## Job description

The Daily Wire is looking for a Social Platform Specialist with a sharp eye for the moments that make people stop scrolling. You’ll turn podcasts, debates, interviews, live events, and text-based content into timely, culturally resonant social assets.

- Repurpose long-form content into compelling, platform-native clips optimized for engagement and audience behavior.
- Enhance content with subtitles, on-screen text, motion graphics, and other creative elements tailored to each platform.
- Support publishing and scheduling across platforms including YouTube, TikTok, Meta, X, and Reddit.
- Write compelling titles, coordinate thumbnails, and optimize posting times, tags, and content categorization.
- Monitor reach, engagement, watch time, retention, and other performance metrics, using insights and A/B testing to improve future content.
- Collaborate with Platform Specialists and Social Leadership to align creative with platform strategy, performance goals, and publishing priorities.

## Experience & Requirements

- 2–3 years of hands-on short-form video editing or clipping experience, or an equivalent portfolio demonstrating relevant skills.
- Proficiency in video editing software such as Premiere Pro, CapCut, or similar, with a strong eye for pacing, subtitles, motion graphics, and on-screen text.
- Deep understanding of major social platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, X, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, and Snapchat.
- Strong instincts for social-first content, audience engagement, emerging trends, and what makes content perform.
- Interest in and familiarity with the political, cultural, and editorial news landscape.
- Strong understanding of the Daily Wire brand, voice, and Talent.
- Working knowledge of platform analytics tools and ability to use performance data to inform creative decisions.
- Highly organized and detail-oriented, with excellent proofreading, grammar, and written communication skills.

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: The Daily Wire is a privately held, right-leaning media company producing news, opinion, podcasts, and entertainment content across digital, audio, and video platforms.
- **Entity Type**: Private (total funding $50M; no disclosed series stage)
- **Headquarters**: Nashville, Tennessee, United States
- **Founded**: 2015
- **Founders**: Ben Shapiro, Jeremy Boreing, Caleb Robinson

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Media Production / Digital Media
- **Target customers**: B2C – primarily right-of-center consumers seeking news, commentary, and family-oriented entertainment.
- **Mission / purpose**: To create unparalleled content that provides a voice for facts and freedom, setting trends rather than echoing them.

## Products & Services
- **DailyWire.com**: News and opinion website covering politics, culture, education, and sports.
- **Podcasts**: Flagship shows including *The Ben Shapiro Show*, *The Michael Knowles Show*, *The Matt Walsh Show*, and *The Andrew Klavan Show*. Chart-topping in the conservative podcast space.
- **DailyWire+**: Subscription video-on-demand platform launched in 2022, featuring podcast videos, documentaries (e.g., *My Dinner with Trump*), and original series. Surpassed 1 million paid subscribers by November 2022.
- **Bentkey**: Children’s entertainment streaming service launched in October 2023, with preschool series like *Chip Chilla* and other family content. The company pledged at least $100M over three years for children’s programming.
- **Film & Scripted Content**: Feature adaptations including *Atlas Shrugged* and *The Pendragon Cycle* series (planned release 2026).

## Market Standing
- **Valuation / Market cap**: Not publicly disclosed.
- **Key metrics**:
  - **Annual Revenue**: Discrepancy in reports – publicly available data (Zoominfo/LinkedIn) estimates **$25M–$50M** for 2025/2026, while Wikipedia reports the company exceeded **$100M** in early 2022 ([wikipedia.org](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Daily_Wire)).
  - **Total Funding**: $50M (seed round from Farris Wilks in 2015, no subsequent rounds reported).
  - **Paid Subscribers**: 1M+ (as of November 2022); 890K (June 2022).
  - **Headcount**: 149 employees (11% YoY growth), with offices in Nashville, TN (HQ) and remote staff across the US, Pakistan, Kosovo, and Canada.
- **Notable Investors / Partners**: Farris Wilks (billionaire oil magnate) provided initial $4.7M; DailyWire Ventures, LLC manages the entity.
- **Growth Signals**:
  - Launched DailyWire+ (2022) and Bentkey (2023), expanding into original entertainment.
  - Investment of $100M+ in children’s content.
  - Recent leadership changes: Mike Richards (former *Jeopardy!* EP) appointed CEO in May 2026 after Caleb Robinson resigned; Jeremy Boreing stepped down as co-CEO in March 2025.
  - However, the company laid off 13% of its staff in May 2026, primarily in Nashville.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Brand loyalty**: Captive audience among conservative consumers; strong podcast hosts with dedicated followings.
- **Vertical integration**: Owns direct-to-consumer distribution via DailyWire+ and Bentkey, reducing reliance on third-party platforms.
- **Contrarian positioning**: Explicitly positioned as a counter-cultural alternative to mainstream media and entertainment (e.g., Disney).
- **Original IP**: Exclusive film/TV adaptations of popular conservative/book properties.

## Strategic Focus
- **Children’s entertainment**: Continue building Bentkey as a rival to mainstream kids’ content.
- **Scripted originals**: Release *The Pendragon Cycle* (2026) and other long-form productions.
- **Podcast network expansion**: Leverage existing hosts to launch new shows and grow subscriber base.
- **Digital advertising & subscription revenue**: Balance ad-supported website with subscription VOD.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as fast-moving, innovative, and trend-setting; emphasis on creative freedom within a mission-driven, right-of-center environment.
- **Work Policy**: Mix of onsite (Nashville HQ) and remote roles (e.g., Account Executive, Remote USA). Some positions part-time remote.
- **Perks / Engineering Culture**: Not extensively detailed, but the company reports a flat seniority structure (30% specialists, 24% other management). Notable talent sources include Netflix, WarnerMedia, Fox News, and Ramsey Solutions.
- **Employer Ratings**: Low overall rating on LinkedIn (2.4/5 based on 31 reviews). Work-life balance is the lowest-scored factor (1.9/5), compensation (2.8/5), culture (2.3/5). This suggests a demanding environment with high expectations.
- **Recent Departures**: Key executives left in 2026 (EVP Marketing, COO); CEO changed twice in 2025-2026. The company is in a period of leadership transition.
- **Open Roles**: As of the search date (Sep 2026), 4 active postings: Producer, Marketing Manager (Entertainment), Copywriter, Technical Supervisor. Posting volume declined ~60% monthly.
