Job Summary


PRADCO Outdoor Brands seeks a creative, self-sufficient content creator to join its Hunting Division Marketing Team as Social Media Specialist. This role owns organic social media for seven premium brands: Summit Treestands, Texas Hunter Products, Knight & Hale Game Calls, Code Blue Scents, Whitetail Institute, Ani-Logics Outdoors, and MAXXTUFF.


This is a rotating-priority role, with focus shifting towards different brands as seasons change. Turkey season, spring/fall food plot planting windows, pre-season preparation, the rut, and year-round land management each pull a different brand to the front of the calendar. The Social Media Specialist is responsible for building and running that staggered calendar, capturing and editing content in the field and in-house, publishing daily, engaging the community, and reporting on performance.


This position owns organic content and community; paid social and boosting are handled separately, though this role's content and insights inform them. It reports to the Digital Marketing Manager and requires strategic thinking, hands-on creative ability, and comfort switching between distinct brand voices and audiences. This position requires timely responses, accurate information, and flawless content delivery. The person in this role takes pride in being the one who keeps the brand's presence sharp, reliable, and aligned with its identity. This role requires someone who thrives on accountability, cares deeply about the consumer, and treats each brand voice as a professional standard to uphold.

• Evaluate and pilot emerging platforms and formats as audience behavior shifts, and recommend where the brands should expand
• Engage with and respond to comments, messages, and reviews; moderate community discussion and escalate product, warranty, or service issues appropriately
