LOVB MIAMI VOLLEYBALL

Social Media Manager

The club’s voice, often in three languages, every day.  The creator driving energy for LOVB MIA in the city.  The person in the gym with a camera when something worth seeing happens.

About LOVB and LOVB Miami

LOVB Miami Volleyball is League One Volleyball’s professional team in Miami, playing its inaugural LOVB Pro season in 2027. Built from the grassroots up through a network of junior volleyball clubs, LOVB Miami is part of the only professional league in the United States with a fully integrated youth-to-pro ecosystem. The club is shaping a new vision for professional sports in one of the world’s most dynamic markets, built on elite competition, community, and the advancement of women’s volleyball.

LOVB Miami is backed by a best-in-class ownership group of experienced operators and passionate volleyball supporters. We are building the first and greatest women’s sports franchise in Miami, with deep resources, a network second to none, and unmatched ambition to be the best. Our ownership group is committed to a franchise that reflects the culture, energy and diversity of Miami: a cultural anchor of the community and an international beacon for women’s sport with deep connectivity to Latin America.

This is a founding role. You will help build a professional sports club from a blank page in one of the most competitive and most international sports markets in the country.

The Role

The Social Media Manager owns the club’s voice and its daily presence across social platforms. You set the channel strategy, run the calendar, publish, capture, edit, and manage the community — and you do it for a roster drawn from eight countries in a city that consumes content in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

This is a strategy role and a hands-on production role at the same time. You will be shooting on your phone at practice on a Tuesday and presenting a quarterly channel plan on a Wednesday.

The best candidate is a creator themselves, and has a point of view about what makes a professional sports club worth following, including a body of work (personal or work) that proves it.

What You’ll Own

Channel strategy and planning

• Own platform strategy across IG, TikTok, YouTube, X, Whatsapp,Facebook and emerging channels — what each is for, what success looks like on each.
• Build and maintain the content calendar against the season, promotional and partnership calendars.
• Define the club voice and hold it consistently, including in Spanish and Portuguese as appropriate.
• Set the roadmap for repeatable and impactful content franchises rather than relying on one‑off posts.

Content capture and production

• Deliver fast‑turn matchday content: pre‑match, live coverage, highlights, post‑match reaction.
• Manage freelance photographers and videographers, and maintain the asset archive.

Athlete and team storytelling

• Build genuine working relationships with athletes and coaching staff, and earn the access that makes content distinctive.
• Run the athlete content program — cadence, formats, and personal brand support.
• Support athletes’ own channels where it serves both the athlete and the club.
• Handle multilingual storytelling with cultural fluency, not machine translation.

Community management

• Manage daily community engagement, replies, DMs and fan relationships across channels.
• Escalate issues appropriately and follow club and league guidelines on sensitive topics.
• Identify and cultivate creators, superfans and local voices who can extend the club’s reach.

Partnerships and commercial integration

• Deliver contracted partner social assets on time and to spec without eroding the feed’s credibility.
