Social Media Channel Manager

Miami, FL (Hybrid)

Boats Group, the parent company of Boat Trader, YachtWorld, and boats.com, is hiring a Channel Manager to own audience growth, marketplace inventory distribution, and conversion across social platforms.

This role is responsible for translating marketplace inventory and product capabilities into scalable, high-performing distribution across social channels.

This is not a creative content role. It is a technically-minded channel leadership position focused on:

Audience growth strategy
Marketplace inventory activation
AI-enabled content scaling
Cross-channel distribution infrastructure
Clear communication of technical and platform requirements
As Boats Group continues to scale its marketplaces, this role ensures social channels function as structured distribution engines — not just brand outlets.

What You'll be Doing:

1. Own Audience Growth Strategy Across Social Channels

Set and manage audience growth targets for each social platform in partnership with the Creative Content Director
Define channel-specific KPIs aligned to marketplace traffic, engagement, and lead generation
Partner with the Paid Performance team to accelerate audience acquisition through strategic amplification
Align audience growth strategies to high-value marketplace segments

2. Define Channel-Specific Strategy & Technical Requirements

Develop clear strategic positioning for each platform, emphasizing transactional channels that drive inventory visibility, lead generation, and traffic.
Create channel playbooks outlining:
- Purpose and role of each platform
- Content types and format standards
- Metadata, tagging, and feed requirements
- Posting cadence and performance metrics
Collaborate with and clearly communicate with Product, Data, and Tech teams:
- What data fields are required for effective distribution

How listing data must be structured for social formats

What automation, API, or feed enhancements are needed
Where friction exists in current workflows

This role serves as the bridge between channel performance goals and the technical infrastructure required to support them.

3. Collaborate Deeply with Product & Technology

Partner with Product Managers and Engineering to build scalable systems that “pipe” marketplace listings into social-ready formats
Translate channel needs into clear product requirements and documentation
Ensure listing metadata, structured data, and media assets support distribution at scale
Align social channel capabilities with new marketplace feature launches
Advocate for automation and tooling that improves speed, consistency, and performance

Success in this role requires comfort speaking both the language of growth marketing and the language of product and engineering.2

4. Scale Inventory-Based Video Using AI

Develop AI-enabled workflows to scale short-form and long-form boat review content derived from marketplace inventory
Identify opportunities to automate scripting, editing, voiceover, and formatting
Ensure AI-assisted content meets brand standards and drives marketplace outcomes
Work with content creators to source raw materials and optimize them for structured distribution

5. Content Performance Optimization

Determine which inventory types perform best on which channels
Continuously test format, hook, structure, and CTA placement
Ensure alignment between organic strategy and paid amplification
Drive qualified traffic and leads back to Boat Trader, YachtWorld, and boats.com

6. Cross-Functional Execution

Work closely with:
- Product & Engineering (infrastructure, automation, data feeds)
- Paid Performance (audience acceleration, testing, scaling)
- SEO & Growth (demand capture alignment)
- Content Creators & Video Teams (asset sourcing and optimization)
Provide clear documentation and communication across teams to ensure alignment and execution at scale

What You Should Have:

5+ years of experience in channel management, growth marketing, marketplace distribution, or performance marketing
Demonstrated experience working cross-functionally with Product and Engineering teams
Ability to translate business goals into technical requirements and documentation
Strong understanding of social platform mechanics and distribution systems
Experience setting and managing audience growth targets
Experience with AI tools for video and content scaling
Data-driven and systems-oriented mindset
Strong communicator capable of aligning technical and non-technical stakeholders
