Chive Media Group is a multi-platform digital media and eCommerce company. The company’s flagship brand, theCHIVE, is home to the world’s funniest photo galleries and viral videos, reaching more than 20 million people each month and amassing over 5 billion content views annually. theCHIVE has built an incredible online/offline community through its focus on being a positive escape on the internet.

We’re looking for a hardworking, creative, personality to make, manage, and curate content for “Probably the Best Site on the Internet.”

Wait, nix that last part. Not only should you be able to spot trending content, you must be driven & innovative enough to produce your own original content as well. You should know how to be amusing in both meme and written form. A taller task than you might imagine. We want somebody who can break the Internet while also lending a hand to multiple facets of the company. *This role is located in Austin, Tx - Not remote
