Director of Media
Lead Rankings.io’s in-house media engine: own long-form content, repurposing, and audience growth across podcast, video, and newsletters. Build trust, drive impact, and measure success.
Description
Rankings.io is the premier performance marketing agency for elite law firms — founder-owned, eight consecutive years on the Inc. 5000, and serving 250+ law firms nationwide. Our internal media production house powers the podcasts, video series, newsletters, and long-form content behind every house brand: Rankings.io, Personal Injury Mastermind (PIM), PIMCON, LawHer, and more.
We're looking for a Director of Media who is, first and foremost, a production house operator — someone who has built and run content engines and understands how long-form media creates trust, grows audiences, and turns listeners into true believers.
You'll run a fully internal media production house with the creative latitude of a media brand and the commercial accountability of a marketing function. The content you build will be the primary vehicle through which Rankings.io maintains its authority across the legal marketing landscape — and increasingly, the foundation of how we show up in AI-driven search.
Curiosity is welcomed, innovation is expected.
What You'll Own
Content Production & Repurposing
Own the long-form content engine: editorial calendar, pillar content strategy, and the repurposing system that turns one episode into a full suite of channel-specific assets
Set and maintain production standards worthy of a media house: editorial rigor, consistent voice, and content PI attorneys share with colleagues
Lead development of new shows, content lines, and formats that extend reach and deepen audience relationships
Generative Search Visibility
Design pillar content to fan out across the specific, narrow questions our audience is asking AI tools
Coordinate topic planning to cover the full surface area of core issues — operational, financial, and strategic pain points — not just marketing angles
Stay current on how generative search is evolving and adjust strategy accordingly
Audience Growth
Own systematic growth strategies across podcast, newsletter, YouTube, and cross-channel distribution
Use audience data and engagement signals to continuously refine editorial direction
Channel Leadership
Podcast: Personal Injury Mastermind and future shows
Newsletter: Content direction and subscriber growth
Magazine: Editorial development for PIM Magazine
YouTube: Content strategy and discoverability
Attribution & Performance
Own UTM architecture across all media channels with consistent naming conventions and clean data
Understand media attribution inside HubSpot: multi-touch models, lifecycle influence, and contact timelines
Build dashboards that give leadership an honest view of how media investment drives audience growth and downstream revenue
Team & Vendor Leadership
Lead direct reports, contractors, and production vendors
Collaborate with Brand, Events, and Demand Gen to integrate media into campaigns and the full marketing calendar
Contribute to PIMCON programming and sponsorship strategy
Requirements
7+ years in senior media, content, or editorial leadership — you've owned a content program at scale
Demonstrated experience growing B2B audiences through podcasting, newsletters, video, or editorial publishing
A documented approach to content repurposing and atomization — you've built the system
Active, fluent use of AI tools in a production context
Working knowledge of marketing attribution and UTM architecture
Comfort with HubSpot or a comparable CRM
Nice to Have
Experience structuring or selling media sponsorships
Background building community around media content — forums, live events, LinkedIn communities, or similar
Familiarity with content licensing or co-production partnerships
Benefits
Starting Salary of $120,000 (commensurate with experience)
Fully Remote
Unlimited PTO
$100 Wellness Reimbursement Program
Quarterly training stipend for Professional Development
401(k) with 3% Employer match (Safe Harbor)
