Flamingo Social Media Manager
The Social Media Manager will plan and manage content across social media channels for Flamingo. The right candidate is a natural storyteller, culling images, stories, ideas, and inspiration from the team and translating it into a compelling content plan. You can write naturally in the Flamingo voice (curious, intelligent, funny) and push tone for what feels natively right for each channel. You live and breathe social media, with a strong perspective on how Flamingo should participate and a vision for how we can push the boundaries of how we show up.

A sense of humor necessary, a passion for beauty and personal care a plus.

- Content:
- Plan and manage social calendar across channels
- Act as an editor, sourcing content (pop culture, archive of F' images, site, other marketing assets, our community)
- Direct content when needed (brief in creative team and give input to production)
- Independently write captions with little editing (frame content, think natively for channel, brand right tone, tie back to product/mission)
- Pitch new content ideas, direct the process and partner with the marketing, community, R&D, and creative teams to bring it to life
- Strategy:
- Build a short and long term strategy for channel management and growth (for existing and new channels)
- Build reporting structure and cadence to share growth, insights, and engagement with the wider team
- Partner with influencer/community team to foster an engaged community around the brand; build a strategy to scale engagement
- Engage daily with our community (DMs, comments, likes); partner with CX to manage social CX
Qualifications:

- 5-7 years of relevant experience, including directly managing social channels (Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, SNAP, Tik Tok, Twitter) for a brand or relevant organization
- Prior experience working at a startup or similar environment
- Excellent editorial judgment, writing skills, and ability to capture Flamingo’s voice
- Analytical understanding, experience with data insights, and a working knowledge of social data tools
- A natural communicator with strong writing skills; you’re able to sell people into a vision and bring them along on your thought process and strategy
- Creative and brimming with your own ideas, while also able to help others structure thinking to prioritize theirs
- Structured and organized in your thinking. You love setting up systems to improve the way the team works.
