You won't be starting from scratch. We have a large library of existing content ready to use, so you'll have plenty to get running right away.

Key Responsibilities:

Content Creation: Write captions, design graphics (Canva, Figma, etc.), and film short-form videos that showcase Goodie Bag's mission and partners.
Cross-Posting: Publish every Reel to both Instagram and TikTok, adapting captions, sounds, and formats to each platform.
Video Editing: Turn raw and existing footage into engaging clips with captions, branding overlays, and music that fit platform best practices.
Account Management: Handle the day-to-day of our accounts, including comments, DMs, community engagement, and keeping our profiles current.
Content Calendar: Plan and own the content calendar with the founders.
Market Launch Prep: Help create localized social assets for new-market activations and partner spotlights.
Future Marketing Initiatives: As you grow, you'll get the chance to pitch campaign ideas, support email marketing creative, and work on brand partnerships.

Deliverables:

5 posts per week: 3 Reels (cross-posted to Instagram and TikTok) and 2 static posts
Daily Stories
Ongoing account management
A content calendar, built and kept up to date with the founders
A weekly performance recap

Qualifications:

Enthusiasm for social media trends, short-form video, and storytelling.
Hands-on with video editing tools (Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut, CapCut, or similar).
Familiarity with graphic tools (Canva, Photoshop, Figma).
Strong writing and editing skills and an eye for visual detail.
Organized self-starter who can juggle multiple content streams and deadlines.
Basic comfort with data: able to read platform analytics and spot performance patterns.
Bonus: experience with TikTok specifically, or with coordinating influencers or running small campaigns.

Startup Perks:

Unlimited goodie bags
Free swag
Get paid if you go viral

Benefits:

Real-world social media and video production experience at a mission-driven startup.
Flexible, fully remote hours.
Networking with influencers, brands, and sustainability leaders.
