• Community & Platform Management
  • Manage posting, engagement, and platform performance
  • Join conversations across sports, markets, and culture in a timely, relevant way

  • Test new formats, ideas, and creative approaches
  • Continuously improve what works — and move fast

Requirements

• 3–5+ years in social/content (brand or personal)
• Strong filming + editing skills
• Excellent social copywriting skills, with the ability to write sharp, engaging, platform‑native content (particularly for X and LinkedIn), including threads, commentary, and reactive posts on market trends.
• Deep understanding of what works on modern platforms
• Ability to simplify complex ideas into engaging content
• Strong interest in trading, investing, or financial markets, with the curiosity and ability to quickly build informed perspectives.
• Experienced using tools such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Midjourney, After effects, Figma, or similar, with a focus on creating and editing content quickly and independently.
• Comfortable being hands‑on and moving quickly
• Bonus
  • Experience in fintech, trading, or financial services.
  • Built or grown your own social presence.
  • Familiarity with compliance and regulatory considerations in financial marketing.
