Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Content Creation & Capture: Support the Social Media Manager in creating platform-native content for Bumble across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube.
  • Be comfortable getting in front of the camera and appearing in Bumble social content.
  • Capture social-first photo and video content on an iPhone at events, activations, shoots, around the office, and in everyday cultural moments.
  • Confidently approach and engage people to participate in social content when a concept calls for it.
  • Develop your instincts for strong social-first content, including hooks, framing, pacing, storytelling, and editing.
  • Edit short-form video using CapCut and other social-first tools, turning raw footage, creator content, UGC, and existing brand assets into engaging, platform-native content.
  • Experiment with platform features, trending formats, sounds, and editing styles, proactively pitching ideas that feel relevant to Bumble.
  • Contribute ideas during brainstorms and be willing to jump in and make the idea—not just identify the trend.
  • Cultural Listening, Insights & POV: Stay closely tapped into TikTok, Instagram, emerging platforms, and internet culture, regularly surfacing trends, conversations, creators, and behaviors relevant to Bumble and our audience.
  • Go beyond sharing what’s trending by developing a point of view on why something is resonating and whether there’s a relevant way in for Bumble.

Requirements

  • 1–2 years of experience in social media, digital marketing, community management, content creation, or a related field, including relevant internships or freelance experience.
  • You spend a lot of time on TikTok, Instagram, and emerging platforms and have strong instincts for how people actually communicate on them.
  • You’re comfortable being on camera and excited to appear in Bumble content when needed.
  • You’re comfortable picking up an iPhone and capturing content yourself—you don’t need a formal production setup to make something engaging.
  • You have experience with short-form video editing or are excited to develop your skills.
  • You’re comfortable approaching and engaging new people and can bring energy to content capture in real-world environments.
  • You’re interested in internet culture, dating and relationships, entertainment, and creators.
  • You’re highly organized, detail-oriented, and comfortable managing multiple priorities.
  • You’re a strong writer and curious about understanding what makes content perform.
  • You’re proactive, collaborative, and excited to develop your creative point of view.
