Description
MEDIATECH
Mediatech is one of the fastest-growing digital publishing houses, reaching over 25 million people every month across Cybernews, Wellness Pulse, InvestorsObserver, and our wider network.
We deliver trusted, independently researched insights across tech, cybersecurity, health, and finance. Our investigations have exposed major security issues at NASA, WhatsApp, ChatGPT, PayPal, LinkedIn, and the Red Cross, and uncovered the largest-ever password leak (RockYou2024).
We’re a team driven by curiosity, impact, and fast growth - and we’re looking for people who want to build with us.
YOUTUBE DEPARTMENT
Join the team behind one of the fastest-scaling tech media brands on YouTube. Cybernews already reaches a massive global audience, with around 900K subscribers and more than 2.5K videos published on the channel. This is not a build-from-zero role - it’s an opportunity to lead an established YouTube ecosystem with real brand recognition, strong momentum, and clear commercial potential.
You’ll step into a department with the scale, talent, and ambition to grow not only the Cybernews brand on YouTube, but also channels across wellness, finance, and other verticals - strengthening performance across the portfolio, opening new business opportunities, and turning audience growth into meaningful revenue impact.
YOU
You are a goal and revenue-driven YouTube leader who knows how to grow channels, build strong teams, and scale results. You love YouTube, understand what makes content win, and know how to turn audience growth into real business impact.
You’re confident leading through team leads, building high-performing structures, and aligning different functions behind a shared direction. Alongside the YouTube team, you’re comfortable overseeing editorial and social media functions that play a key role in shaping the Cybernews brand. You’re excited by both the creative and commercial side of the business, and motivated by the opportunity to lead an established brand into its next stage of growth.

- Define and drive the overarching YouTube strategy, translating business goals into clear priorities, scalable growth plans, and high-impact execution
- Provide strategic leadership across the broader content ecosystem, overseeing senior editorial leadership and partnering closely with the social media function to ensure strong brand alignment, consistent quality, and sustainable growth across platforms
- Lead and develop team leads and senior creatives, building a high-performing organization with clear accountability and strong execution standards
- Sustain the operating model, processes, and decision-making frameworks needed to support high-quality content production at scale
- Identify emerging trends, audience shifts, and whitespace opportunities, and convert them into scalable content formats and new growth avenues
- Build a repeatable approach to testing new concepts, evaluating performance, and scaling successful initiatives
- Use data, KPIs, experimentation, and performance insights to make high-quality decisions and continuously improve results
- Ensure the department is set up to deliver both short-term performance and long-term brand and business impact
WHAT WE EXPECT
- Proven experience leading large content, media, or YouTube teams at department level
- Strong leadership skills with experience managing team leads and building high-performing teams
- A track record of driving revenue growth and delivering against ambitious business targets
- Strong analytical thinking and confidence working with metrics, experiments, and performance insights
