The ideal candidate is someone who has exceptional communication skills, loves working with a team of creatives, and is passionate about creating content. You will spearhead all of our content initiatives including; direct response ad creative, social media content, sales and promotion content, email content, blog content, and any other content needs the business has.
Simply put, we need a content marketing badass who has the ability to lead, manage, hire, train, and grow our content team. You must have the ability to work with product development, marketing, and sales to develop strategic content initiatives that help achieve brand goals. You must intimately understand our brand voice, our ideal consumer, and the values of our brand so everything we create is “on brand” and speaks to our ideal customer.

Live Bearded is a fast-paced, dynamic e-commerce company based in Tempe, AZ, and developing a cohesive content strategy with outstanding content that drives results is critical to our success. Founded in 2016 by two best friends, Spencer and Anthony started Live Bearded to help Beardsmen look, feel, and be their best. At LB, we work our asses off, love to have fun, support each other, and, most importantly, support our customers. Over the last 8 years, we’ve had the privilege of serving hundreds of thousands of Beardsman from all over the world, and we are just getting started.
As a brand, we have three content pillars that guide our efforts: educate, entertain, and encourage. First, we want to educate our community on all things related to men’s grooming. Then, we want to entertain them with fun lifestyle content (aka brotherly ball-bustin’ and some good old-fashioned shenanigans). Finally, we want to encourage them with mindset and personal development content.
The right candidate is a highly motivated creative director who loves to work hard, is disciplined, and loves working in a fast-paced, results-driven work environment. You strive to be the best you can be in all areas of your life and are someone who shares these core values:
Actions > Words
- You lead by example in everything you do, walk with integrity, talk with honesty, hold yourself accountable, and always do the right thing. Your standards are high, and your commitment to living with purpose is even higher. You lead, not follow. You believe, not doubt. You create, not destroy. You want to be a force for good.
Whatever It Takes
- You take massive action in the pursuit of your goals, intentions, and commitments. You apply creative problem-solving and critical thinking to find outside-the-box solutions and opportunities in every obstacle and setback. Simply put, you do whatever it takes to get the job done.
Community Obsession
- You believe the greatest gift we can give someone is the gift of being seen, heard, and understood and you strive to give this gift as you support, encourage, and inspire your team, and our community with every interaction. You have a “one client” focus, are obsessed with creating WOW Experiences, and treat everyone with kindness and respect.
Better-Every-Day
- You believe it’s your responsibility to Do Better every day, to learn from your mistakes, grow through your failures, and strive to be the best you can be. You seek personal excellence in all areas of your life, take radical responsibility for your results, and are committed to constant and never-ending improvement.
FREEDOM
- You are a trailblazer who carves your own path and willingly goes into the unknown in spite of fear, doubt, or uncertainty. You embrace the uncertainty of life and live your life by a set of principles and values. You run towards the fight, stand up for what you believe in, and will always hold the line.
Gratitude
- You believe life is happening for you, not to you and you choose to live every day with appreciation and gratitude for the obstacles and opportunities life presents you. You strive to live with a positive, can-do attitude and lead from a place of love, compassion, and kindness.
If this sounds like you and you want to work in a fun, fast-paced, results-oriented meritocracy, you might be the perfect candidate for this opportunity.
