Job description
You are not here to polish posts, chase impressions, or manage a content calendar. You are here to make families believe. Texas Sports Academy is building a $25k+/year AI-powered sports-education model for students who want both serious academics and serious athletic growth. The story is still being formed. That is the point.
This work is for someone who can stand on stage, sit in front of a camera, speak to parents, athletes, coaches, media, and civic leaders, and make one clear idea land: this is a new category of school. You will turn student outcomes, athlete stories, and leadership vision into a narrative that every person inside the organization can repeat with force and accuracy. Then you will build the engine that proves it through profiles, video, editorial, data stories, earned media, and public events.
The arc is big. At first, you will build from a blank page: message, proof, voice, content, press, and trust. As the brand grows, you will shape the creative team and set the bar for how TSA shows up in public.
What You Will Be Doing
Build the master narrative and audience-specific messaging for families, athletes, coaches, media, and policymakers
Produce proof-based student and athlete profiles, outcome-data stories, video, and editorial content
Pitch earned media, develop thought leadership, and manage communications during high-stakes moments
Represent TSA on camera, on stage, at events, in podcasts, and with the press
Set the creative quality bar and help the team speak with one clear, credible voice
What You Won’t Be Doing
Paid digital ads, ad buying, cold lead generation, and performance marketing campaigns are not part of this role
Managing backend enrollment operations, CRM administration, or admissions workflows
Chasing vanity metrics such as content volume, impressions, or softened engagement numbers
Hiding behind decks, committees, or internal brand reviews instead of being the public voice
Owning curriculum design, academic planning, fundraising, or investor relations as a core workstream
Chief Content Officer Key Responsibilities
Create a continuous top-of-funnel of families who understand and believe in TSA’s premium AI-powered sports-education model before they reach enrollment.
Basic Requirements
7+ years of experience in persuasive public-facing roles
Experience owning the narrative and public voice of a startup, mission-driven organization, media platform, or comparable public-facing brand
Proven on-camera and on-stage presence as a speaker, host, founder, journalist, creator, or public representative
Ability to build brand narrative architecture and audience messaging from scratch
Strong skill in audience code-switching across families, athletes, coaches, media, and public stakeholders
Hands-on ability to use AI-enabled content production tools to create or direct high-quality content
Passion for sports and student athletics
Austin-based or willing to relocate to Austin, TX for on-site work
Authorized to work in the U.S.
Nice-to-have Requirements
Background in editorial, journalism, broadcast media, communications, strategic sales, or creator-led brand building
Experience turning outcome data into persuasive stories for premium families or high-consideration buyers
Track record earning media coverage without relying on paid demand generation
Experience challenging senior leaders while protecting message quality and brand trust
About Sports Academy
Texas Sports Academy is Where Future Champions Excel in Academics and Athletics

Their innovative K-8 model, based in Austin, TX, uses AI-driven learning to accelerate academics, allowing students to master core subjects in just two hours a day.
The rest of their day is dedicated to athletic training, skill-building, and personal development - so students excel in both their studies and their sport.
By integrating advanced educational technology with structured sports training, they provide a unique learning experience that builds discipline, leadership, and resilience.
It’s academics and athletics in perfect sync.
There is so much to cover for this exciting role, and space here is limited. We look forward to meeting you!
