Job Summary

Own and produce Ladder's on-camera fitness content across platforms, building repeatable series, leveraging real training expertise, data-driven iteration, and close collaboration with creators.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Serve as the recurring on-camera face of Ladder across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube
  • Own content end to end — concept, shoot, edit, publish — at the pace the platforms require
  • Build and star in repeatable series that give an audience a reason to return, rather than one-off posts that disappear
  • Translate real fitness expertise into content that holds attention: make progressive overload, program design, and training psychology land with people who have never encountered those ideas
  • Create alongside our coaches and celebrity partners, and draw the best possible performance out of them on camera
  • Read performance data closely and let it shape what you make next
  • Partner with our Senior Manager, Brand Social and the wider creative team on the direction of the channel

Requirements

  • Located in Austin, TX
  • A real body of work — an audience you built yourself, with content you personally appeared in, wrote, shot, and edited
  • On-camera presence that reads as a person, not a presenter. Articulate, genuinely funny, and comfortable carrying a piece on your own
  • Expert-level iPhone production and CapCut editing. You can take an idea to a finished cut without a crew or a post house
  • Deep, hands-on fitness knowledge with genuine strength training experience — you can speak credibly about programming because you have actually done it
  • A sharp instinct for cultural trends and for how formats differ across platforms
  • Willingness to be Ladder's creator exclusively. This is a full-time commitment to our brand, not a salary layered beneath a personal brand or competing partnerships
  • A collaborative, no-ego approach to feedback and iteration

Benefits

  • The best team in fitness
  • Access to the sickest private gym in Austin
  • Incredible marketing campaigns with the world’s most expert coaches, and top celebrities, alike
  • Equity in Ladder
  • Access to Company Insurance (Health, Dental, Vision)
  • Company-wide events
  • Unlimited PTO
  • New Company Computer
  • Free Ladder membership, Ladder swag, etc.
