We offer generous benefits including health care, dental, retirement matching,  and even catered lunches!

  • Own social media management across all channels
  • Create a monthly editorial calendar for all active social media networks (copy and image/video ideas)
  • Daily management of all social media networks (posting and community management)
  • Set clear objectives that tie back to the team and company goals
  • Find relevant opportunities for our brand – what’s trending? How can we become more shareable?
  • Collaborate with members of the content  team to achieve weekly & monthly goals
  • Social media reporting (data analytics)

Skills and Qualifications

  • Leadership: You lead from any seat, even if not directly supervising people.
  • Technology: Proficiency on social media platforms Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and YouTube.
