Job Description
Job DescriptionWelcome to the Bodega!
Big Bodegas Cards, founded by NBA Champion Karl-Anthony Towns, is a dynamic and exciting trading-card company bringing the culture and energy of the Bodega straight to the hobby world. We are building a loyal community of collectors who love our authentic vibe, exciting breaks, and passion for the hobby.
Join a team that's growing fast and making noise in the card game — this isn't just a job, it's an opportunity to be a part of something great at the highest level. If you want to help shape a brand from the ground up instead of maintaining someone else's, pull up a chair.
The Role
We’re looking for a Content Producer who follows sports like it’s their job and knows the hobby. This isn’t a behind-a-desk social role. You’ll be in the room and on set with athletes, entertainers, and celebrities of all kinds, from NBA stars to music and pop-culture names, capturing the moments fans can’t get anywhere else.
You’ll work with the Head of Social Media on producing content for our Instagram (@bigbodegascards) and TikTok (@bigbodegasbreaks) accounts from first idea to final post. That means pitching concepts, writing scripts, filming, editing, and catching the reactions when something big hits on a break or in the sports world. When a moment happens, you’re the one who sees it and gets it posted while people are still talking about it. This role reports to our Head of Social Media. [Some evenings and weekends are part of the job for big breaks, release days, and events.]
What you’ll do
Create
- Create content with athletes and celebrities who join our breaks, visit the office, or partner with the brand: interviews, skits, reactions, and behind-the-scenes moments
- Film video and photo in the stream room, around the office, and at card shows, games, and events
- Clip the best stream moments into Reels and carousels that drive viewers back to the breaks
- Write, shoot, and edit skits and promos that bring new viewers and buyers to big breaks and release days
- Edit short-form video that hooks in the first few seconds, works with the sound off, and matches the look of our feed
- Turn sports news (games, trades, breakout performances, viral moments) and hobby news (new releases, big pulls, market swings, prospects to watch) into fast, timely content
Planning & Reporting
- Build and run a content calendar of 20+ posts a week across Big Hits, Hobby Education, Break Promos, Community, and Brand content
- Partner with streamers, leadership, and operations so content lines up with what we’re ripping and selling
- Tag breakers, brands, and athletes on every post, and reply to comments early
- Track what other breakers are doing and report weekly on completion rate, saves and shares, follower growth, and comment sentiment
What We’re Looking For
- 1–3 years of experience making short-form content for a sports brand, media outlet, creator, or hobby business (freelance and personal-brand work count)
- A portfolio of short-form work (required)
- Strong sports knowledge across the NFL, NBA, MLB, and beyond, plus a working knowledge of the hobby: products, parallels, and why a rookie card moves the market
- Hands-on experience shooting with mirrorless or DSLR cameras and phones, including lighting and audio basics
- Fast, clean editing in DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, or similar, including captions, sound effects, and graphics
- The organization to juggle shoots, scripts, and deadlines across two platforms
- Comfort using AI tools like ChatGPT or Claude to brainstorm, script, and speed up your workflow
- Proficient in graphic design programs such as Canva and Adobe Photoshop
Bonus Pulls
- You collect, or you’ve worked in live shopping, ecommerce, or creator marketplaces
- You’re comfortable on camera for skits and promos
How we work
- Ownership. If you see a problem, fix it. Don’t wait to be asked.
- Move fast, stay sharp. We post a lot, and every post matters.
- Egos at the door. We give feedback, take it, and fix mistakes quickly.
- Work smarter. If a tool or template saves time, use it.
- Show up. This is an in-person role, because the best content happens in the room where the breaks happen.
Why Join the Bodega
- A challenging, high-visibility role in a fast-growing business
- The chance to shape a growing brand’s voice from the ground up
- A full-time, in-office role at our waterfront office in Jersey City: real time with the team and close to the action
- Annual Salary Range: $60,000 - $70,000
- 25% employee discount on Big Bodegas merch
Before You Submit Your Application
- Links or files for 3–5 short-form videos you’ve made that show off your editing and storytelling (bonus if one is about cards)
- Optional: 3–5 graphics you’ve designed
- A sentence or two on which hobby account does content best right now, and what you’d steal from them
