• Collaborate with designers, video editors, campaigners, investigators, and cross-departmental stakeholders to deliver accurate, timely, and innovative content.
• Create compelling social-first content, including copy, short-form videos, graphics concepts, captions, threads, reels, stories, and other platform-native formats if needed.
• Help manage online community engagement, including responding to comments and messages.
• Identify opportunities to engage influencers, creators, partner organizations, and supporters.

• Proven track record of growing organic social channels and driving measurable engagement.
• Practical knowledge of paid amplification, boosting, and audience targeting and how this can extend and inform organic wins.
• Fluency in social media analytics tools and the ability to translate data into content decisions; working knowledge of how paid social boosting and audience targeting can amplify and inform organic strategy is a strong plus.
• Demonstrated ability to create engaging short-form video content and comfort appearing on camera as a representative of a mission-driven organization.
• Familiarity with Canva and other image and video editing skills is a plus.
• Creativity, adaptability, and a sharp instinct for what makes people stop scrolling, engage, share, and take action.
• Proven ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously, prioritize under pressure, and meet deadlines without sacrificing quality.
• Comfort working with sensitive content related to animal cruelty, investigations, or legal campaigns, and understanding of when messaging requires review or approval.
