Channel 4 is a world class entertainment brand. The Social team within 4Studio is responsible for further building our world class social media presence.

We are looking for a stellar Video Operations Manager who can assist us in ensuring all our content published across social media is tracked, monetised, optimised, and reported correctly.

You'll have superb organisational and communication skills, with exceptional attention to detail, able to track and understand a myriad of rights positions per show, channel and platform.

Utilisation of Content ID tools on YouTube and Facebook will be key, enabling you to police, track, block and monetise duplicate content uploaded by others, and being reactive to counter-claims against our own published content.

Working closely with our teams in Social, Rights, Operations and Platform Partnerships, you'll understand the whole process, from the uploading of long-form episodic content for 'fingerprinting' for social, all the way through to tracking monetisation of its performance - and you'll understand and be able to swiftly articulate problems that may arise along the way.
