Instagram Content Designer
Worldwide
I’m looking for a creative and reliable Instagram content designer/social media coordinator to support my personal brand. This role is ideal for someone who can take a simple voice memo, pull out strong content ideas, and turn them into engaging carousel posts with little hand-holding. I do not need someone who waits for every detail or needs constant direction. I need someone who can think strategically, understand the message, and help bring the content to life. Each week, I will provide a voice memo with thoughts, ideas, updates, stories, or lessons. From that memo, you will be responsible for identifying strong carousel topics, writing/designing the carousel posts, and preparing them for Instagram. I will also record reels once a week. We already have a video editor, so you will work with the editor to help make sure the reels are aligned with the overall content strategy. You will also be responsible for designing reel covers that match the brand and help improve click-through. Responsibilities include: * Listen to weekly voice memos and pull out strong content ideas * Create Instagram carousel posts for my personal brand * Develop carousel concepts with minimal direction * Write carousel copy that is clear, engaging, and aligned with my voice * Design clean, elevated carousel graphics (mainly text on image) * Coordinate with the video editor on weekly reels * Design reel covers * Post Instagram content * Write captions when needed * Engage with comments and relevant accounts to help grow visibility * Help keep the content organized and consistent week to week The right person should be: * Strong at turning rough ideas into polished content * Creative and proactive * Able to work with little direction * Familiar with Instagram content strategy, especially carousels and reels * Good at writing short-form educational or storytelling content * Comfortable working from voice memos * Organized and consistent with deadlines * Able to match an existing brand style * Comfortable collaborating with a video editor This is for a personal brand, so the content should feel thoughtful, human, and aligned with my voice, not generic or overly templated. Experience with Canva, Instagram, content planning, carousel design, and social media engagement is preferred. Please include examples of carousel posts you have created, especially for personal brands, founders, coaches, consultants, or service-based business owners. To apply, please answer the following: 1. Share 2–3 carousel examples you’ve created. 2. Tell me how you would turn a 5–10 minute voice memo into content ideas. 3. Share your weekly availability. 4. Let me know if you have experience coordinating with video editors or managing reel covers.
