Social Media Manager, Organic Social

Title: Social Media Manager, Organic Social

Location: St. Louis MO US

Type: Full-time

Workplace: Fully remote

Job Description:

We’re hiring a Social Media Manager who will be the ultimate social strategist and trend whisperer for our client portfolio. You are the conductor of the month-to-month plan, turning dry client goals into engaging, platform-native content that gets noticed. This is a strategy-first, execution-heavy role for someone who can spot a trend on Monday and have it live for three clients by Friday. A serious knack for analytical social strategy—and the ability to pivot based on what the data says—is key to winning.

You'll be managing the full lifecycle: content ideation, developing sleek content calendars, drafting creative briefs, and writing killer copy. You'll also be the community management concierge, ensuring every post is launched with precision and every comment receives an on-brand, lightning-fast response. If you're a strategic expert who also knows how to make a feed pop and a community buzz, this role offers significant ownership and the freedom to be wildly creative.

(Bonus points if you can edit video or whip up a graphic—we love a multi-talented powerhouse, but your strategic brain is the star of the show!)
