Social Media Manager

Hue · New York, NY, USA · Remote ·

Pay:
$35-$55/hr
Job type:
Contract

I'm hiring two roles. Both are for people who've done this before and want to keep building.

Opportunity moves through people. If you know someone who fits, tag them. If you are someone who fits, apply.

Editorial Director at Wellth

Wellth is Hue's longform editorial brand covering culture, leadership, wellbeing, and innovation. No other publication centers marketing and advertising professionals, founders, and operators from the rising majority. You'll source and manage contributors, own the editorial calendar, and handle day-to-day execution. Remote and async-friendly.

Social Media Manager

You’ll repurpose content from the podcast, newsletter, and editorial into scroll-stopping posts across LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube. You create the assets. You read the data. You grow the audience. Remote and async-friendly.

Social Media Manager
Hue is the community-powered media company at the intersection of culture, commerce, and community. As the voice of the rising majority, we unite marketing leaders, entrepreneurs, and operators across Fortune 500 companies, unicorn tech startups, media companies, and top advertising agencies.

The work is built around a simple belief: community is how we go further, faster. Fahad Khawaja — founder, keynote speaker, and community builder — is the voice that carries that belief publicly. Our content lives across the In Community with Fahad Khawaja podcast, Wellth editorial brand, and live events. This role exists to take that content and amplify it — extracting, reshaping, and distributing it in ways that are scroll-stopping and drive real follower and subscriber growth across Fahad's channels and Hue's brand presence, so the message lands with the people it was built for. The personal channels are the priority. The company channels support and extend them.

This is a role for someone who already knows how to do the job.
