Social Media Assistant - remote

Get The Guy
Posted 3 years ago
Are you a high energy, positive person with a friendly demeanor in writing and online? Do you thrive on working independently and maintain top-level discipline and reliability when there’s no boss looking over your shoulder? Do you have experience managing a TikTok account professionally and keeping up with the latest trends? Would you be psyched to help support a community of smart, successful women seeking dating, relationship, and confidence advice? 

You might be the Social Media Assistant we’re looking for!

This is a bit of a hybrid role that requires an organized self-starter with a high level of detail orientation. You’ll be working independently to manage our TikTok account by selecting and cutting clips, preparing them for TikTok, publishing them according to best posting times and practices, as well as sharing feedback on newest trends, performance and changes with the team. In addition to this, you’ll be working closely with our Head of Social to prepare, update and organize assets for use across the content department. You’ll need to be responsive, reliable, and capable of keeping yourself disciplined. You’ll be responsible for posting twice daily on TikTok, and updating the Content Calendar in Asana with scheduling decisions for the social team to review.

It is essential that you can commit to being online starting at 10 AM Eastern Time from Monday to Friday. Content tasks can be completed during weekdays, however you will still be expected to post two TikTok videos per day on weekends. You won’t need to be handcuffed to your desk, but you will need to be reliably checking in and handling content pieces that need addressing, as well as communicating with our social media manager about any issues on TikTok.

You’ll also be handling some content archiving, and this is where your detail orientation and independent discipline will shine. You’ll keep accurate records of our social media posts as well as correctly cataloging and updating our YouTube videos based on pre-determined criteria. We will train you, but once we have, you’ll have fairly free rein over when this happens. If you’re a bit OCD and love the challenge of categorizing appropriately, this stuff will be a breeze.

The qualities we’re looking for include:

– Detail orientation;show us you care about getting the finer points right (like proper spelling of names and clean formatting for readability)
– Highly communicative and reliable, high digital availability
– Passion for the work we do and our community
– Extremely disciplined, with high ability and desire to work independently;you will not have someone looking over your shoulder, but the work must get done all the same! We will hold you accountable.
– Prior experience as a freelancer preferred
– Prior experience managing a TikTok account for a brand or public figure preferred
– Social media management experience a plus

Responsibilities include:

– Comment production, scheduling and management on TikTok
– Double checking social media posts to make sure everything is working &looks beautiful
– Keeping detailed archive of social media posts, including the original assets
– Accurate cataloging of all YouTube videos 
– Content creation working alongside Editorial, Design and Social teams

Make an impact – help women level-up in their relationships, self-esteem, and happiness.

HOURS

This role is part-time freelance for 15 hours per week. The majority of those hours will be week day hours with some activity on weekends for posting TikTok content. Aside from this, your week day tasks include independent content archiving work, content prep and any team meetings necessary. There is some potential for growth if you impress us, but this is unlikely to be a full-time role anytime soon.

To be considered, please write a cover letter to social@matthewhussey.com as to why you’d be a good fit in the body of your email. DO NOT send a CV or other attachments (if you attach ANYTHING to it, your application will automatically not be read).
