About Us

We’re the team behind Hafu Go, one of the Top 5 fastest-growing YouTube channels in Canada, with 11M+ subscribers and over 3B views worldwide. Our content racks up 300M+ views every month, blending science, tech, and chaos into some of the internet’s most viral experiments.

Now, we’re expanding beyond YouTube, building platform-native social content and launching new profiles. This is your chance to shape a major brand from the ground up.

The Role

We’re hiring a Social Media Manager to lead strategy, creation, publishing, and growth across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, Snapchat, Threads, and new social brand profiles. You’ll create original short-form content, track trends, build cross-platform presence, and lead creator collaboration strategies to grow reach and cultural relevance. This is a content-first, brand-building role with full ownership over a growing social vertical.

Key Responsibilities

1. Original Content Creation

• Ideate and pitch platform-native short-form content
• Film and edit social-first videos (not YouTube repurposing)
• Record and publish behind-the-scenes and studio moments
• React to fast-moving trends with quick-turn content
• Use CapCut, Premiere, or similar tools to edit daily content

Publishing & Channel Growth

• Manage all posts across TikTok, Instagram, Shorts, and Threads
• Launch and grow new social profiles from scratch
• Maintain a weekly publishing schedule and platform roadmap
• Write sharp, engaging, brand-aligned captions and headlines
• Track analytics, test content formats, and adapt strategy accordingly

Trend Spotting & Cultural Relevance

• Monitor social platforms daily for emerging memes, sounds, and formats
• Propose reactive ideas tied to viral moments
• Stay current on algorithm shifts and evolving platform tools
• Maintain a rolling bank of trend ideas and viral concepts
• Identify creators to collaborate with based on tone, audience, or relevance
• Pitch duets, stitches, collab formats, and cross-post ideas
• Coordinate logistics for in-person or remote collaborations
• Track impact of collabs on audience growth and reach
• Act as a liaison between the brand and other creators to facilitate authentic crossovers

Community & Brand Voice

• Monitor and engage with followers across platforms
• Highlight notable comments or community reactions
• Maintain brand voice and tone across all public interactions
• Collaborate with the creator to ensure direction and voice stay consistent

Requirements

• 2+ years experience in social media content creation and platform strategy
• Strong creative instincts and editing ability for short-form video
• Deep knowledge of TikTok, Instagram, Shorts, and internet culture
• Track record launching and growing social profiles or content brands
• Excellent writing and hook ideation skills
• Experience working with or around creators and influencers
• Toronto-based and available for in-person filming and coordination

What You Get

• A high-ownership role on one of Canada’s fastest-growing content teams
• Direct mentorship and hands-on training from a creator with 11M+ subscribers and billions of views
• Access to a behind-the-scenes world most creators never show — including idea development, high-concept shoots, and viral packaging strategy
• Opportunities to film in unique environments, experiment with big ideas, and move fast on culturally relevant content
• A front-row seat to how high-performance creator businesses operate at scale
