The Sportway Editorial & Content team is growing, and we are looking for an Editorial Operations Lead to join us. This role focuses on developing scalable content workflows and formats across Sportway's international projects and media properties — with opportunities to grow into editorial strategy, audience development, and international media operations. You will also support Sportway's regional markets as they build and scale their own content production.
In the first phase, you will take ownership of Sportway Sweden's content operations, including Swedish Ice Hockey TV (@svenskhockey.tv) — one of our flagship services covering over 50,000 games per season, including Europe's best junior leagues and the Swedish junior national teams, in close collaboration with Tre Kronor. Proven concepts will be reapplied in other Sportway markets and projects.
This position reports to Sportway Media Group’s HQ in Stockholm.

Experience with live sports, live events, or creator-driven content is a strong advantage.
