Rugby Scriptwriter for YouTube Channel

Posted 4 days ago Worldwide
Summary

Summary

My name is Max, and I oversee content for a network of sports-focused YouTube channels that together have amassed over 500,000 subscribers and more than 200 million views. With over two and a half years of experience in the industry, we are now excited to continue growing our rugby channel.

What sets us apart isn't just our experience, but our commitment to quality and passion. We're not here to pump out mass-produced content; we aim to create videos that truly stand out stories crafted by people who genuinely love what they do.

That's why we're looking for a scriptwriter who is not only skilled, but genuinely passionate about rugby.

This point is absolutely essential.

We want someone who follows the sport closely, understands its culture and values, knows the iconic players, rivalries, controversies, and emotional moments, and can bring authenticity to every script. If rugby is just another topic to write about, this role probably won't be the right fit.

Role Overview

We're looking for a scriptwriter who can craft engaging, informative, and well-structured scripts with a strong sense of storytelling and humour. You'll be writing about iconic moments, legendary rivalries, controversies, and the human stories behind rugby's greatest players and most memorable events.

Requirements

A genuine passion for rugby (non-negotiable)

Ability to write in an engaging, conversational YouTube style

Reliability and openness to feedback to continuously improve

Capacity to deliver at least 6 scripts per month (2,000–4,000 words each)

Nice to Have

Previous experience writing for YouTube or sports media

What We Offer

Long-term collaboration and growth opportunities within our media network

A professional, supportive, and passionate creative team

The chance to help build one of the top rugby storytelling channels on YouTube

How to Apply

If this sounds like you, send us a brief introduction and tell us why you're passionate about rugby. We're excited to meet someone who shares our enthusiasm and is ready to help us tell the greatest stories in the sport.
