Head of Content & Creative

Location: Surfers Paradise, Gold Coast QLD

Duration: Full time

Salary: $100,000 - $130,000 + KPI bonus

Snapshot of the Role

Build a 50-piece-per-week media engine, launch a flagship podcast, and make Simon Beard the go-to voice for Australia’s next-gen entrepreneurs.
We already have editors, designers, dashboards, gear—even a brand-new studio on the Gold Coast.

What we don’t have is one owner who can knit it all together, turn raw footage into a 50-piece weekly cadence, and convert that attention into deal flow for Beard.com.

If you’ve scaled a founder-led brand (or podcast) from obscurity to ubiquity—and you love high-performance health, breakthrough tech, and purpose-driven business—read on.

Day-to-day

  • Manage end-to-end podcast production (guest booking → clip repurposing).

  • Design “containers” that capture Simon in flow (marathon prep, Kings-Club-style Q&As, board-meeting BTS).

  • Run the 70 / 20 / 10 content board; deliver 10 % wild-card experiments each month.

  • Track the only metric that matters—followers per post—and course-correct fast.

  • Build and coach a remote creative pod (PH editors + local shooters).

  • Launch DM-keyword & email automations that push warm fans into deal-interest funnels.

  • Guard the brand voice: pro-entrepreneur, anti-dinosaur-corporate, radically transparent.

What Does Success Look Like?

  • Simon records ~4 h per week; the right audience feels like he is all over online.

  • He’s recognised as Australia’s leading voice for next-gen entrepreneurship and operating—championing health, tech, and purpose, miles apart from dinosaur corporate culture.

  • Followers watch him walk the talk: hybrid-athlete training, marriage & family leadership, building brands with his kids.

  • Beard.com’s inbox overflows with founders, creators, and elite operators who already align with those values.


You’ll Bring

Must-haves

  • Proven record scaling a founder brand from <100 k to 500 k+ followers or driving a podcast to 100 k+ downloads in ≤12 months.

  • Hands-on producer—comfortable with DSLRs, Rode/SM7B, Riverside/Zoom, lighting.

  • Equal parts creative & data-driven: can craft a 10-word hook, then audit a KPI sheet.

  • Managed a distributed team of editors/contractors and held them to scorecards.

  • Lives on (or willing to relocate to) the Gold Coast with flexibility for travel.

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience inside PE / VC, high-growth e-com, or creator education.

  • Familiarity with AI post-production tools (OpusClip, Descript, ElevenLabs).

  • Ready to appear on camera as occasional co-host or hype voice.

  • Network of Aussie shooters/editors you can tap on day 1.

What’s on Offer

  • Salary: Approx. A$100k - A$130k base (commensurate with experience) + performance bonus (up to 30%).

  • Flexibility: Hybrid role with Gold Coast office access and monthly strategy days in-person.

  • Impact: High-autonomy environment with direct collaboration with the founder.
