What are the responsibilities and job description for the Social Content Producer position at Spot & Tango?
Who We Are
Spot & Tango is an innovative pet health & wellness brand delivering personalized, nutritious meals to dogs nationwide. Our recipes are developed by leading animal nutritionists and made with only real, human-grade ingredients—never anything artificial. We have lofty goals (to make every dog healthier and every pet parent happier), and we’re building a best-in-class brand to match. This is an opportunity to join a VC-backed, high-growth e-commerce startup and have an outsized creative impact in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. Plus, you get to think about dogs all day 🐶
Who You Are
As a Social Content Producer at Spot & Tango, you'll bring our brand to life through video that earns attention in a crowded feed. This is a heavily edit-focused role with some shooting mixed in. You're most at home in the edit but can pick up a camera when the moment calls for it. You have a strong eye for storytelling and the instincts to shape raw footage into polished, on-brand paid social work that feels intentional and unmistakably ours.
You know what performs on paid social, stay current on emerging formats, and can flex creatively without losing sight of brand voice. You're at home when the brief is broad one day and highly specific the next.
You'll report to the Creative Director and partner day-to-day with a close team of creatives and marketers.
Responsibilities
Please submit a portfolio of recent video work, including paid social and any other relevant samples.
This is a hybrid position.
You must be able to commute into our office in Midtown Manhattan Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
Spot & Tango is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
