Social Editor

Creative People

The Role:

We're one of the fastest-growing pop brands on social. As a Social Editor, you'll shape the brand voice, driving growth, creating platform-native content, and being first on the pulse of culture. If you're obsessed with pop music + pop culture, have strong social instincts, good judgment, and an eye for what's next, this is for you.

  • Ideate, source, and publish 9+ pieces of content per day across our social platforms (Instagram, X).
  • Design high-performing visuals using Photoshop.
  • Spot emerging pop culture conversations and translate them into timely, platform-native content.
  • React quickly to breaking news and help roll out editorial content in real time.
  • Use data, insights and experimentation to grow followers and engagement.
  • Own OKR reporting, double down on what works, refine or cut what doesn't.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with editorial and video teams to execute content priorities, ensuring all posts feel native to platform and true to the brand voice.
  • Work directly with music partnerships, refining + publishing ad narratives.
  • Partner with sales to execute branded content that fits the brand's tone and connects with our audience.

What We're Looking For:

Must Have

  • 2–3 years of experience running social for a brand or media outlet.
  • Deep love and knowledge of pop music + pop culture, with a strong instinct for winning the moments that matter.
  • Deep knowledge of core social platforms (Instagram, TikTok, X/Twitter, Facebook) and their evolving best practices.
  • A deep understanding of journalism guidelines, accuracy and fact-checking standards.
  • Photoshop experience (AKA: you can design and post your own content).
  • Comfortable working quickly, creatively and collaboratively in a news-driven environment.
  • Comfortable using analytics tools (e.g., Instagram Insights, Measure Studio, or similar) to inform strategy and optimize performance.
  • Exceptional writing and editing skills with a strong eye for grammar, tone, and voice.
  • Strong communication skills & experience working within a team + across departments (editorial, video, design.)
  • Weekend availability.
  • Positive, intuitive and always proactive.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive compensation
  • A fully remote team
  • Health insurance
