Detailed Job Description/Responsibilities:

Big Ideas & Concepting:

Develop original creative concepts for social, campaigns, partnerships, activations, and cultural moments

Generate big, disruptive ideas with the potential to travel beyond a single post or platform

Crack briefs and find the insight, tension, behavior, or unexpected observation that opens up the creative

Concept and create work for a range of client brands as well as FlyteVu's own social presence

Turn larger campaign ideas into social ideas that people choose to watch, share, save, or talk about

Bring a social-native perspective to broader creative briefs and integrated campaigns

Creative Development & Making:

Bring select ideas to life through shooting, editing, AI, and emerging creative tools

Write scripts, hooks, headlines, social copy, captions, treatments, and whatever else helps sell or make the idea

Push past the first idea and keep going until the work reaches a more surprising, ownable answer

Move quickly when culture creates an opportunity, without using speed as an excuse for mediocre work

Cultural Fluency & Collaboration:

Think across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, X/Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and emerging platforms, understanding the audiences, behaviors, and creative language of each

Stay attuned to platform shifts, audience behaviors, creators, conversations, and cultural signals, then turn those observations into original creative rather than simply chasing trends

Pitch ideas clearly and confidently to internal teams and clients

Constantly think about and pitch creative opportunities beyond official briefs

Collaborate with the larger creative team on broader briefs and with the right specialists to make ambitious ideas real

How We Think About Social:

Social isn’t the place where the campaign gets resized.

It’s a place to have some of our biggest ideas. The best social work understands the audience, the platform, and the moment, but starts with an idea strong enough to earn attention anywhere.

We’re looking for someone hungry to make that kind of work.

Other Qualifications and Requirements:

Develop and grow knowledge of assigned client businesses and their competitive landscapes

Maintain a pulse on internet culture, creators, music, pop culture, entertainment, technology, and platform developments

File and organize needed documents within agency software and systems

Handle and safeguard confidential and proprietary information

Proactively manage client expectations and deliver exemplary customer service

Be willing to work during non-business hours, including weekends and additional hours beyond the 40-hour work week as needed

Assist with on-site activation and fulfillment of client programs, which require that employees:

Must be able to travel without restriction, including with less than a day’s notice

Must be physically able to lift objects up to 50 lbs. and load/unload, set up, and tear down as needed

Must pass a background check

Special Note: Nothing in this job description restricts management’s right to assign or reassign duties and responsibilities to this job at any time.

Location Requirements:

Candidates must be based in Los Angeles, New York, or Nashville. Los Angeles- and New York-based employees may work fully remotely. Nashville-based employees will follow a hybrid schedule with three days in the office and two remote days per week.

To perform this job successfully, an individual must satisfactorily perform each essential duty. The criteria below represent the required knowledge, skill, experience, and ability. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform essential functions. Qualifications include, but are not limited to:

Required Competencies/Skills:

3-6 years of creative experience, ideally within an agency, brand, social, entertainment, or culture-driven environment

A portfolio that makes us think, "I wish I'd thought of that,", with strong concepts, unexpected ideas, and work with a clear point of view

Big conceptual thinking combined with strong social experience

Relentless curiosity: a drive to explore new tools, follow unexpected threads, and notice things other people miss

Creative hunger and a commitment to making great work, getting better, trying things, and pushing an idea beyond what was asked for

The ability to find the creative opportunity when the insight isn’t neatly packaged in the brief

Strong conceptual thinking and the ability to generate many genuinely different ideas

A sharp understanding of internet culture, entertainment, creators, brands, and how different audiences behave online

Strong working knowledge of major social platforms and the emerging platforms the industry will be talking about next

Excellent writing skills with a strong sense of voice, humor, tone, and clarity

Strong taste and an eye for visual storytelling

A maker mentality and comfort getting hands-on to figure out how to make something great

Comfort experimenting with AI and emerging creative technology as part of the creative process, not just as a productivity shortcut

Openness to feedback and zero preciousness about making an idea better

Excellent communication and time-management skills

Ability to prioritize multiple tasks with varying deadlines and operate in fast-paced, hard-deadline environments

Entrepreneurial self-starter with the ability to work independently and navigate ambiguity

Additional Preferences/Not Required:

Ability to shoot, edit, design, animate, or bring another creative superpower that helps make ideas real

Experience building or growing a social account, professionally or personally

Experience across entertainment, music, sports, lifestyle, consumer brands, or culture-driven campaigns

Active experimentation with AI and new creative tools, with work that demonstrates the possibilities
