About the Role

Sportsbet is on the hunt for a Social Content Creator with a sports brain, an AFL obsession, and a meme-maker’s touch. You’ll join a team who are redefining how Aussies engage with sport — by creating thumb-stopping, laugh-out-loud content across all of our social channels.

We’re looking for someone who’s quick, creative, and knows how to land an original, hilarious joke. You’ll cover everything from AFL clangers and clutch moments to breaking news and big talking points across the sporting world — and turn them into videos, memes, and social gold.

If you know your memes, your memes know you, and you're as comfortable in Adobe as you are sitting back on the couch watching the game, we want to hear from you.

You will:

  • Create scroll-stopping content across AFL, sports, racing, and pop culture — with a lean toward meme formats, short-form videos, and reactive social content
  • Ideate and pitch content across platforms including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, with a focus on humour, relevance, and brand tone of voice
  • Plan and react to major sporting moments — from key AFL matches to viral sporting chaos
  • Turn breaking news into bite-sized entertainment in real time
  • Write one-liners, scripts, captions, and visual ideas that nail our tone of voice
  • Contribute fresh gags and concepts to daily and weekly content meetings
  • Design and produce social content — including video memes, photoshops, short edits, GIFs Confidently use tools like Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro, CapCut, After Effects (bonus points), Canva etc.
  • Innovate with AI tools to generate seamless content that remains on brand
  • Actively publish and schedule content, both reactive and planned, across Sportsbet’s social accounts
  • Be ready to get on camera or behind it when needed

This role requires the occasional weekend work as you cover live games or nights around big events — Grand Final, Brownlow, State of Origin, etc.

About You

  • Strong knowledge of sports, particularly AFL — you're across all teams, key players, stats, history and storylines
  • A positive and collaborative attitude that loves to win alongside your team
  • An innate sense of humour and timing — you know how to pull the right rein at the right time
  • A proven track record creating content that performs on social platforms
  • Speed, agility, and an eye for what’s trending in sport and online culture
  • Confidence in editing video and static formats using Adobe Suite or similar tools
  • Ability to write in a clear, funny, and brand-aligned tone

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • 25 days annual leave
  • Genuine flexible working policy
  • $1050 work-from-home allowance to set up your home office
