  • Own end-to-end TikTok/Instagram content and community-building for teens, driving rapid viral moments

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Run our TikTok and Instagram end-to-end
  • Build a community , not just a follower count — high school students who actually root for us
  • Be on camera (or behind it), in the office, at the events, everywhere
  • Run weird experiments. We have budget for it. Some won't work. The ones that do will hit millions of teens.
  • Catch every meme cycle before our competitors know what TikTok is
  • Turn Tuesday afternoon office chaos into Wednesday's viral post

Requirements

  • Have your own following (any size — what matters is taste)
  • Are deeply, almost concerningly online
  • Can write a hook that stops a 16-year-old mid-scroll
  • Shoot and edit your own stuff (CapCut wizardry encouraged)
  • Have shipped content somewhere — a brand, a creator account, a school org, your own page
  • Know the difference between StudyTok, BookTok, and whatever new Tok dropped this morning

Preferred

  • Fresh grad or 1–2 years in
  • Have opinions about which accounts are actually good vs. just big
  • Have built a community from zero before
  • Hate the phrase "let's hop on a sync"
