  • Manage day-to-day community engagement and coordinate with the founder and creative partners.

Requirements

  • A strong portfolio of high-performing, viral, or culturally relevant social content supported by measurable growth results.
  • Deep understanding of Instagram and TikTok algorithms, audience behavior, retention, discoverability, engagement, and organic growth mechanics.
  • Strong creative strategy and social-first storytelling skills, with the ability to turn a personality into compelling and repeatable content.
  • Hands-on experience managing social media end to end, from strategy and content development through production, publishing, analytics, and community management.
  • Strong project management and collaboration skills, with the ability to work closely with the founder and creative production partners.
  • Able to work PST hours.

Nice to Have

  • Experience working with creator-led brands, founders, entertainment properties, personality-driven accounts, legal brands, or character-led content is advantageous but not required.
