• Work closely with the Content Team to identify and develop topical content based on audience trends, digital conversations, and what’s currently trending in the co-parenting space, including legal and social developments.
• Tailor content and engagement strategy by channel, including leveraging LinkedIn for B2B communication and relationship-building with the family law professional community.
• Coordinate creation and publishing of engaging content (copy, graphics, short-form video), ensuring strong storytelling, clear CTAs, and platform-native best practices.
• Bring a community-building mindset to daily social; coordinate with internal teams on responses and engagement as needed.
• Collaborate with Digital Marketing on paid social strategy and creative testing to amplify high-performing content.
• Track, analyze, and report on social performance; translate insights into actionable recommendations on content topics, creative direction, and posting strategy.
• Stay current with platform trends, algorithm changes, and emerging formats; test new ideas and iterate quickly.
• Support events or time-sensitive initiatives as needed, capturing content and translating it into social-first stories.
• Spearhead and execute content calendars, Facebook events, engagement, and event coverage for additional marketing clients as needed.

Position Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Communications, Marketing, Social Media, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 5-7 years of experience in a social media role managing multiple platforms.
• Proven experience creating and distributing high-impact content that grows social communities.
• Strong partnership mindset with experience coordinating across stakeholders (internal teams and external partners/creators).
• Demonstrated ability to use social analytics to make data-driven decisions (content topics, creative direction, testing, and optimization).
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; strong editing instincts and attention to detail.
• Highly organized and adaptable; able to manage multiple deadlines and shifting priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Proactive and resourceful; comfortable taking ownership with minimal day-to-day supervision.
