POSITION OVERVIEW

PMG is seeking a Senior Social Content + Marketing Strategist to lead social media strategy and execution for some of our largest client accounts, including enterprise, healthcare, and national consumer brands.

This role requires an experienced social media strategist (5+ years) who can own multi-brand, multi-platform portfolios end to end. You’ll build content calendars, capture photo and video on-site, write social-first copy, manage communities, run partner and influencer collaborations, and turn monthly analytics into clear recommendations clients act on.

The ideal candidate is both strategic and creative: someone who treats client accounts like their own brands, stays organized under high volume, brings ideas before clients ask, and can shoot the video, write the hook, and explain why it worked in the monthly report.

This role operates as a trusted social partner to PMG clients and an extension of their marketing teams, while also supporting PMG’s social team through shared processes, platform expertise, and coverage.

Candidates with agency experience managing high-volume social accounts for enterprise, healthcare, automotive/RV, travel, or membership organizations are especially encouraged to apply.
