Social Media and Community Strategist

Social Media & Community Strategist
Fresh Baguette has been DC’s favorite artisanal bakery for 12 years — 9 locations, 4.7 stars, and a loyal community built one croissant at a time. This spring, we’re launching My Fresh Baguette: our direct‑to‑consumer frozen bread subscription, bringing sourdough loaves, croissants, and pastries straight to people’s doors across the country.

We’re at day one. The website is live, the boxes are packed, and we need someone to help us tell the story.

Starting May 2026 | Germantown, MD and D.C. area | Part‑time | Hybrid (Must be on‑site 2 days per week)

We’re looking for a creative, hands‑on Part‑Time Social Media & Community Strategist to grow My Fresh Baguette’s brand across digital platforms, engage our audience, and help launch our direct‑to‑consumer e‑commerce experience. This role blends content creation, strategy, and customer interaction to bring the My Fresh Baguette story to life and build a loyal online community.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone early in their career who wants to take ownership in a startup‑style environment—shaping both the day‑to‑day content and the broader strategy as we build.

This is a part‑time, hybrid role requiring at least two days per week on‑site at our Germantown, MD office.
