Men in Blazers is the No. 1 Soccer Media Network in the U.S. With a wide reach and a diverse, vocal fan base, we engage with teams, players, celebrity fans, and brands we love, to share our passion for soccer across the nation. Using humor, emotion, intelligence, and to-the-minute pop cultural aptitude, we provide fans with unique content that breaks down the biggest stories in the game in ways that are authentic, meaningful, and compulsively entertaining.
We are looking for a Social Media Manager to join and lead our social media strategy for the VAMOS Network, inclusive of storytelling, audience development, and community engagement across all of VAMOS’ social channels. This role plays a critical role in shaping, and communicating, our social media tone and voice across the entire US Soccer community.

- Oversee all social media and promotional activities across VAMOS brands (e.g. The Give N Go, Duel Nats) and social channels (e.g. Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, X, Discord, etc.).
- Lead content development and work with broader VAMOS to ensure distribution across all channels.
- Stay up to the minute on changes to social media algorithms and content trends, providing regular reports to the team on how to incorporate changes to day-to-day content and work processes.
- Work alongside the VAMOS production team to ideate, create, and deliver unique content; helping identify the best “social” content to generate from video-first productions.
- Work directly with VAMOS and MIB leadership on content strategy, including analytics synthesis, audience insights, and content trendspotting.
- Work in collaboration with other teams across Men in Blazers to execute editorial portions of content for external brand partnerships.

- Proficiency in mobile-first editing suites (CapCut, Adobe Premiere Rush/After Effects) and a keen eye for aesthetic trends that align with VAMOS’ brand identity.
- The ability to see a trending story on Reddit or Twitter and immediately translate it into 3-4 workable content angles for our channels.
- Ability to work with a remotely distributed team and flexibility to work with the soccer calendar (weeknights, weekends) around major happenings in the primary leagues VAMOS covers.
- GFOP level understanding of the current, and historical, tone of the Men in Blazers media network.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
