Role Description
We need a Social Media Specialist who owns the entire content pipeline β strategy, capture, edit, publish, and measure β and can either execute solo for a small production or lead a small team for a larger one. This is a hands-on role. You will help plan the calendar, write the captions, run shoots, cut the video, post it, respond to the comments, read the numbers, and come back with a better plan the next day.
You donβt need a huge team around you to execute. Youβre proactive, collaborative, creative, and excited to both create content yourself and help guide a growing social team to make each campaign stronger than the last.
