Full Job Description

Tour Edge is looking for a highly creative, golf-obsessed Content Producer to help shape the next era of our social presence. This role is built for someone who lives and breathes content — someone who can spot trends early, develop compelling concepts, shoot cinematic footage, edit thumb-stopping videos, and bring the Tour Edge brand to life across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.

You’ll operate like an in-house creator: part storyteller, part filmmaker, part creative strategist. From ASMR club content and cinematic beauty shots to influencer collaborations and social campaigns, you’ll create content that feels authentic to golf culture while elevating the Tour Edge brand.

This role reports directly to the VP of Brand and works closely with the broader marketing and creative teams.

You understand how to make golf feel aspirational, modern, cinematic, and culturally relevant without losing authenticity. You’re constantly collecting inspiration, studying trends, refining your craft, and thinking about the next great shot before the current one is even edited.

If you’re equally passionate about storytelling, social media, and golf culture, we’d love to hear from you.
