Job description

About Slay Markets

Slay Markets is a modern brokerage built to make trading accessible to everyone. We're a futures brokerage operating under the Tradeify umbrella, in partnership with NinjaTrader, and we're now expanding into prediction markets. Our clients get research tools, real-time data, and an experience that works the way it should.

We're a growing team of people who care about getting things right, and we hold ourselves to a high standard of integrity.

About the Role

We're looking for a Social Media Associate to take full ownership of Slay Markets' social media presence, specifically Instagram and X. You'll be both strategic and hands-on, managing the process from concept to publication without needing constant direction. You'll know the brokerage space well enough to create content that is accurate and relevant to traders, and you'll work with our design and video teams to bring ideas to life.

What You'll Do

• Social Media Strategy & Ideation: Develop and execute a social strategy tailored to Slay Markets, including content ideation, identifying growth opportunities, and staying on top of relevant industry trends

• Content Planning & Calendars: Own the content calendar from start to finish, ensuring a consistent publishing cadence across Instagram and X

• Content Creation & Copywriting: Write engaging, platform-specific copy, develop creative briefs, and work with our design and video teams (and UGC creators) to produce short-form video and other content

• Scheduling & Publishing: Manage the day-to-day execution of content, including scheduling, publishing, and optimizing posts

• Community Management: Own engagement across both channels, including responding to comments, interacting with the trading community, and identifying opportunities to build brand awareness

• Performance & Reporting: Monitor social performance, identify what's working, and make strategic adjustments to improve reach, engagement, and growth

• Support the development of marketing collateral, including one-pagers, explainers, guides, and email and landing page assets

• Keep all content consistent with brand voice and compliant with company guidelines

What We’re Looking For

• Based in the United States

• 1-2 years of experience in social media, content, or marketing, ideally for a brokerage, trading, or fintech brand

• A strong understanding of the financial brokerage space, ideally with familiarity with futures trading and retail brokerages

• Proven experience managing and growing brand social channels, especially Instagram and X

• Ability to own strategy, ideation, execution, and day-to-day management independently

• Strong writing and copywriting skills, with a good sense of what performs on each platform

• Experience writing creative briefs and working with design and video teams

• Comfort with social scheduling and analytics tools

• Organized, self-directed, and comfortable working quickly in a fast-paced environment

Nice to Have

• Experience with, or familiarity with, prediction markets

• Experience working with UGC creators

• Basic design or video editing skills (Canva, CapCut, or similar)

• Experience engaging with trading communities on X

What We Offer

• Join a professional-grade trading firm at a pivotal stage of growth

• Work with and learn from experienced traders across multiple asset classes

• High-performance culture that rewards ownership, curiosity, and results

• Access to premium market data tools, exchange infrastructure, and industry resources

• Competitive base salary, performance bonuses, and comprehensive benefits

Why Join Slay Markets

• Own the social presence of a brokerage as it launches prediction markets

• A small team where your input gets used

• A clear path to grow as the firm scales

• Performance bonus

• Medical, dental, vision, and 401(k) with employer match
