ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re reFOCUS Marketing — a US-based marketing agency helping small businesses grow through modern social platforms.

We’re hiring a full-time Social Media Operator who will log into TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube Shorts, LinkedIn, and Reddit AS our clients and operate their accounts day-to-day.

This role requires excellent English, the ability to communicate like a US-native speaker, and strong cultural awareness.
If you cannot blend into American online conversations naturally — this role will not be a fit.

You won’t be creating content.

- Use new and trending features (TikTok text posts, IG story stickers, polls, link buttons, etc)
- Add covers, hashtags, tags, descriptions, and formatting
- Maintain a consistent posting schedule
- Monitor notifications and escalate important messages

Community Growth & Engagement
- Respond to comments using a natural, US-native style and brand-appropriate tone
- Engage with followers and local audiences
- Follow/engage with relevant accounts
- Leave meaningful, conversational comments (NOT generic)
- Participate in Reddit threads using proper etiquette
- Leave value-based contributions in subreddits

Reddit-Specific Work
- Engage in niche subreddits without sounding promotional
- Reply to threads in a natural voice
- Provide helpful, value-based comments

- Casual conversation patterns
- Tone differences across platforms

- Organized and consistent
- Can manage multiple client accounts
- Reliable internet and stable devices
