Social Media Manager (Trading / Options Niche)

Posted yesterday

Worldwide

Summary

I’m looking for a social media manager who can take real ownership of our growth in the trading/options niche – not just repurpose content, but also research, ideate, and execute.

You’ll be responsible for daily content across:

X (Twitter) – threads + short tweets

Instagram & Meta – Reels, carousels, image posts

YouTube – community posts

Substack – Notes / short posts

Plus 2 email broadcasts per week to our list

What you’ll do

Create and post daily content across all platforms

Do market and content research:

What’s trending in trading/options

What other top creators are posting

Common questions, mistakes, and myths

Come up with original post ideas and angles (not just repurposing)

Repurpose my long-form content (articles, videos, emails) into:

X threads + tweets

IG/FB Reels, carousels, and posts

YouTube community posts

Substack Notes

Write and send 2 email broadcasts per week (value-first, educational, with clear CTAs)

Be creative and design carousels and images and come up with new ideas to gain subscribers and followers

Build a simple content calendar so we’re consistent week after week

Track basic metrics (followers, subscribers, opens, clicks, engagement) and send a short weekly summary of what’s working

Requirements

Experience managing social media + email for a brand, creator, or newsletter

Strong interest or background in trading / finance (options experience is a big plus)

You’re comfortable doing topic research and pitching your own content ideas

Strong written English, clear and educational style

Reliable with daily posting and weekly reporting

How to Apply

Please include:

A short intro and your experience with trading/finance content

3–5 links to social accounts, posts, or emails you’ve written or managed

A brief outline (5–8 bullet points) of how you’d grow X, IG, and the email list over the next 90 days

This is a long-term role paid via Upwork (hourly or monthly retainer, depending on experience).
