In this role, you’ll collaborate directly with businesses to craft compelling weekly videos, ensuring they maintain a strong, authentic presence online.

  • Stay ahead of social trends and platform innovations to continually evolve content strategy and creative execution
  • Monitor and analyze performance metrics to optimize campaigns and demonstrate measurable results for clients
  • Meet and exceed revenue targets
  • What We’re Looking For

Proven experience in social media content creation and video production (Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube Shorts).

Strong understanding of social media strategy, audience engagement, and digital storytelling.

Excellent presentation and communication skills with confidence in client meetings and sales environments.

Ability to collaborate effectively with Account Executives while also succeeding independently.

Highly organized, creative, and adaptable in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.

Passion for local business marketing, community connection, and creative innovation.
