About the Client
The client is a life insurance agent focused on family and union-member benefits.

Responsibilities
- Develop and lead an end-to-end social media strategy for TikTok and Instagram, built from the ground up.

- Produce and edit content end to end, including Reels, TikTok, Shorts, and short-form videos, graphics, captions, and copy.
- Lead the personal rebrand and establish a cohesive, premium, education-first identity.
- Create content that educates audiences on life insurance, family protection, and generational wealth in an accessible, non-salesy way.
- Grow the accounts organically to drive inbound interest, community, and referrals.
- Track engagement, report on performance, and continuously refine the approach.
- Proven experience building and growing TikTok and Instagram accounts, with a portfolio and clear results.
- Strong short-form video skills across ideation, filming direction, and editing.
- Solid graphic design, caption, and copywriting ability.
- A track record building personal or founder-led brands, including rebrands.
- A strong eye for premium, aspirational aesthetics that feel curated rather than mass-market or corporate.
- Ability to make educational or complex topics simple and engaging; finance or insurance familiarity is a plus.
- Focus on organic, community and referral-led growth rather than paid or ads-led tactics.
- Flexible, proactive, and collaborative, able to take direction and run with it without being rigid.
- EST working hours.
