What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Social Content & Creative Lead position at TriSearch?
LOCATION: Scottsdale, AZ — In Office
TRAVEL: Periodic
COMPENSATION $100,000-$120,000
REPORTS TO: Operations Leadership
Role Purpose
Own the organic social and content strategy from idea through publication, while leading the Creative Production function. This person should be a strong strategist and operator who personally works in the platforms, runs the calendar, makes publishing decisions, directs creative resources, reviews performance and adjusts the plan. They do not need to be the primary videographer or editor; the team already has two videographers and a graphic designer.
Important: This is not a “make the deck and hand it off” role. The best candidate is a working owner: strategic enough to set direction, operational enough to publish and optimize, and senior enough to lead the creative resources around them.
What This Person Owns
A hands-on senior social/content operator with strong strategic judgment. They can build a plan, but they also enjoy
executing it. They should be comfortable opening the publishing tool, making the call on a caption, adjusting the
calendar, reviewing a cut, interpreting performance, and moving quickly when the opportunity changes.
Motorcycle fit: riding experience is a major plus and strong preference for this seat because cultural fluency matters,
but it is not an absolute gate if the candidate is otherwise exceptional.
