Social Media Manager

PageOne is building a modern news company, and we need someone who can make sure it actually looks and sounds like one everywhere it shows up.

We’re an early-stage media-tech company on a mission to rebuild trust in journalism. That means scaling fast across cities, national coverage, and founder-led content.

Specifically, you’ll own publishing and coordination across all PageOne social channels

What You’ll Do

• Manage three layers of content:
• Local city accounts
• National PageOne accounts
• Founder/company channels
• Write captions, headlines, and hooks that drive engagement without compromising credibility
• Handle day-to-day posting across platforms
• Actively manage community engagement (comments, replies, DMs)
• Ensure tone, quality, and standards stay consistent across everything
• Work closely with creators and editorial teams
• Track performance, spot trends, and adjust quickly
• Build systems that scale as we expand into new markets
• Keep the brand tight—while letting local voices breathe

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years running social for media brands or fast-growing companies
• Experience managing multiple accounts and audiences at once
• Strong writing instincts for captions and audience interaction
• Strong editorial judgment (you know what not to post)
• Comfortable with analytics and performance tracking
• Highly organized, calm under pressure, and process-driven

What Success Looks Like

• Our social presence feels cohesive—not fragmented
• Growth is consistent and intentional
• Engagement is active, thoughtful, and on-brand
• Founder and brand content reinforce each other
• Social becomes a real distribution engine—not just a feed
