From the employer

As the Social Content Creator, you will work as a key player on an agile team, creating and producing engaging brand content that editorializes, commentates, and participates in real-time culture and trends.

The ideal candidate is obsessed with hands-on content creation and has a passion for innovation and new digital & social platforms. You have a background in creating TikToks, along with a deep understanding of production must-haves, a knack for ideation, strategic know-how, and a collaborative mindset.

This role requires someone who is organized, creative, and energized by making great work, whether that be concepting in partnership with the broader team, or picking up a phone and shooting/editing a piece of content themselves.

This means making sure the production of that content is planned out, scheduled, and executed correctly (often by YOU!), and also that props and sets are considered. You will also have the opportunity to brief in and work with in-house editors on some projects.

Ability to ideate & concept original ideas both independently and in collaboration with team members.
