About the Role

This is a part-time, fully remote social media position for someone who understands what makes content engaging on today’s social platforms. You’ll help manage and grow social media presence across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube.

The ideal person is comfortable working independently, has a good eye for engaging content, and understands how to repurpose one piece of content into multiple social-media posts.

• Develop a simple weekly content calendar
• Write captions, hooks, and calls-to-action to be reviewed and finalized by your manager
• Schedule and publish posts
• Repurpose existing photos, videos, and content resources
• Stay current with social-media trends and tools, and identify trends that fit the brand
• Brainstorm content ideas
• Track basic engagement and identify what types of content are performing well
• Develop and carry out strategies to grow followers across all platforms

Skills/background needed: No prior experience necessary. Ideal candidates will show familiarity with Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube and comfort using design and video editing tools like Canva, CapCut, or similar software. Strong writing and communication skills, a creative eye for content and storytelling, and the ability to work independently and take initiative are essential. We’re looking for organised, dependable people who are respectful and thoughtful, with an understanding of privacy and confidentiality.

What This Role Looks Like

This is a small, flexible role averaging approximately 5–10 hours per week. You’ll have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact by working efficiently and strategically.

A typical week might include:

• Creating 1–2 short-form videos
• Repurposing content across multiple platforms
• Writing and scheduling posts with approval from your manager
• Creating or managing Stories
• Reviewing basic analytics and building growth strategies
• Planning upcoming content
• Executing technical tasks for content ideas

Often, materials like photos, videos, and existing content will be provided to you. You’re not creating everything from scratch—what matters most is your ability to convert ideas and expertise into content that drives follower growth and engagement through your technical skills.
