[Hiring] Los Angeles Chargers short form video host @Locked On Podcast Network

Role Description

Do you love the Los Angeles Chargers, live and breathe NFL football, and know how to create content that makes fans stop scrolling? This is your opportunity to help build a new kind of daily team-specific content channel with the #1 Sports Podcast Network.

The Locked On Podcast Network is creating a new team-specific NFL content channel built for modern sports fans across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, Facebook, X, YouTube, and audio platforms. We are looking for a dynamic, entertaining, credible host who can deliver smart, fast-moving team-specific content every day — both short-form vertical and quick daily episodes.

This role is designed for a modern sports content creator: someone who understands the team they cover, knows how fans talk, can deliver strong takes with personality, and has the on-camera presence to make people stop scrolling.

Key Responsibilities

• Host and produce four short-form videos per day, approximately 90 seconds to two minutes each, built specifically for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook.
• Deliver fast, sharp, engaging team-specific takes designed for the vertical-video scroll.
• Host and produce two 5- to 6-minute episodes per day for YouTube and audio distribution with clear structure, strong pacing, and fan-focused insight.
• React quickly to the biggest Chargers stories of the day with energy, credibility, preparation, and personality.
• Help build and grow an engaged Charger community across social, video, and audio platforms.
• Create content that is informative, entertaining, opinionated, and built for daily fan engagement.

Content Formats

• Short-Form Vertical Video
  • Volume: 4 per day
  • Length: Approximately 2 minutes each
  • Platforms: TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, Facebook
• The 5-Minute Show
  • Volume: 2 per day
  • Length: Approximately 5 to 6 minutes each
  • Platforms: YouTube and audio via its own RSS feed

Qualifications

• Elite knowledge of the Los Angeles Chargers
• Ability to connect with your team's fans
• Ability to edit and produce high-quality video
• Access to and experience with video editing tools
• Solid understanding of how social platforms operate
• Experience with creating short-form video content
• Audio equipment and editing software in order to record and produce an audio podcast

Ideal Candidate

The ideal host is part analyst, part entertainer, and part influencer. You understand your team, but you also understand how fans consume content today. You can make a strong point quickly, speak with confidence, bring personality to the screen, and create content that feels current, authentic, and built for the platforms where fans are already spending their time.

You do not need to sound like a traditional broadcaster. We are looking for someone who can become a trusted daily voice for Chargers fans by being smart, prepared, energetic, relatable, and highly watchable.

Application Process

To apply please email Zac Blackerby ( [email protected] ) and Tom Lee ( [email protected] ) with the following:

• One highly produced short. Include images, transitions, captions, and anything that can show us your ability to edit short-form content.
• One short form video with a green screen effect with you reacting to a big tweet, list, post, article, etc.
• Any other information that will help give us more specifics about your ability to create short form content about your team.
