JOB DESCRIPTION
FOX Sports Digital is looking for an AI Newsroom Editor of Content Distribution to join the editorial team in our Los Angeles office. You are both the driver of execution and the navigator of strategy among our editorial content and content distribution, particularly around AI initiatives. You attack with direction, not just motion - knowing where the brand has been, where it is, and where it needs to go. You're a thinker-doer who can zoom out to build macro-level strategy based on insights (data, social listening, competitive analysis, AI tools), then zoom in to execute tactically, willing to step in directly when needed, like a free safety or utility player. You will help the Manager of Content Distribution to oversee all O&O content distribution for the biggest events and moments in sports with an emphasis on FOX, FS1, and league partners, while utilizing the latest technology and AI enhancements to unlock insights and efficiencies.

Executional Flexibility
Fill gaps where needed - can jump in to write copy, edit headlines, edit stories, etc.
Provide "bench strength" when fire drills arise, or bandwidth is tight
