I’m Hiring an Social Media Manager
The Ask and The Offer
I’m looking for a sharp, thoughtful, highly capable part-time Social Media Manager to help us turn strong ideas into consistent, high-quality distribution across platforms.
This is a hands-on role for someone who understands that great content isn’t just created, it’s placed, paced, and translated for where people actually are. You’ll take our existing Instagram content and repurpose it intelligently across X, Threads, TikTok, Substack, Facebook, and wherever else it belongs.
If you’re the kind of person who enjoys shaping a clear voice, paying attention to nuance, and steadily growing an audience through consistency and taste, this will be a great fit.
Responsibilities
Your job is simple to say and hard to do well: help our ideas travel further, land better, and compound over time.
You’ll be responsible for adapting, publishing, and optimizing content across platforms while maintaining a coherent brand voice and momentum. This is less about chasing trends and more about smart execution, consistency, and feedback loops.
This role is ideal for someone who:
Thinks in systems, not just posts
Enjoys translating one strong idea across many formats
Cares about voice, clarity, and credibility
Likes steady progress more than viral lottery tickets
Can work independently without disappearing
What You’ll Do
Adapt Instagram carousels, captions, and stories for X (Twitter), Threads, TikTok, Substack, Facebook, and other relevant platforms
Tailor copy, format, hashtags, and timing to each platform’s best practices
Manage posting schedules and maintain consistency across channels
Preserve and reinforce a calm, trustworthy, educational brand voice
Run organic engagement strategies and selectively boost posts with small paid budgets
Track performance (reach, engagement, follower growth) and share simple weekly insights
Occasionally create lightweight, platform-native content (threads, short clips, polls, text posts) to support the core content
Keep things organized, on time, and moving without hand-holding
About You
Proven experience managing social media for a brand or creator:
Strong understanding of Instagram, X, Threads, TikTok, and Facebook dynamics
Comfortable repurposing content rather than reinventing it every time
Clear, confident writer with good editorial judgment
Organized, self-directed, and reliable in async work environments
Comfortable working remotely via Slack and email
Familiar with tools like Figma, Canva, Buffer, CapCut, or similar (not precious about tools - just effective)
The Deets
Start Date: ASAP - the sooner we find each other, the better
Employment Status: Starting part-time (10–15 hrs/week) with the intention to likely ramp up from there
Compensation: Hourly, commensurate with experience. We’re open to a range, what matters most is taste, reliability, and follow-through.
Application Process: To apply, share your resume or LinkedIn, a few lines on why this role excites you, and links to accounts you’ve managed or content you’re proud of. Please include your hourly rate so we can align quickly. Specificity beats polish.
