Social Media Manager

What this is

We’re an independent 2A media network with the culture in mind — grown audience, built around real conversation. The flagship show drops weekly and the back catalog is full of clips that should be living a second life on social. We need someone to own that — not just schedule posts, but actually make the network’s social presence feel like the network.

What you’ll own

• Short-form video. Pull moments from every long-form episode, cut them, caption them, and ship them. IG Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts. Volume matters; so does taste.
• Captions that hit. No corporate copy. No “Tag a friend who needs to hear this.” Write like a person who actually watched the episode and has something to say.
• Posting cadence. Daily across IG and TikTok, weekly long-form on YouTube, regular drops in the Discord and Facebook Group.
• Community. Reply to comments. Notice who shows up. Loop the hosts in when something deserves a response from them, not the brand account.
• Content calendar. Coordinate with the producer on episode releases, guest spotlights, event promo, and merch drops.
• Light reporting. A short monthly read on what worked, what didn’t, what to test next. Numbers matter, but not the vanity ones.

What you bring

• You can edit short-form video yourself. CapCut, Premiere, DaVinci — whatever you’re fluent in. We’re not handing you raw footage and waiting six weeks.
• You understand the 2A community. Or you’re willing to learn it deep. We’re not “tactical-bro” and we’re not anti-2A. There’s a real space in between and it has its own language.
• You write in the brand’s voice, not yours. Confident, grown, no posturing. Read a couple of our episode descriptions; you’ll know what we mean.
• You ship. This isn’t a “let’s circle back” role. We move weekly.

What we’re not looking for

• AI-generated captions. Tools are fine; output that sounds like ChatGPT is a hard pass.
• Agency engagement-bait playbooks (“Comment ‘GUN’ to learn more!”). Our audience can smell that from a block away.
• Schedulers. We can buy a tool. We’re hiring a person.

Logistics

• Type: Contract to start, with a path to ongoing if we click.
• Hours: Roughly 15–20/week for the right person. Asynchronous; one weekly call with the producer.
• Location: Anywhere in the US. Bonus if you can get to a meetup occasionally.
• Comp: Let’s talk. We pay fair for the right person.

How to apply

Send us a short email at the address below with:

1. A one-paragraph intro — who you are, why this network specifically, not a cover letter
2. Three short-form clips you’ve cut (links are fine — IG, TikTok, anywhere)
3. One example of a caption you’d write for an episode of We Da People Podcast (pick any episode, pretend you’re posting the clip)

If your work fits the network, we’ll be in touch fast.
