About the Role
You will own organic social across both brands, building accounts that reach new audiences and develop an engaged community. Reporting to the Influencers & Partnerships Manager, you will manage strategy, daily creation, publishing and performance improvements. A designer supports bigger creative projects, while you handle day-to-day graphics and short-form video.
Responsibilities
Own organic social strategy for both brands, tailoring content to each platform and balancing community engagement with new audience reach. Plan each brand's content calendar one week ahead and get it approved with the Influencers & Partnerships Manager. Create and publish daily: write hooks and captions, shoot and edit short-form videos, and design graphics and stories. Brief larger creative pieces to the designer and follow brand guidelines and approved product claims. Spot trends daily and publish relevant trend content the same day. Repurpose creator and UGC content into organic posts, sharing performance feedback with the creator team. Respond to comments and DMs within 24 hours, keep the Facebook group active, engage with tagged mentions and flag customer issues to Customer Support the same day. Deliver a performance report every Monday covering results and planned changes. Set organic social KPI targets with your manager, update the weekly scorecard, post daily priorities and join the weekly team meeting. Success will be measured through follower growth, reach and non-follower reach, saves, shares, engagement, publishing consistency and community responsiveness. Your 90-day targets will be agreed before your start date. Qualifications 2+ years personally running organic social for a DTC or consumer brand, creating and publishing content yourself rather than only approving work or managing an agency. Accounts and measurable results that demonstrate the growth you delivered. Ability to manage two brands across multiple social channels with content tailored to each. Native-level written English and strong skills in hooks, captions, and shooting and editing short-form video. Ability to create clean, on-brand graphics and stories in Canva, Figma or similar tools. Daily familiarity with TikTok and Instagram trends, plus the ability to use saves, shares, reach and engagement data to improve content. Availability to overlap with US and Canada time zones and work overtime or weekends when needed. A hands-on approach suited to a fast-moving team that values continuous improvement, speed, resourcefulness and proactive ownership. Be ready to use AI and tools to support content creation, scheduling and reporting. Bonus points: Pet, home or wellness brand experience, and experience working with creators or UGC.
