TikTok Content Creator (Contractor) Job at Linktree in Los Angeles

Linktree is looking for a culture-obsessed, trend-savvy TikTok Content Creator (contractor) to take our social presence to the next level. This is a highly creative, hands-on role focused on ideating, producing, editing, and starring in compelling short-form video content that connects with audiences and drives brand engagement.

We are looking for a social-first storyteller who thrives on the cutting edge of culture. As a member of the Social team, you’ll collaborate across creative, product, creator partnerships and marketing to develop scroll-stopping content that entertains, informs, and engages.

Please note this is a 3-month contract role to start, with the possibility of extension or conversion to a full-time position based on performance and business needs.

What You’ll Own

• Build original, platform-native video content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and other emerging short-form channels.
• Partner with the Creative, Social, Creator Partnerships and Product teams to align content with brand messaging, product launches, and campaign objectives.
• Own the full video production process — from pitching and scripting to shooting, editing, and publishing.
• Develop ongoing series and one-off videos that reflect internet culture, elevate Linktree’s brand, and grow our audience.
• Monitor cultural trends, memes, creator movements, and social analytics to proactively shape content strategy.
• Step confidently on camera when needed and direct external talent, creators, or influencers as appropriate.
• Test and iterate new content formats, editing styles, and creative approaches based on performance insights.

Who We’re Looking For

• 3–5 years of experience creating, editing, and publishing short-form social video content — ideally for consumer, lifestyle, or creator-first brands.
• Strong portfolio showcasing a range of work, from raw, personality-led content to more refined, story-driven formats.
• Advanced proficiency in social-native editing tools such as Adobe Creative Suite (Premiere, After Effects), Final Cut, or CapCut.
• Deep understanding of TikTok and meme culture, with a sharp instinct for what makes content relatable, viral, and brand-aligned.
• Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset; able to work cross-functionally with internal and external teams.
• On-camera confidence and a natural storytelling ability (bonus but strongly preferred).
• Bonus: You already use Linktree and have firsthand experience with creator tools and digital branding platforms.

Linktree is committed to providing a fair and competitive compensation package including cash, equity, and benefits. The base salary offered for this role is targeted at $40–$75/hr depending on experience for contractors based in Los Angeles.

We’re on a mission to empower anyone to curate, grow, and monetize their digital universe. We created the “link in bio” category — and we’re just getting started. From creators, artists, and entrepreneurs to global brands, we’re redefining how people connect with their communities, showcase their content and promote products — all in one link.
