Our fully remote team is passionate, collaborative, and always looking for new ways to push the envelope.
The Role
We’re looking for a Social Media Manager who can own the full social presence for a portfolio of clients. A huge part of this role is community management—you’ll be the voice behind the brand, replying to comments, jumping into conversations, building relationships with followers, and making every interaction count. You’ll also develop strategy, create scroll-stopping content, and report on performance. This is a hands-on role for someone who genuinely enjoys talking to people online.

Proactively engage with followers, fans, and relevant accounts to spark conversations and build loyal communities
Monitor and jump into trending conversations, hashtags, and comment sections to boost brand visibility
Handle customer questions, feedback, and even complaints on social with professionalism and empathy
Track KPIs (reach, engagement, follower growth, response time, conversions) and deliver monthly performance reports with actionable insights
Collaborate with designers, copywriters, and clients to align social efforts with broader marketing campaigns
Run and optimize paid social campaigns, including audience targeting, A/B testing, and budget management
Stay ahead of emerging platforms, features, and best practices to keep our clients on the cutting edge
What You Bring
2–5 years of professional social media management experience (agency experience is a plus)
Proven track record of growing audiences and driving engagement across multiple platforms
Strong copywriting and conversational skills—you can adapt tone and voice for different brands and sound natural doing it
A people-first mindset: you enjoy interacting with audiences and know how to turn a comment into a connection
Proficiency with scheduling and analytics tools (e.g., Sprout Social, Later, Hootsuite, Meta Business Suite)
Working knowledge of paid social advertising on Meta, TikTok, and LinkedIn
Basic graphic design and video editing skills (Canva, CapCut, or similar tools)
Excellent organizational skills—you can juggle multiple client accounts without dropping the ball
A genuine enthusiasm for social media and a finger on the pulse of what’s trending
