Social Media Associate, Part-time/Fixed-term (6 months)

About This Opportunity

We are representing a confidential tech marketplace client seeking a Social Media Associate for a part-time, 6-month fixed-term engagement. This is a remote position based in the United States.

In this role, you'll own the day-to-day content engine for Instagram and TikTok, operating within a newsroom model. You'll independently ideate, produce, and publish platform-native content that keeps our client in step with culture—not just trends. You'll make real-time judgment calls on what to post, which format fits, and how to engage the community, all with minimal oversight.

This is the connective tissue role—reactive, high-volume, high-quality content that keeps channels performing at a national level.

Responsibilities

• Independently ideate, produce, and publish short-form video and static content across Instagram (Reels, Stories, carousels, feed) and TikTok
• Operate at newsroom speed: identify culturally relevant moments, make format and timing decisions independently, and ship content within 24–48 hour trend windows
• Write platform-optimized captions, hooks, and CTAs tailored to each format and audience
• Collaborate with market-based colleagues to ensure visual and tonal consistency across all content
• Track performance via native analytics and internal dashboards; use data to iterate on content strategy without being prompted
• Ingest feedback quickly and apply it forward
• Maintain and evolve the brand's social voice to feel native, current, and consistent across platforms
• Coordinate with cross-functional partners (brand, comms, community) as needed for moment-based content
• Practice accessibility-first publishing (captions, contrast, alt text)

What We're Looking For

Required:

• 2–3 years of professional social media experience, specifically creating content for Instagram and/or TikTok at a brand, agency, or media company
• A portfolio demonstrating platform-native short-form video and static content—published work with real engagement, not class projects
• Proven ability to work independently with minimal supervision: you don't wait for briefs, you bring ideas
• Strong instinct for what "native" looks like on each platform—you can feel the difference between overproduced and underproduced, and you consistently hit the middle
• Fluency in cultural trends, audio trends, and platform-specific features
• Proficiency with mobile-first editing tools and basic design tools (Canva)
• Excellent copywriting instincts—hooks, captions, and CTAs that are sharp, on-brand, and platform-aware
• Clear, proactive communication with your manager and collaborators

Preferred:

• Experience at a multi-location or marketplace brand
• Background in food, dining, nightlife, or local culture content
• Photography skills or light motion graphics
• Familiarity with social analytics platforms (Sprout, Later, or similar)
• Basic SEO knowledge for social discovery
