REPORTING TO: Guest Booking Team

LOCATION: On-site London

SALARY: Up to £30,000 (Fixed Term Contract)

ABOUT FLIGHTSTORY

We are a media and investment company, and we are on a mission to elevate the stories, build the communities, and support the founders that inspire a happier, healthier humanity. We scale creator-led media, ventures and communities.

ROLE MISSION

Help us book world-class guests by knowing the YouTube landscape better than anyone in the room.

You will sit inside the DOAC guest booking team and use your deep knowledge of the YouTube and podcast world, combined with data from a suite of tools, to surface the right guests at the right time. You'll turn what you already know about creators, audiences and content trends into guest recommendations that give Diary of a CEO (DOAC) a genuine edge.

On any given day you might be deep in YouTube Analytics tracking a guest's recent performance, building out a shortlist of emerging creators to bring to the team, or presenting your findings in a guest booking meeting. You'll work closely with the guest booking team who are responsible for bringing DOAC's guests to the show, and your insights will feed directly into decisions on potential guests.

KEY OUTCOMES

Monitor YouTube, podcast charts and social platforms continuously to identify emerging guests, rising creators and shifting audience interests in both the UK and US.

Use analytics tools to pull performance data on potential guests and present findings to the booking team in a clear, usable format.

Build and maintain a living knowledge base of who's who across the long-form podcast and YouTube ecosystem; their audiences, their recent content, their trajectory.

Spot guests before they peak. Flag creators gaining momentum before they become obvious choices.

Provide data-backed context for every guest recommendation including views, engagement, audience overlap and topic timing

Support the broader pre-production team with research, audience insight and competitor show analysis.

YOU'LL THRIVE HERE IF

YouTube is genuinely where you spend your time. You notice when a guest has a breakout episode. You track subscriber counts. You have opinions about why certain videos perform and others don't.

You don't need years of formal experience. What matters is that you live and breathe this world. What sets you apart is genuine obsession with YouTube and the podcast landscape and the curiosity to turn that knowledge into something useful.

You're comfortable working with data and analytics tools to find answers and present them clearly. You're organised, proactive and enjoy being part of a fast-moving creative team.

You find yourself asking:

Why did that episode blow up?
