• Demonstrate experience in building and cultivating a social media following starting from a small baseline, and expanding that following quickly and steadily.
• Be able to design a sophisticated social media strategy that will generate sustainable short- and long-term growth, with an eye toward attracting followers that might not otherwise know about our work.
• Be adept at acquiring and editing high-quality images, gifs and video to create vibrant, eye-catching social media content.
• Have strong writing skills and an engaging voice, but also be able calibrate their writing style to reflect our tone.
• Know the rules of grammar, spelling and punctuation, and be able to apply those rules reliably.
• Know how to analyse traffic stats and other analytics, and use that data to continuously modify and improve the social media strategy and our day-to-day social media decision-making.
• Be enthusiastic about working closely with a creative team to contribute original ideas, and develop and discuss those and other ideas collaboratively.
• Be able to develop unique live social media events that engage our audience.
• Demonstrate a nuanced understanding of marketing and brand development in the context of social media and journalism.
