Podcast Distribution & Growth Manager - PodcastHub
Headquarters: UAE, Dubai
Website: http://podcasthub.ae
We're looking for the person who takes a finished episode and makes it reach and grow an audience. You'll own how our shows perform on YouTube, Spotify and Apple — the titles, thumbnails, chapters, publishing, and the short-form that pulls new viewers in. We handle production in Dubai; you own distribution and growth. We're hiring in the US/UK because that's where the deepest podcast-growth talent lives.
What You'll Own
Publishing & Optimisation
- Upload and schedule every episode across YouTube, Spotify, Apple and the clip platforms.
- Craft titles, thumbnails, descriptions, chapters/timestamps and tags — optimised per platform.
- Handle Spotify video setup, the Apple feed, YouTube "Set as podcast", captions and transcripts.
- Run a per-episode quality checklist before anything ships.
Growth
- Own YouTube & Spotify growth strategy — read the data and double down on what works.
- Build the short-form plan (Shorts, Reels, TikTok) to turn viewers into subscribers.
- Track views, retention, subscribers and CTR, and feed insights back to the team.
- Stay ahead of platform changes and podcast trends.
What We're Looking For
- A proven track record growing a podcast or channel on YouTube + Spotify — show us the numbers.
- Deep knowledge of YouTube SEO, thumbnails, Spotify/Apple publishing and Shorts strategy.
- Hands-on with YouTube Studio, Spotify for Creators and analytics tools.
- Based in the US or UK, working remotely, with overlap hours for Dubai.
- Organised, data-driven, and someone who closes loops.
Bonus
- Experience with video podcasts specifically.
- Editing/thumbnail literacy (enough to brief and review).
- Familiarity with the clip / content-reward model.
