Role Overview:
The Senior Social Strategist will lead the day-to-day development of social strategy and social ideas across Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and more for clients. Reporting to the Social Strategy Director, the Senior Social Strategist will be responsible for ideating and developing engaging social content to help clients build an amazing social presence. This role requires proven experience in bringing numerous social ideas to life, building out content calendars, and helping brands grow their social channels through engaging content and effective social strategies.
You understand that what works on Instagram doesn’t necessarily work on TikTok, that “hero videos” are an outdated approach to social media, and you know what it takes to get followers to comment things like, “marketing team deserves a raise.”
You’ll contribute to everything from big ideas and social playbooks to repeatable social franchises and talent/creator-led content. This role is very conceptual, driven by ideation and copywriting with a heavy focus on social. It’s important that the person in this role is deeply tuned into fitness, sports, music, culture, and all things social.
Soft skills are extremely important to this team. We’re looking for someone who is tapped in, passionate about the work, takes initiative, pushes their own ideas, communicates timely, collaborates cross-functionally, and solves problems with empathy.
