Job Title

Associate Digital Strategist

Who We Are

At M Booth, we produce award-winning, culturally-resonant, and buzz-worthy campaigns that move key audiences to action.

We are relentlessly passionate about our clients and their business, whether that means developing scrappy campaigns and content that breaks through, maximizing earned to reach key audiences, leading in digital innovation and AI, or unleashing insights that unlock ideas that win in the marketplace. And we have a bold belief that our work can and should contribute to an equitable world.

Our agency was born 40 years ago with entrepreneurial roots, a people-first culture, and a passion for creativity and innovation. As we look to the future we believe our Only the Bold ethos will make a lasting impact and change.

We now have an opportunity for an Associate Digital Strategist to join our growing team and help drive social engagement, community insight, social listening and creative ideation, to help our Google brands show up in culture with relevance and resonance.

About The Role

This is the role for someone who’s extremely online in the best way. You’ve got a feel for what’s trending on TikTok or Instagram before it’s in a deck, you understand the nuance of brand tone in the comments section, and you know how to respect the “silence brand” boundary.

As an Associate Digital Strategist, you’ll be at the center of the conversation: monitoring social media, commenting, and surfacing insights that shape how our clients connect with their online communities. You’ll collaborate with designers, strategists, and client leads to bring bold social ideas to life, and learn what it takes to build brands in the fast-moving world of digital culture.

• Coordinate real-time content moments quickly and creativelyAnticipate needs and bring ideas that achieve client objectives

Work Closely with Clients

• Join client meetings to listen in on any social listening / community management / social publishing needs or shifts, as well as sharing social insights and trends in real time
• Review meeting agendas and recaps that keep everyone aligned
• Provide thoughtful perspectives and platform-informed recommendations live and via email
• Proactively respond to our client emails for the workstreams you manage
• Collaborate with clients and partners on content that authentically features the brand

Collaborate and Plan Across Teams

• Publish content, maintain content calendars, and keep cross-functional teams up to date
• Comfortable with reporting and publishing tools (we use Sprinklr) to execute content calendars
• Track performance and share learnings to inform future work
• Help translate social trends, tone shifts, and memes into actionable content ideas for weekly trendspotting recommendations

Create Content

• Develop clever posts when speed or real-time relevance matters
• Strong social copywriting skills are a must
• Work with the design team to bring posts to life
• Knowledge of AI tools (especially Gemini) is a plus in assisting with the content creation process

What You’ll Bring

• 2–4 years of experience managing social media communities on behalf of brands (internships count!)
• A strong grasp of social platforms –especially TikTok –and the recipe for what makes branded content resonate
• Solid writing and communication skills; you can channel a brand voice while still sounding human
• A proactive, detail-oriented mindset and a genuine interest in culture, social trends, and internet behavior
• A team-first attitude and excitement to learn from others
• Experience in tech brands is a plus, but curiosity is essential

What We’ll Bring

• A workplace that’s alive with creativity, respect, and humanity
• Growth opportunities and mentorship to help you build your career in social and digital strategy
• A hybrid model that balances flexibility and collaboration
• Comprehensive healthcare and wellness plans for you and your family

Our Flexible Work Policy

We believe that our best work happens in a hybrid working environment. If you are in the NYC (or commutable surrounding distance) hub we want to see you in-person 2 days a week. That could mean in our office, in our client's office, on the road with them or attending an industry event.

For those outside the NYC hub, you will be asked to be in-person, too. Examples of this may include client meetings, events or team meetings. There will also be in-person opportunities for you to connect with others who live in your hub to collaborate and work together.

If you plan on working remotely, we can accept applicants from the following states:

Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Washington D.C.
