Who We Are
At Creshendo, we believe that everyone deserves a chance to belong, rebuild, and rise. We co-create solutions with displaced communities—always listening, collaborating, and centering lived experiences. Fueled by integrity, empathy, and curiosity, we're building innovative and inclusive programs that reimagine what's possible for displaced people everywhere. If you're excited to challenge the status quo and help transform lives, you'll feel at home here.
Why This Role Matters
Creshendo is launching a dedicated Storytelling Instagram focused on human-centered narratives. The work is inspired by long-form storytelling formats like

Humans of New York , but grounded in Creshendo’s values around dignity, agency, and ethical representation.
The Social Media Strategist will help shape how stories are presented online, translating interviews and long-form narratives into thoughtful, platform-appropriate content. This role is for someone who cares deeply about

how

stories are shared, not just how they perform.
What You’ll Be Doing
Develop a content strategy for Creshendo’s Storytelling Instagram
Collaborate with the Storytelling Director and Graphic Designer to plan posts across formats, including text, image, video, audio, and animation
Advise on pacing, tone, and narrative consistency across posts
Help ensure stories are shared in a way that is respectful, contextualized, and non-exploitative
Coordinate lightly with the Marketing and Communications team to stay aligned with brand guidelines
Who This Role Is For
You might be a great fit if you:
Have experience with Instagram or social storytelling, professionally or in volunteer roles
Have strong editorial instincts and are comfortable working with sensitive material
Are more interested in narrative depth than trend-chasing
Work thoughtfully and collaboratively across teams
Respect and prioritize ethical storytelling principles
We work with a

G.Y.S.T. mindset : action over ego, clarity over chaos, and progress over perfection. If you lead with intention and follow through, you’ll fit right in.
What You’ll Gain
Experience shaping a human-centered storytelling platform from the ground up
A portfolio of ethical, narrative-driven social media work
Collaboration with a thoughtful, mission-driven creative team
Deeper exposure to storytelling, ethics, and digital narrative strategy
