Senior Social Media Manager & Strategist

Remote | Independent Contractor | Part-Time with Opportunity to Grow

We're looking for someone who knows how to take ownership.

Everlign Social is a growing marketing agency working with established brands across a variety of industries. We're looking for an experienced Senior Social Media Manager & Strategist who can confidently lead client accounts, develop thoughtful strategies, and execute exceptional content.

This is a hands-on, senior-level role for someone who understands both the strategic and creative sides of social media marketing.

We're looking for someone who doesn't just know how to create great content, but understands why that content matters, how it supports business objectives, and what makes it effective.

If you're highly organized, creatively driven, strategically minded, and thrive in an environment where you're trusted to take ownership, we'd love to hear from you.

About the Role

You'll be responsible for independently managing multiple client accounts, from strategy and content development to execution, client communication, and performance optimization.

You'll work closely with our leadership team while having the autonomy to manage your responsibilities, make informed decisions, and proactively identify opportunities for improvement.

This is not a strategy-only or account management-only position. We're looking for someone who can confidently manage the full social media process while remaining hands-on with content creation, design, copywriting, and video editing.

The ideal candidate can balance big-picture thinking with the details required to execute at a high level.

What You'll Be Responsible For

- Translate business goals into actionable content plans.
- Identify opportunities for growth, engagement, and improved performance.
- Provide strategic recommendations supported by insights and data.

Client & Account Management
- Independently manage multiple client accounts and competing priorities.
- Oversee content calendars, deliverables, approvals, and publishing schedules.

- Participate in client meetings and confidently communicate ideas, recommendations, and updates.
- Proactively identify challenges, provide solutions, and keep projects moving forward.

Content Creation & Creative Direction
- Develop compelling, on-brand content across multiple platforms.
- Design high-quality static graphics and carousel posts using Canva.
- Plan, create, and edit engaging short-form video content, including Instagram Reels and TikToks.
- Maintain a solid understanding of visual identity, brand consistency, and creative best practices.




- Bring fresh ideas and original creative concepts to client accounts.

Copywriting & Brand Messaging
- Write engaging, strategic captions and social media copy.
- Adapt messaging, tone, and creative direction across different brands and industries.
- Develop strong hooks, storytelling concepts, and calls to action.
- Ensure content is both creatively compelling and aligned with broader marketing objectives.

Analytics & Optimization
- Monitor account performance and identify meaningful insights.
- Prepare performance reports and communicate results.
- Translate data into actionable recommendations.
- Continuously refine content strategies based on performance and evolving client objectives.

What We're Looking For Required Experience & Skills
- Proven professional experience managing social media accounts within a marketing agency, ideally with 3+ years of relevant experience.
- Demonstrated ability to independently manage multiple client accounts simultaneously.
- Robust understanding of social media strategy, content marketing, and platform best practices.
- Excellent graphic design skills, particularly in Canva.
- Strong short-form video editing abilities using CapCut, Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro, or similar software.
- Exceptional copywriting skills and the ability to adapt to different brand voices.
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage competing priorities.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Confidence communicating directly with clients.
- A proactive, solutions-oriented approach to work.
- Ability to manage projects independently, maintain accountability, and deliver high-quality work within established timelines.

Please note: This is a senior-level position. We're looking for someone who already has the experience and technical skills to manage accounts independently, rather than someone seeking training in the fundamentals of social media management.
