Social Media Content Manager

Overview

We’re looking for a creative, platform-native Social Content Manager to join our growing marketing team. This is an opportunity to help shape and elevate social media for ambitious brands across industries like finance, e-commerce, food & beverage, and professional services.

In this role, you’ll be the hands-on lead for day-to-day social execution — developing content calendars, creating platform-specific posts, and producing native social media content that engages, educates, and excites audiences. You’ll work closely with strategy, creative, and client service teams to ensure every post is on-brand, culturally relevant, and optimized for performance.

You should have experience managing multi-channel organic social media for consumer-facing brands, with a strong pulse on what works across TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook, and YouTube. You’re equally comfortable brainstorming campaign ideas, producing scrappy in-app TikToks or Reels, and coordinating with designers or copywriters to polish larger campaigns.

This is a hybrid role where creativity meets execution — part content producer, part social strategist, part storyteller.

Hybrid position. Reports to VP of Growth.

What You’ll Do

As a Social Content Manager at Anchour, you’ll bring brands to life on social — creating, publishing, and optimizing content that feels native, culturally relevant, and impossible to scroll past. You’ll own the calendar, generate fresh ideas, and produce original posts that resonate across industries like finance, retail, food & beverage, and beyond.

You’ll be equal parts creator and strategist: producing platform-specific content yourself while collaborating with designers, copywriters, and motion artists to deliver larger campaigns. You’ll stay ahead of cultural shifts and platform trends across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, and Facebook — ensuring our clients are not just keeping up, but leading the conversation.

Strategy & Planning

• Develop and manage monthly content calendars across multiple client accounts.
• Translate brand goals into smart content pillars, posting cadences, and campaign ideas.
• Spot and interpret cultural trends and emerging formats to keep content fresh, relevant, and timely.

Execution & Collaboration

• Produce platform-native posts (TikToks, Reels, Stories, Shorts, carousels).
• Capture and edit light content (in-app video, phone-first capture).
• Collaborate with designers, motion, and copywriters to deliver polished, campaign-level creative.
• Schedule and publish posts in Sprout Social or directly in-platform, ensuring each piece feels tailored for its audience.

Optimization & Engagement

• Track performance weekly and surface insights that lead to measurable engagement and growth.
• Experiment with new formats, captions, and visuals to continually refine content strategies.
• Monitor comments, mentions, and DMs to identify opportunities for proactive engagement and storytelling.

What We’d Like To See

• 3–5+ years of experience managing multi-channel organic social media (agency or brand side), with proven results in driving engagement and growth.
• A strong portfolio or work samples that showcase platform-native content (TikToks, Reels, Shorts, Stories, carousels) you’ve created and managed.
• Hands-on ability to ideate, film, edit, and publish social-first content — from scrappy in-app video edits to polished campaign assets.
• Strong understanding of how to translate brand strategy into channel-specific content pillars, cadences, and messaging frameworks.
• Demonstrated ability to spot and interpret trends, memes, and cultural moments — and connect them to brand storytelling in a way that feels authentic.
• Experience working within scheduling and publishing tools (Sprout Social, Later, Hootsuite, etc.), as well as light community management.
• Comfort collaborating with designers, copywriters, and motion artists to produce larger campaigns, while also owning your own scrappy content production.
• Knowledge of social analytics and the ability to interpret performance metrics to optimize creative approaches.
• Familiarity with paid social is a plus (boosting, audience targeting, campaign setup).
• Practical knowledge of how to use AI tools for research, ideas, and efficiency, and just as importantly, when not to use them or how to refine AI outputs into original work.
• Clear, confident communication — able to pitch ideas, present content calendars, and explain creative decisions to both clients and internal teams.

What You’ll Get

• Competitive Salary.
• Work remotely. Live and work wherever you like.
• Retirement. Savings plan with a 4% company match.
• Premium Insurance. Premium health, dental, vision, and life insurance with generous coverage for our US-based team members.
• Optional HSA. An optional health savings account (HSA) for employees to set aside money on a pre-tax basis for medical expenses.
• Home Office Setup. Get a laptop and home office equipment.
• Paid & Flexible Holidays. 12 paid holidays throughout the year, including three flexible holidays.
• Paid Time Off. Minimum three weeks of paid time off per year.
• Paid Leaves. Paid parental, medical, bereavement, and other types of leave.
• Flexible & Summer Fridays. Half-day Fridays throughout the summer, and a get-it-done-and-go mindset year-round.

• Baby Bonding Bucks. $500 bonus to cover diapers, meals, or other baby-related expenses for any employee welcoming a new child
