Why This Role Stands Out
This remote role offers an exciting opportunity to build a brand's social media presence from the ground up, developing viral content and driving significant audience growth. You will thrive here if you are a creative and data-driven strategist with proven success in launching and scaling platforms like Instagram and TikTok. Embrace this chance to shape a distinctive online identity and advance your career in a dynamic marketing environment.
Quick Overview
Job Description
We are seeking a Social Media Strategist to build and grow a personality-led social media presence from the ground up.
This is a hands-on, end-to-end role covering strategy, account setup, content planning, production management, publishing, audience growth, community management, and performance optimization across Instagram and TikTok.

Responsibilities

- Develop and execute the organic growth strategy, with a focus on reach, engagement, follower growth, and long-term audience development.
- Create viral campaign concepts, social-first stories, and repeatable content formats that establish a distinctive and recognizable online personality.
- Manage the full content lifecycle, including research, ideation, scripting, content calendars, production coordination, approvals, publishing, and optimization.
- Use platform analytics, audience insights, watch time, retention, and engagement data to guide creative decisions and improve performance.
- Manage day-to-day community engagement and coordinate with the founder and creative partners.
- Proven experience launching and organically growing Instagram and TikTok accounts from an early or zero-follower stage.
- A strong portfolio of high-performing, viral, or culturally relevant social content supported by measurable growth results.
- Deep understanding of Instagram and TikTok algorithms, audience behavior, retention, discoverability, engagement, and organic growth mechanics.
- Strong creative strategy and social-first storytelling skills, with the ability to turn a personality into compelling and repeatable content.
- Hands-on experience managing social media end to end, from strategy and content development through production, publishing, analytics, and community management.
- Strong project management and collaboration skills, with the ability to work closely with the founder and creative production partners.
- Able to work PST hours.
Nice to Have
- Experience working with creator-led brands, founders, entertainment properties, personality-driven accounts, legal brands, or character-led content is advantageous but not required.
