Content Creator + Social Media Manager

Content Creator + Social Media Manager Knack Digital Marketing | 25-30 hours a week | Hybrid

About the Role

Knack Digital Marketing is a boutique social media and content strategy agency with over 50 years of combined experience helping small and medium-sized businesses grow their reach, revenue, and online presence. The team is small by design, intentional by nature, and built around doing the work exceptionally well for a select group of clients who trust us with their brand.

This role sits at the intersection of strategy and execution. The right person can shoot and edit a compelling Reel on Tuesday, build a client content calendar on Wednesday, and analyze what actually performed by Friday. This is not a scheduler role. This is a builder role.

What You'll Do

• Shoot, edit, and produce short-form video content for client accounts across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, including Reels, YouTube videos, and branded content series
• Travel to client locations for on-site content shoots as needed
• Manage and execute social media strategy for a portfolio of client accounts, including content calendars, caption writing, scheduling, and community management
• Assist with photography for clients and agency content when needed
• Collaborate on strategy development, bringing platform-specific knowledge and data-driven recommendations to the table
• Support the production and repurposing pipeline: turning one YouTube video into clips, carousels, and email teasers
• Track performance metrics and contribute to monthly reporting with a focus on what moved the needle
• Stay ahead of platform changes, trending formats, and what's actually working for small business accounts, not just what's popular

What You Bring

• 3 to 5 years of experience in social media management and content creation, with a portfolio that shows range and results
• Strong video editing skills: comfortable in CapCut, Adobe Premiere, or equivalent tools and able to produce polished short-form content without a production team behind you
• Photography skills sufficient for brand content and behind-the-scenes production
• Demonstrated understanding of what performs on Instagram and TikTok specifically, with the data to back it up
• Caption and copy writing that sounds like a real person and fits a brand voice
• Ability to manage multiple client accounts simultaneously without letting anything slip
• Reliable transportation and comfort with local travel for client content shoots
• Paid social experience (Meta Ads) is a strong bonus

The Honest Version of This Role

The team moves fast and operates lean. Clients trust Knack with their brands because the work is strategic, not templated. That means this role requires real ownership: not waiting to be told what to post, but knowing why a piece of content should exist before it gets made. There is room to grow here, contribute to how Knack operates, and build something alongside a team that takes the work seriously.

Hours and Compensation

This is a hybrid position ranging from 23 to 30 hours per week depending on client volume and shoot schedules. Compensation is competitive and commensurate with experience. $29-35/hour

Pay: $30.00 - $35.00 per hour

Benefits:

• Flexible schedule
