sports-focused projects.
Lead the creative and operational execution, ensuring high-quality storytelling and technical excellence.
Oversee production timelines, budgeting, and resource management.
Develop and pitch sports content concepts with our commercial and creative team.
Plan, shoot and deliver platform-native social video and longer form content for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Facebook.
Source and manage crew, editors, athletes, creators and suppliers.
Handle production logistics for shoots and live events, including locations, travel, permits, and health and safety.
Work with our social media team to package content for the Wavelength network of social channels and for client and partner channels.
Requirements:
Proven track record as a Sports Producer with a strong portfolio of high-quality content.
Must be an independent operator/freelancer.
Exceptional ability to manage complex production workflows from development through to post-production.
Strong understanding of current sports content trends and audience engagement strategies.
Experience producing social-first video, with a good understanding of how content performs on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Facebook.
A reliable network of crew, editors and suppliers that you can bring to a project.
Experience delivering branded or commissioned content to a client brief for brands, sports organisations or broadcasters.
Working with Wavelength
This is a freelance, project-by-project engagement. You will work directly with our team and we agree on the scope, rate and timelines for each project in advance.
