Hybrid (minimum of 2 days/week in-office)
The Strategist, Social Media Content & Community Management is a hands-on social specialist who owns the day-to-day voice, content calendar, and community of assigned client brands. This person is a seasoned community manager with a sharp eye for cultural and platform trends, and a content planner who can juggle multiple brand priorities, talent partnerships, and workstreams at once. They partner closely with Creative to turn trends and client goals into native, platform-right content (not just trend replication with a logo slapped on) and they retain and build on client feedback so every new round of work is sharper than the last.

A track record of spotting and translating cultural and social trends (e.g., meme culture, clipping) into brand-right content, rather than replicating a trend with a product or logo bolted on
