Social Media Marketing Strategist
Full-Time | Remote | W-2
At CXA, we do not hire people to simply “make posts.”
We hire strategic thinkers who can translate brand into content, ideas into execution, and marketing into measurable movement.
We’re looking for a full-time Social Media Marketing Strategist to join our team — someone who is creative, sharp, highly organized, and deeply accountable. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves both strategy and execution, and wants to play a meaningful role inside a growing agency.
This is a client-facing role. You will not just be creating content — you will be owning accounts, guiding strategy, communicating with clients, analyzing performance, and helping move brands forward.
What You’ll Do
You will manage a portfolio of client accounts and take full ownership of the social media marketing process from start to finish.
This includes:
Building monthly social media strategy for multiple client accounts
Creating content calendars and planning content in advance
Writing captions, hooks, CTAs, and strategic messaging
Creating or directing reels, carousels, story sets, and other social assets
Reviewing content for brand alignment, clarity, and performance potential
Pulling analytics and turning data into recommendations
Preparing monthly status updates and leading strategy calls with clients
Managing ongoing communication with clients via Slack and other channels
Responding to last-minute requests and shifting priorities with professionalism
Collaborating with internal team members while still operating independently
Thinking proactively about what is working, what is not, and what needs to change
What Success Looks Like in This Role
Success in this role is not just about staying on top of your to-do list.
It looks like:
Creating content that is on-brand, strategic, and well-executed
Understanding why content performs — and why it doesn’t
Owning your client accounts with confidence and accountability
Leading client communication with clarity and professionalism
Staying calm and solution‑oriented in a fast-moving environment
Managing deadlines, shifting priorities, and creative demands without dropping the ball
Receiving feedback well and applying it quickly
Contributing positively to the team and helping elevate the agency as a whole
Who You Are
You are someone who:
Thinks strategically, not just creatively
Can balance brand-building with business goals
Understands social media is more than aesthetics
Is highly organized and plans ahead
Is comfortable managing multiple projects and clients at once
Can pivot quickly when priorities shift
Is resourceful and knows how to problem‑solve before asking to be rescued
Is coachable, collaborative, and confident
Can communicate well with both clients and team members
Has a strong sense of ownership and follows through
Wants to grow inside a company and be part of something bigger than yourself
You’ll Likely Thrive Here If You…
Enjoy both strategy and hands‑on execution
Want to work across multiple brands and industries
Like variety in your work and get bored doing the same thing every day
Can handle a startup-style environment where not everything is perfectly built out
Are energized by growth, momentum, and high standards
Can manage overwhelm well and reset quickly when things get busy
Appreciate autonomy, but still value team collaboration
This Role Is Not the Best Fit If You…
Need constant direction or hand-holding
Prefer highly rigid corporate structure
Struggle to prioritize when multiple things are due at once
Get easily flustered by feedback or shifting timelines
Only enjoy content creation but not analytics, strategy, or client communication
Want a role where you can stay in your lane and not think beyond assigned tasks
Experience We’re Looking For
We’re open to different backgrounds, but strong candidates will likely have experience in some combination of:
Social media strategy
Content planning and execution
Copywriting
Analytics and reporting
Client communication
Creative direction
Video editing and/or graphic design
Agency, freelance, in‑house, or brand‑side marketing
Experience with tools like Canva, Meta Business Suite, Rella, ClickUp, Google Drive, and AI tools is helpful.
Compensation + Benefits
Salary range: $55,000–$60,000
Full-time W-2 position
Wellness stipend
PTO
Paid company shutdown between Christmas and New Year’s
Federal holidays
401(k) option with company match
Our Environment
CXA is a fast-moving, high-accountability, startup-style agency environment.
That means:
No two weeks look exactly the same
Some systems are built out, and some are still evolving
We care deeply about quality, communication, and results
We are flexible, but not lax
We move quickly, collaborate often, and expect people to take ownership
This role is best for someone who can think, decide, create, communicate, and adapt.
If you’re looking for a role where you can grow quickly, be challenged meaningfully, and do work that actually matters, this is a great fit.
