Job summary

Dream Three is seeking a hands-on freelance Social Media Manager to craft compelling content for projects and brands. You’ll identify standout moments, develop concepts, and shape assets with quality, audience insights, and brand voice, managing each piece through approval and publication.

You’ll plan original content, handle light capture within scope, and own the editorial proposal and day-to-day delivery. This execution-focused role rewards creative judgment and reliability.

Qualifications

  • Ability to manage the end-to-end workflow: concept to publication.
  • Create original social content and repurpose existing material while meeting deadlines.
  • Practical analytical judgment to translate data into actionable edits.
  • Strong writing skills and ability to adapt brand voices.
  • Professional discretion, organization, adaptability, and reliable follow-through.

Responsibilities

  • Editorial Planning: Translate approved brand direction into a practical calendar and source selections, original concepts, and editorial proposals.
  • Content Production + Packaging: Work with existing and newly captured material: select moments, edit short‑form video, and prepare accurate captions, titles, covers, and platform‑specific versions.
  • Capture: Plan and capture lightweight original or event content when included in the agreed scope, with location, resources, and delivery requirements confirmed in advance.
  • Workflow + Approvals: Prepare batch review packs, consolidate feedback, maintain approved versions, and distinguish quality control from permission to publish.
  • Publishing: Schedule and publish authorized content; verify the correct brand channels, formats, captions, links, tags, thumbnails, accessibility, metadata, and live results.
  • Community: Manage routine engagement within agreed coverage and response guidance; elevate sensitive, commercial, or reputational issues.
  • Performance Learning: Track relevant content and channel results; provide a concise monthly report outlining specific improvements to test.
  • Access + File Hygiene: Maintain source and project files and publishing records, and flag permission or security issues.
