Senior Platform Strategist - YouTube

LOOP is a digital-first lead agency, exploring the intersections between design, technology and digital brand building for leading brands. With a team of 400 digital talents and through data driven marketing, we help brave clients to stand out in the digital age. Over the last few years our brilliant team has done remarkable and innovative work for internationally recognised high-profile brands such as Puma, Audi, Breitling, Red Bull and numerous others.

At LOOP, social isn’t just distribution — it’s culture. We’re looking for a YouTube-focused Senior Platform Strategist who lives at the pulse of the internet and turns cultural heat into sharp, high-impact content. This role blends strategic rigor with creative instinct, operating where culture, creativity, and performance meet to make YouTube a living, breathing platform — not just a channel. 

You’ll think on a senior level, see like a creative, and obsess like a true YouTube native. Deeply enthusiastic about platforms and algorithms, you’ll iterate relentlessly, refine ideas until they’re razor-sharp, and translate trends, formats, and audience behavior into YouTube-first concepts that are visually bold, culturally fluent, and built to perform.

• Own YouTube End-to-End: Lead the brands global YouTube strategy from platform logic and creative vision to execution, posting, and performance impact. 
• Think Strategically at Senior Level: Shape clear, confident strategic narratives and refine decks relentlessly until ideas are sharp, focused, and undeniable. 
• Design YouTube-First Concepts: Develop platform-native formats, episodic shows, and long-form ideas that drive reach, watch time, and repeat viewing. 
• Stay Algorithm-Obsessed: Anticipate YouTube trends, audience behavior, and algorithm shifts, translating platform signals into timely creative direction before moments peak. 
• Inject Trends into Brand Moments: Add smart, timely cultural and platform insights to product launches and brand rollouts without losing brands’ DNA. 
• Think Visually First: Develop concepts with a strong visual instinct, balancing clarity, drama, and cultural relevance. 
• Benchmark to Win: Constantly analyze top brands, creators, and competitors — then raise the bar beyond them. 

• 4-day Workweek: At LOOP you can choose between a 5-day or a 4-day workweek – and have the freedom to switch between these models twice a year.
• Free Sports and Fitness: Yoga, fitness, climbing, tennis and more. LOOP covers the costs and gives you access to fitness studios and sports facilities across Austria or Germany.
• +20% Vacation: We don’t believe there can be enough time to recharge, that’s why all our team members get +20% vacation days per year, we call it Sunny Hours.
• 4000+ m² Office Space: Our loft space is part of our identity. An ideal environment for working, collaborating and finding inspiration — with an additional 600m² film- and photo studio.
• 100% Hybrid Work: Home office or LOOP office space? It’s your choice every day, and you don’t even need approval.
• International and Diverse: Team members from 40+ different nationalities in 7 locations, English as main language and a 55% female leadership quota.
• And much more: Language Courses, Visa Support, LOOP.Horizon workshops and trainings, Klimaticket Contribution, Audiobook Library, Headspace App Subscription, etc.

That’s our baseline for candidates who meet the key requirements. If you bring more to the table — deeper experience, sharper skills — we’re ready to reflect that in your offer.
