Summary:
This role blends strategist and creator. You'll set the editorial vision and content calendar, but you'll also be the one on-camera bringing it to life, so you should be as comfortable pitching a content strategy in a room as you are hitting record. Success here means going from zero followers to a channel with real audience traction, a distinct creative voice, and a repeatable content system others can build on as the brand scales.
Responsibilities:
* Partner with creative and strategy teams to ensure real-time insights influence content development, not just reporting or retrospectives
* Proactively identify and execute trendjacking opportunities, determining when and how the brand should participate in moments, memes, or conversations in a way that feels timely, authentic, and on-brand
* Own day-to-day social media engagement while also serving as a hands-on content creator, producing platform-native content across X, Reddit, Discord, TikTok, YouTube, Meta, and emerging channels
* Concept, create, and publish short- and long-form content,including on-camera appearances, voiceovers, and reactive formats aligned to brand tone and cultural moments
* Develop and execute content strategies and editorial calendars, balancing planned campaigns with real-time and trend-driven opportunities
REQUIREMENTS:
* Proven experience as a social media manager and/or content creator, with a strong portfolio of original, platform-native work. Experience launching new brand social channels is a plus
* High proficiency in Canva, Adobe Creative Suite (Photoshop, Premiere Pro, After Effects, etc.), or equivalent creative tools
* Experience with social media management tools for listening and engagement (e.g. Sprinklr, Plot, etc.)
* Comfortable and confident appearing on camera and directing self-shot or lo-fi content
* Exceptional copywriting skills, with the ability to adapt tone, humor, and messaging across platforms and formats, earning upvotes, likes, and replies
* Expertise in social media usage, channels, platforms, and community management best practices
* Strong understanding of social trends, internet culture, and audience behavior, with the ability to move quickly without sacrificing brand integrity
* Experience working within editorial calendars while remaining agile enough to respond to real-time moments
We are seeking a highly creative and culturally fluent Social Media Manager who blends real-time community engagement with hands-on content creation.
