Community & Channel Manager

Help the right families find our stories and want to return.

You’ll help build Kharbasha Planet’s presence on YouTube and other appropriate channels, with parents and caregivers as the people we communicate with. This role combines publishing, clear writing, audience research and practical experimentation. It does not involve private outreach to children.

What you’ll do

• Maintain a realistic publishing calendar and prepare uploads, playlists, episode descriptions and channel updates for approval.
• Develop clear Arabic and English titles, descriptions and thumbnail briefs that represent the actual story. No misleading promises or clickbait.
• Research how parents discover Arabic children’s shows and use those insights in channel organisation, search-friendly copy and distribution ideas.
• Read YouTube Analytics, including impressions, click-through rate, retention and returning viewers. Turn the findings into a small, prioritised set of content and packaging experiments.
• Use native testing tools where available and permitted. Record what changed and what we learned, without treating watch time as more important than children’s wellbeing.
• Manage permitted parent-facing interactions, prepare thoughtful replies and flag safeguarding, privacy, copyright or reputational concerns for review.
• Apply Made for Kids settings and understand the features they restrict. Build a growth plan that does not depend on comments or other unavailable features.
• Use AI-assisted tools for research, drafts and reporting when useful, then check facts, Arabic quality, tone and suitability before review.
• Keep a simple weekly scorecard of published work, audience signals, lessons and next actions. Suggest relevant adult-facing partnerships for approval, without making commitments on the studio’s behalf.

What matters

• Clear Arabic writing and the ability to prepare accurate, natural English channel copy.
• Curiosity about YouTube, audience discovery and analytics, with a willingness to learn through small, sensible experiments.
• Dependable organisation and the ability to turn an idea into a publishing checklist.
• Good judgement about children’s privacy, platform rules and when to escalate a question.
• An interest in storytelling and building trust with families. Relevant personal projects are welcome, not only previous job titles.

What good work looks like

A well-organised channel, accurate and appealing packaging, consistent publishing, and useful evidence about what helps the right audience find and enjoy our stories. Growth should support the shows, not pressure children or undermine trust.
