Head of Content
Location: Mansfield NG18
Salary: £60,000-£75,000 DOE
Job type: Full-time
Start date: ASAP
About us
RAND is building one of the biggest media and commerce ecosystems in the UK card space.
Across Randolph Pokémon, RandCards, RandSports, RandBreaks, RandHits and our wider founder-led
content, we have constant raw material: live streams, product launches, warehouse moments, card
buying, grading, selling, business decisions, community moments and behind-the-scenes access.
The problem is not lack of content. The problem is turning it into a consistent, high-performing media
machine.
That’s where you come in.
The role
We’re hiring a Head of Content to own the full RAND content engine.
This is not a passive social media role. This is not “make a few posts”. You’ll be responsible for building
the system that turns our businesses, people, streams and founder access into daily content across
YouTube, Shorts, TikTok, Instagram, X and other platforms.
You’ll work directly with Randolph and the internal team to set the calendar, shape concepts, brief editors,
manage output, review performance and make sure the machine keeps moving.
You’ll also lead and build the content team around you. That means working closely with editors,
thumbnail artists, video producers, social/design hires and the wider RAND team to pull content out of the
business every day.
This role needs leadership, but it also needs hands-on taste. You should be comfortable shaping video
ideas, reviewing cuts, giving clear creative feedback, understanding pacing, hooks, thumbnails, brand feel
and what makes content work.
If Randolph is the source material, you are the operator who turns that into consistent, high-quality
content.

channels
Weekly and monthly content calendars

Hands-on creative direction across video, thumbnails, brand content and social formats

Helping hire and manage video, social and design support around the content function
What we need
You should be someone who:
Understands YouTube, Shorts, TikTok and Instagram natively
Has strong taste and knows what makes people click, watch and care
Can turn messy raw material into clear content ideas
Has managed a content calendar before
Can brief editors and creatives clearly
Understands creator-led brands, not just corporate marketing
Is commercially minded: this content exists to build audience, trust and revenue
Can challenge ideas, not just take instructions
Moves fast and takes ownership
Has led or helped build a content team before
Can work with different personalities across a fast-moving business
Has hands-on experience in video, social or brand content creation

Knows enough about editing, filming, hooks and pacing to raise the standard of the team
Bonus if you understand:

YouTube creator businesses
E-commerce or live shopping
Founder-led content
Community-led brands
What success looks like

Less reliance on Randolph manually driving every upload
Clear performance reporting and next actions every week

RAND employees actively feeding moments, ideas and footage into the content system
The kind of person who will do well here
You are not precious. You are not slow. You do not need perfect conditions.
You can look at a warehouse, a stream, a product launch, a voice note or a founder rant and instantly see
five pieces of content.
You understand that content is part creativity, part operations, part psychology, part commercial engine.
Most importantly: you own the outcome
