• Ideate, shoot, edit and publish high-performing content (short-form video, Reels, TikToks and photography) for organic and paid social that brings the brands and menu to life
• Own the full production process end to end: concept, capture, edit, color, sound, captions and final delivery, with a strong eye for pacing, framing and brand aesthetics
• Act as the on-the-ground content creator at restaurants, the test kitchen, events, activations and tastings, capturing and posting in real time, including when the lead content creator isn't on-site
• Produce platform-native content optimized for Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and emerging platforms, adapting tone, format and aspect ratio for each
• Serve as a flexible in-house creative resource, supporting broader brand media needs including lifestyle and food photography, video production and visual content for marketing campaigns
• Create guest-facing video content for in-restaurant tasting rooms
• Partner with Brand, PR and Creative teams to ensure visual consistency and a cohesive brand identity across channels and touchpoints
