Qualifications: - Familiarity with Instagram, TikTok, RedNote, and other social media platforms. - Strong understanding of social media algorithms, either through personal content creation or professional experience. - Excellent organizational and time management skills. - Comfortable speaking on camera and participating in content creation when needed. - Strong written communication skills for influencer outreach and professional correspondence. - Self-motivated, dependable, and able to work independently while meeting deadlines. - Flexible availability and responsive communication. - Interest in food, restaurants, and digital content is a strong plus. If you're passionate about social media, love creating engaging content, and enjoy helping brands grow online, we'd love to hear from you. Please include examples of social media accounts you've managed or created (personal or professional) along with your application.
