When you come across good social media content, do you watch it dance? In harmony, in rhythm; creating a seamless all-encompassing brand experience? Do you take a moment to enjoy the consistency and level of effort someone has gone to in crafting that content? If you do, then that's just one part of content marketing, specifically social media strategy and execution, we find beautiful. The other part we find equally awesome is when promoted content on social media feels natural, human and just downright awesome. Promoting content that appears effortless though, requires deliberate thought and purpose.
We're looking for a senior content strategist who wants to do something epic and help us build. You have solid experience in this area, yes the job title we've used is that of a specialist, but you don't trade off that. Your work speaks for itself.

You do that through collaborating with teammates, facilitating strategies and executing awesome work.

The growth opportunities for this role are only limited by your initiative and imagination.
