Job description

Sloane Strategy believes in the power of collaboration to create exceptional social media platforms and tailored marketing collateral. As an extension of our clients' teams, we immerse ourselves in their vision and goals to develop a social media presence that exceeds expectations. Our innovative approach ensures the final result aligns with each client's creative vision and reflects their unique brand identity. We work collaboratively to refine and fine-tune each company's presence, leaving no detail overlooked. As a growing boutique marketing agency, our work spans social media strategy and management, content production, paid media, branding, web design, and digital marketing across a diverse portfolio of clients and industries.

The Role

Sloane Strategy is seeking a Social Content & Production Manager to take full ownership of the agency's content production process while supporting accounts across organic social, paid media, account management, strategy, and agency operations. The primary focus of this position is content production and execution.

Outside of production, this is intentionally a cross-functional role. The ideal candidate is a cross functional marketing candidate who understands how content fits into a larger digital strategy and is comfortable contributing across the different services Sloane Strategy provides. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys variety, wants significant autonomy over their work, is videography/photography trained, and is excited by the opportunity to grow alongside a boutique agency.
