Summary

We need someone reliable to turn this raw material into a consistent, high-performing social presence. What You’ll Be Doing • Edit and post content to TikTok and Instagram (Reels + Stories + Feed) — minimum 4-5 posts per week across platforms • Take raw footage we provide (comedian videos, app demos, business spotlights, founder content) and turn it into polished, scroll-stopping short-form video • Write engaging captions and hashtag strategy in French (Wolof a strong plus) • Maintain a content calendar and stick to a consistent posting schedule • Monitor comments/DMs and flag engagement opportunities • Provide weekly performance reports (views, engagement, follower growth) • Suggest content ideas/trends relevant to a Senegalese and diaspora audience What We Need From You • Proven experience growing or managing TikTok/Instagram accounts — please share specific examples (account name if public, follower growth numbers, your role) • Strong short-form video editing skills (CapCut, Premiere, InShot, etc.) • Fluent French required; Wolof and/or English a strong plus • Reliable daily availability — this is NOT a once-a-week task • Based anywhere — this role is fully remote, no need to be in Senegal • Understanding of West African, Senegalese, or diaspora audiences is a major plus How We’ll Work Together • Paid trial period first: 2 weeks, fixed budget, clear deliverables (5+ posts using content we provide) before any ongoing commitment • Daily/weekly check-ins via WhatsApp • All content reviewed and approved by founder before publishing • Ongoing role available for the right fit, with scope growing alongside the business through the Olympics period To Apply, Please Include 1. Links to 2-3 examples of TikTok/Instagram content you’ve created or managed (with results if possible) 2. A short note on how you’d approach the first week of content for a brand like Senefinder 3. Your availability (hours/week) and timezone Looking for someone who can start within the next few days. Serious, reliable applicants only — we’ve had a couple of false starts and are looking for someone who treats this as a real ongoing role, not a side gig.
