Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Write and maintain the monthly content calendar for each assigned client, aligned to content pillars and strategic direction.
  • Draft all social media copy: captions, ad copy, promotional messaging, and campaign hooks.
  • Translate strategy into platform-specific execution plans (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Google Business Profile).
  • Manage at-need or reactive content requests as they arise. Adapt fast without losing calendar momentum.
  • Write creative briefs for the Content Coordinator and Graphic Designers. Be specific about what you need and why.
  • Work with the Content Coordinator and designer on asset needs, ensuring visuals match the copy and strategic intent.

  • Working knowledge of paid social setup (Meta Ads Manager required; Google and TikTok preferred).
  • Strong writing skills. You can write 20 captions in a morning and they’re all good.
  • Analytical mindset. You use data to inform decisions, not just to fill slide decks.
  • Experience in franchise, QSR, or multi-location marketing is a plus.
  • Comfort working at pace across multiple accounts with competing deadlines.

Benefits

  • We operate on a 4-day work week (Monday-Thursday in the office, Friday off) because we believe focused, high-quality work deserves flexibility and balance.
