Artist Social Media & Digital Presence Assistant

I am a professional contemporary artist and illustrator seeking a proactive, social-media-savvy Artist Social Media & Digital Presence Assistant to help strengthen the online foundation of my art practice. The most important part of this role is social media planning and execution from raw content. I will provide raw materials such as artwork photos, studio images, process videos, short clips, exhibition updates, notes, and ideas. I am looking for someone who can review that material, suggest content themes, create a posting plan, draft captions, organize a content calendar, repurpose assets for Instagram/TikTok, and help keep posting consistent. This role may also include Squarespace website updates, online portfolio organization, artwork/digital asset organization, and simple creative business systems. Ideal candidates should have strong social media instincts, good visual judgment, excellent written communication, and the ability to take initiative rather than waiting for every post to be dictated in detail. A skilled college student, recent graduate, or early-career creative is welcome to apply if they have strong examples of content, portfolio work, social media planning, or creative organization. Experience with artists, creative businesses, galleries, visual portfolios, Instagram, TikTok, Canva, CapCut, Squarespace, Notion, Airtable, or Google Sheets is a plus. This is an initial 6-week trial engagement, approximately 6-8 hours per week. Suggested budget is approximately $1,200-$1,500 for a strong student/recent graduate or $1,500-$2,000 for someone with stronger social media strategy, scheduling, Squarespace, and portfolio experience. If the collaboration is successful, there is potential for ongoing work, increased hours, and a larger budget over time. To apply, please begin your proposal with the words "Creative Growth - Social Media" and include examples of social media content, reels, TikToks, captions, content calendars, or accounts you have created or managed. Please also include your Squarespace experience, relevant portfolio or website examples if available, your hourly rate, availability, and how you would turn raw artwork/studio content into a 4-6 week posting plan.
