Wij zoeken een Storytelling Lead voor KLABU!

Since KLABU’s founding in 2019, storytelling has been an essential part of the organisation’s identity. It helps build bridges between KLABU’s sports clubs and the rest of the world, while reframing perspectives on refugees by highlighting their talent and potential.

Over the years, KLABU has collaborated with strong creative partners and gradually built a small but ambitious storytelling team, including creators within the communities it works with. The organisation is now looking for a leader who can bring these elements together.

The Storytelling Lead will work closely with KLABU’s Brand Creative Director and join the Strategy Team, contributing to the organisation’s overall direction and growth.

They will oversee KLABU’s storytelling across all channels, both ongoing and campaign-based.

Responsibilities include:

• Owning KLABU’s storytelling strategy across campaigns, content, media and brand partnerships
• Leading, managing and developing the Storytelling Team, currently consisting of two brand managers, a visual storyteller & mentor and a social media intern
• Collaborating directly with content creators across KLABU clubhouses to ensure stories are captured authentically
