Media & Content Manager - Avant Gaming

Avant Garde (Stylised as Av, or simply Avant) are a premier competitive gaming organisation based in Australia. The organisation sponsors some of the best players in games such as League of Legends, Smite, Call of Duty and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

As the Avant Media and Content Administrator, my primary role was to produce marketing content to grow the brand on social platforms. Avant’s social media audience grew 276%, and engagement with the readers increased by an average of 29% per post.

I also managed a team consisting of content and graphic designers to create content for the organisation. The sales pitch I produced helped our brand land major sponsors including AMD, Netgear and AORUS.

The following is a list of content produced for Avant Garde

As Avant Garde was acquired by the Dire Wolves, the site and content have been shut down, however, I’ve included links to pages cached by the WayBack Machine where available.
