Were looking for a sharp, highly organized, and culturally fluent team member to support our Project Manager / Head of Production and Social Content Strategist, strengthening the Production teams operational backbone by maintaining operational order, coordinating details, and helping creative ideas turn into reliable, on-time execution across content, campaigns, and projects.

This hybrid role blends Social Media Coordination, Marketing Assistance, and Production Operations to support content execution, campaign coordination, internal workflows, and system accuracy.

You'll work across content calendars, editorial and publishing support, brand alignment, and cross-team communication, ensuring everything runs smoothly, on brand, and on time.You are both creative and highly structured: someone who can support editorial processes while maintaining clean systems, clear follow-ups, and strong attention to detail.
