About the Role

This is a ground-floor opportunity with a high ceiling. You'll start as a hands-on executor at the center of a livestream program — supporting strategy, production, talent, and performance across platforms.

This role is designed to flex across multiple livestream and social commerce platforms as business needs evolve.

As you grow into the role, you'll take on increasing ownership and help identify and activate new digital connection points, including emerging platforms, AI-powered creative tools, and innovations that extend studio capabilities and reach.

This is a role for someone who wants to build something — and grow with it.

  • Develop smart product bundling strategies aligned with audience behavior and inventory priorities to maximize performance.
  • Partner with merchandising and operations to ensure inventory depth, pricing accuracy, listing quality, and catalog readiness across livestream platforms.
  • Own the run-of-show including hooks, storytelling, demos, user-generated content integration, objection handling, CTAs, and closing sequences.
  • Develop A/B testing plans (openers, sequencing, scripts, thumbnails, duration, and pinning logic).

Production & Execution

Physical Set Operations

Content & Creative

  • Create and iterate on pre-live teasers, countdowns, and post-live content.
  • Develop show graphics, overlays, and storytelling elements.
  • Write clear, high-impact copy for titles, product cards, CTAs, and pinned comments.
  • Use performance insights to inform creative decisions.
  • Manage digital assets from recording through archiving and handoff.

Analytics & Optimization

  • Maintain dashboards and post-show recaps across key metrics such as conversion rate, average view duration, revenue generated, uptime, and engagement.
  • Track additional metrics including units sold, click-through rates, add-to-cart rate, watch time, retention, and order value.
