MaxPreps, a division of PlayOn Sports, is America’s Source for High School Sports — connecting fans, athletes, and communities through the stories and highlights that define local sports culture. We celebrate the young men and women who inspire their hometowns through dedication, teamwork, and excellence.

We’re looking for a Video Producer who can own end-to-end video storytelling across MaxPreps’ editorial, social, studio, and sponsored content. This role blends creative development, hands-on production, and cross-functional collaboration — ideal for someone who can concept, produce, edit, and deliver high-quality video at scale.

You’ll work closely with editorial, sales, programming, and production teams to turn ideas into polished video experiences — from short-form storytelling and podcasts to sponsor-ready series and event-based productions.
